Estimating the rate and luminosity function of all classes of GRBs
The aim of the present work is to estimate the rate and luminosity functions of short, intermediate and long gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) by fitting their intensity distributions with parameterized explosion rates ...

Cosmology with Supernovae: The Road from Galactic Supernovae to the edge of the Universe
This review gives an update of the cosmological use of SNe Ia and the progress made in testing their properties from the local universe to high-z. The cosmological road from high-z supernovae down to Galactic ...

Erratum: Discovery of a supernova explosion at half the age of the Universe
Nature 391, 51– 54 (1998) The name of one of the authors (Ariel Goobar) of this Letter was inadvertently removed during page make-up. A. Goobar is in the Physics Department, Stockholm University, as indicated ...

Discovery of a supernova explosion at half the age of the Universe
The ultimate fate of the Universe, infinite expansion or a big crunch, can be determined by using the redshifts and distances of very distant supernovae to monitor changes in the expansion rate. We can now find1 ...

SNe Ia: On the Binary Progenitors and Expected Statistics
Type la supernovae (SNe Ia) are explosions of C+O WDs triggered by the accretion of material from a companion. After many years of SN research, we are fairly certain of the nature of the exploding object, but ...

The type-II plateau supernova 1988A in M58: What mechanism powers its late-time luminosity?
The detection of high late-time luminosity in the type-II plateau supernova 1988A about 500 days after maximum indicates that some mechanism is still providing large amounts of energy to the supernova at this ...

Type Ia supernovae observed at La Palma Observatory: Looking for differences within a recent sample
A sample of recent type Ia supernovae has been observed from La Palma. Spectra of there supernovae were taken at two different phases: around maximum and between one and two months after maximum. We present he...

Line transfer in supernovae envelopes by Sobolev's treatment
We combine an accurate treatment of continuum transfer in supernovae envelopes with a line transfer treatment using Sobolev's approximation to analyze the influence of some physical parameters (the continuum o...

Analysis of the spectral features of a recent supernova 1987n
We present an attempt to analyse the spectra of SN 1987n in NGC 7606, covering a period of 10 days from the time of maximum brightness. The velocities in the rest frame of NGC 7606 and the depths of the spectr...
