First-year Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II (SDSS-II) Supernova Results: Hubble Diagram and Cosmological Parameters (2009)

Kessler, Richard, Becker, Andrew, Cinabro, David, Vanderplas, Jake, Frieman, Joshua A., Marriner, John, ...

We present measurements of the Hubble diagram for 103 Type Ia supernovae (SNe) with redshifts 0.04 < z < 0.42, discovered during the first season (Fall 2005) of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II...

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II: Photometry and Supernova Ia Light Curves from the 2005 data (2009)

Holtzman, Jon A., Marriner, John, Kessler, Richard, Sako, Masao, Dilday, Ben, Frieman, Joshua A., ...

We present ugriz light curves for 146 spectroscopically confirmed or spectroscopically probable Type Ia supernovae from the 2005 season of the SDSS-II Supernova survey. The light curves have been...

The Carnegie Supernova Project: First Near-Infrared Hubble Diagram to z~0.7 (2009)

Freedman, Wendy L., Burns, Christopher R., Phillips, M. M., Wyatt, Pamela, Persson, S. E., Madore, Barry F., ...

The Carnegie Supernova Project (CSP) is designed to measure the luminosity distance for Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) as a function of redshift, and to set observational constraints on the dark energy...

First-Year Spectroscopy for the SDSS-II Supernova Survey (2008)

Zheng, Chen, Romani, Roger W., Sako, Masao, Marriner, John, Bassett, Bruce, Becker, Andrew, ...

This paper presents spectroscopy of supernovae discovered in the first season of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II Supernova Survey. This program searches for and measures multi-band light curves of...

Non-parametric Dark Energy Degeneracies (2008)

Hlozek, Renée, Cortês, Marina, Clarkson, Chris, Bassett, Bruce

We study the degeneracies between dark energy dynamics, dark matter and curvature using a non-parametric and non-perturbative approach. This allows us to examine the knock-on bias induced in the...

Cosmological constraints from the SDSS luminous red galaxies (2006)

Tegmark, Max, Eisenstein, Daniel J., Strauss, Michael A., Weinberg, David H., Blanton, Michael R., Frieman, Joshua A., ...

We measure the large-scale real-space power spectrum P(k) using luminous red galaxies (LRGs) in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and use this measurement to sharpen constraints on cosmological...

Black hole production in tachyonic preheating (2006)

Suyama, Teruaki, Tanaka, Takahiro, Bassett, Bruce, Kudoh, Hideaki

We present fully non-linear simulations of a self-interacting scalar field in the early universe undergoing tachyonic preheating. We find that density perturbations on sub-horizon scales which are...

Universal fitting formulae for baryon oscillation surveys (2005)

Blake, Chris, Parkinson, David, Bassett, Bruce, Glazebrook, Karl, Kunz, Martin, Nichol, Robert C.

The next generation of galaxy surveys will attempt to measure the baryon oscillations in the clustering power spectrum with high accuracy. These oscillations encode a preferred scale which may be...

Are black holes over-produced during preheating? (2004)

Suyama, Teruaki, Tanaka, Takahiro, Bassett, Bruce, Kudoh, Hideaki

We provide a simple but robust argument that primordial black hole (PBH) production generically does {\em not} exceed astrophysical bounds during the resonant preheating phase after inflation. This...

Floquet analysis of disk instabilities and superhumps in Cataclysmic Variables (2003)

Tamburini, Fabrizio, Bassett, Bruce, Bianchini, Antonio, Franceschini, Alberto

We analyze the dynamical stability of hydrodynamical flows in the equatorial plane of a thin axisymmetric accretion disk in close binary systems. The periodic tidal forces of the companion star...

Application of the Separate Universe Approach to Preheating (2003)

Tanaka, Takahiro, Bassett, Bruce

The dynamics of preheating after inflation has not been clearly understood yet.In particular, the issue of the generation of metric perturbations during preheating on super-horizon scale is still...

[Principiantes] (2002)

Bassett, Bruce, Edney, Ralph (il.), Appignanesi, Richard (ed.)

Obra introductoria a las teorías especial y general de la relatividad, de Einstein. A través de la explicación de sus experimentos, se revisan los principales conceptos de las teorías del...

Perturbative superluminal censorship and the null energy condition (1999)

Visser, Matt, Bassett, Bruce, Liberati, Stefano

We argue that ``effective'' superluminal travel, potentially caused by the tipping over of light cones in Einstein gravity, is always associated with violations of the null energy condition (NEC)....

Covariant Analysis of Gravitational Waves in a Cosmological Context (1998)

Dunsby, Peter, Bassett, Bruce, Ellis, George

The propagation of gravitational waves or tensor perturbations in a perturbed Friedmann-Robertson-Walker universe filled with a perfect fluid is re-examined. It is shown that while the shear and...

Superluminal censorship (1998)

Visser, Matt, Bassett, Bruce, Liberati, Stefano

We argue that ``effective'' superluminal travel, potentially caused by the tipping over of light cones in Einstein gravity, is always associated with violations of the null energy condition (NEC)....
