We present a distance to NGC 4527, the host galaxy of the type Ia SN 1991T, measured by surface brightness fluctuations. This supernova has been labelled ``peculiar'' both on the grounds of its spectroscopic behaviour and its apparent…

The light curve of the Type Ia supernova SN1974G (in NGC4414) is important because the Hubble Space Telescope has measured the distance to the host galaxy by means of Cepheid variables and thus the Hubble Constant can be derived. Light…

We have fit the normal, well observed, Type Ia Supernova (SN Ia) SN 1994D with non-LTE spectra of the deflagration model W7. We find that well before maximum luminosity W7 fits the optical spectra of SN 1994D. After maximum brightness the…

We report the results of an [O III] lambda 5007 survey for planetary nebulae (PN) in five galaxies that were hosts of well-observed Type Ia supernovae: NGC 524, NGC 1316, NGC 1380, NGC 1448 and NGC 4526. The goals of this survey are to…

We have determined the absolute magnitude at maximum light of SN 1992A by using the turn-over magnitude of the Globular Cluster Luminosity Function of its parent galaxy, NGC 1380. A recalibration of the peak of the turn-over magnitude of…

We present an analysis of the observed light curves and spectra of the Type Ia supernova SN1994D in the galaxy NGC 4526. The sensitivity of theoretical light curves and spectra to the underlying hydrodynamical model is discussed. The…

The methodology involved in deriving the Hubble Constant via the calibration of the corrected peak luminosities of Type Ia supernovae (SNe) is reviewed. We first present a re-analysis of the Calan-Tololo (C-T) and Center for Astrophysics…

Based upon multi-epoch Hubble Space Telescope observations, we present the discovery of sixteen high-quality Cepheid candidates in NGC 4527. Corrected for metallicity effects in the Cepheid period-luminosity relation, we derive a distance,…

We present the tip of the red giant branch (TRGB) distances to Type Ia supernova (SNe Ia) host galaxies NGC 4038/39 and NGC 5584. Based on the deep images constructed using archival Hubble Space Telescope data, we detect red giant branch…

Repeated imaging observations have been made of NGC 4527 with the Hubble Space Telescope between April and June 1999, over an interval of 69 days. Images were obtained on 12 epochs in the F555W band and on five epochs in the F814W band. The…

CCD photometry of the type Ia SN 2001V occured in the edge-on spiral galaxy NGC 3987 is presented. The observations made through Johnson-Cousins BVRI filters were collected from Feb. 24 (t = -8 days, with respect to B-maximum), up to May 5…

A sample of 35 SNe Ia with good to excellent photometry in B and V, minimum internal absorption, and 1200 < v < \approx 30000 km/s is compiled from the literature. As far as their spectra are known they are all Branch-normal. For 29 of the…

This research explores the correlation between the absolute magnitude and the redshift of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) with a model-independent approach. The Pantheon sample of SNe Ia and strong gravitational lensing systems (SGLS) are used.…

We examine the absolute luminosities of 29 SNe Ia in the Calan/Tololo survey. We confirm a relation between the peak luminosity of the SNe and the decline rate as measured by the light curve, as suggested by Phillips (1993). We derive…

We present a comparative study of absolute distances to a sample of very nearby, bright Type Ia supernovae (SNe) derived from high cadence, high signal-to-noise, multi-band photometric data. Our sample consists of four SNe: 2012cg, 2012ht,…

The light curve parameters of the normal type Ia SN2011fe are derived from the rich archive of the AAVSO. This leads, together with the TRGB distance modulus of (m-M) = 29.39 +/- 0.05 of the parent galaxy M101, to maximum magnitudes of the…

UBVRIJ photometry and optical spectra of the Type Ia SN 1996X obtained at ESO during a one-year-long observational campaign are presented, and supplemented by late time HST photometry. Spectroscopically, SN 1996X appears to be a `normal' SN…

We present optical and near-infrared photometry and spectroscopy of the type Ia SN 1998bu in the Leo I Group galaxy M96 (NGC 3368). The data set consists of 356 photometric measurements and 29 spectra of SN 1998bu between UT 1998 May 11 and…

Having two "sibling" Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) in the same galaxy offers additional advantages in reducing a variety of systematic errors involved in estimating the Hubble constant, $H_{0}$. NGC 4414 is a nearby galaxy included in the…

Type Ia supernovae are the best cosmological standard candles available. The intrinsic scatter of their decline-rate- and colour-corrected peak brightnesses in the Hubble diagram is within observational error limits, corresponding to an…
