Type Ia supernovae (SNe~Ia) are central to studies of cosmic expansion, under the assumption that their absolute magnitude $M_B$ does not evolve with redshift. Even small drifts in brightness can bias cosmological parameters such as $H_0$…
It is widely accepted that the width-luminosity relation used to standardize normal Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) breaks down in underluminous, 1991bg-like SNe Ia. This breakdown may be due to the choice of parameter used as a stand-in for…
In this paper we advance the simple analytic photometric redshift estimator for Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) proposed by Wang (2007), and use it to study simulated SN Ia data. We find that better than 0.5% accuracy in z_phot (with…

Cosmological parameter fitting remains crucial, especially with the abundance of available data. While many parameters have been tightly constrained, discrepancies-most notably the Hubble tension-persist between measurements obtained from…
Peculiar velocities of objects in the nearby universe are correlated due to the gravitational pull of large-scale structure. By measuring these velocities, we have a unique opportunity to test the cosmological model at the lowest redshifts.…

Redshift measurements, primarily obtained from host galaxies, are essential for inferring cosmological parameters from type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia). Matching SNe to host galaxies using images is non-trivial, resulting in a subset of SNe with…

Type 1a supernovae, SNeIa, are used as standard candles in cosmology for determining the distances of the galaxies harboring them. We show that the luminosity of an SNIa depends on its distance from us when physical constants (the speed of…
