Type Ia supernovae provide direct evidence for an accelerating universe, and for the existence of "dark energy" driving this expansion. The Supernova Legacy Survey (SNLS) will deliver many hundreds of SNIa detections, and well-sampled…
In this paper we use a generalized version of a method originally proposed by Holz and Wald to investigate the effects from gravitational lensing on Type Ia supernovae measurements. We find that results for different mass distributions in…
