We analyze 99 Type Ia supernovae (SNeIa) observed in $H$ band (1.6--1.8 $mu$m) and find that SNeIa are intrinsically brighter in $H$-band with increasing host galaxy stellar mass. We find that SNeIa in galaxies more massive than $10^{10.44} M_{odot}$ are brighter in $H$ than SNeIa in less massive galaxies by $0.18 pm 0.05$ mag. The same set of SNeIa observed at optical wavelengths, after width-color-luminosity corrections, exhibit a $0.17 pm 0.05$ mag offset in the Hubble residuals. Removing two significant outliers reduces the step in $H$ band to $0.10 pm 0.04$ mag but has no effect on the optical mass step size. An analysis based on information criteria supports a step function with a break at $10^{10.44}~M_{odot}$ over a constant model with and without outliers for NIR and optical residuals. Less massive galaxies preferentially host more higher-stretch SNeIa, which are intrinsically brighter and bluer. It is only after correction for width-luminosity and color-luminosity relationships that SNeIa have brighter optical Hubble residuals in more massive galaxies. Thus the finding that SNeIa are intrinsically brighter in $H$ in more massive galaxies is a significant and opposite correlation as the intrinsic optical brightness. If dust and the treatment of intrinsic color variation were the main driver of the host galaxy mass correlation, we would not expect a correlation of brighter $H$-band SNeIa in more massive galaxies. The correlation we find thus suggests that dust is not the main explanation of the observed correlation between Hubble residual and host galaxy stellar mass.

Using a sample of nine massive compact galaxies at z ~ 2.3 with rest-frame optical spectroscopy and comprehensive U through 8um photometry we investigate how assumptions in SED modeling change the stellar mass estimates of these galaxies, and how thi
s affects our interpretation of their size evolution. The SEDs are fit to Tau-models with a range of metallicities, dust laws, as well as different stellar population synthesis codes. These models indicate masses equal to, or slightly smaller than our default masses. The maximum difference is 0.16 dex for each parameter considered, and only 0.18 dex for the most extreme combination of parameters. Two-component populations with a maximally old stellar population superposed with a young component provide reasonable fits to these SEDs using the models of Bruzual & Charlot (2003); however, using models with updated treatment of TP-AGB stars the fits are poorer. The two-component models predict masses that are 0.08 to 0.22 dex larger than the Tau-models. We also test the effect of a bottom-light IMF and find that it would reduce the masses of these galaxies by 0.3 dex. Considering the range of allowable masses from the Tau-models, two-component fits, and IMF, we conclude that on average these galaxies lie below the mass-size relation of galaxies in the local universe by a factor of 3-9, depending on the SED models used.
An analysis of SNIa events in early type galaxies from the Cappellaro et al (1999) database provides conclusive evidence that the rate of type Ia Supernovae (SNe) in radio-loud galaxies is about 4 times higher than the rate measured in radio-quiet ga
laxies, i.e. SNIa-rate$(radio-loud galaxies) = 0.43^{+0.19}_{-0.14}h^2_{75}$ SNu as compared to SNIa-rate$(radio-quiet galaxies) = 0.11^{+0.06}_{-0.03}h^2_{75}$ SNu. The actual value of the enhancement is likely to be in the range $sim 2-7$ (P$sim 10^{-4}$). This finding puts on robust empirical grounds the results obtained by Della Valle & Panagia (2003) on the basis of a smaller sample of SNe. We analyse the possible causes of this result and conclude that the enhancement of SNIa explosion rate in radio-loud galaxies has the same origin as their being strong radio sources, but there is no causality link between the two phenomena. We argue that repeated episodes of interaction and/or mergers of early type galaxies with dwarf companions, on times-scale of about 1 Gyr, are responsible for inducing both strong radio activity observed in $sim$14% of early type galaxies and to supply an adequate number of SNIa progenitors to the stellar population of ellipticals.
We use a sample of 809 photometrically classified type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) discovered by the Dark Energy Survey (DES) along with 40415 field galaxies to calculate the rate of SNe Ia per galaxy in the redshift range $0.2 < z <0.6$. We recover the k
nown correlation between SN Ia rate and galaxy stellar mass across a broad range of scales $8.5 leq log(M_*/mathrm{M}_{odot}) leq 11.25$. We find that the SN Ia rate increases with stellar mass as a power-law with index $0.63 pm 0.02$, which is consistent with previous work. We use an empirical model of stellar mass assembly to estimate the average star-formation histories (SFHs) of galaxies across the stellar mass range of our measurement. Combining the modelled SFHs with the SN Ia rates to estimate constraints on the SN Ia delay time distribution (DTD), we find the data are fit well by a power-law DTD with slope index $beta = -1.13 pm 0.05$ and normalisation $A = 2.11 pm0.05 times 10^{-13}~mathrm{SNe}~{mathrm{M}_{odot}}^{-1}~mathrm{yr}^{-1}$, which corresponds to an overall SN Ia production efficiency $N_{mathrm{Ia}}/M_* = 0.9~_{-0.7}^{+4.0} times 10^{-3}~mathrm{SNe}~mathrm{M}_{odot}^{-1}$. Upon splitting the SN sample by properties of the light curves, we find a strong dependence on DTD slope with the SN decline rate, with slower-declining SNe exhibiting a steeper DTD slope. We interpret this as a result of a relationship between intrinsic luminosity and progenitor age, and explore the implications of the result in the context of SN Ia progenitors.
Ultraviolet (UV) observations of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) probe the outermost layers of the explosion, and UV spectra of SNe Ia are expected to be extremely sensitive to differences in progenitor composition and the details of the explosion. Here
we present the first study of a sample of high signal-to-noise ratio SN Ia spectra that extend blueward of 2900 A. We focus on spectra taken within 5 days of maximum brightness. Our sample of ten SNe Ia spans the majority of the parameter space of SN Ia optical diversity. We find that SNe Ia have significantly more diversity in the UV than in the optical, with the spectral variance continuing to increase with decreasing wavelengths until at least 1800 A (the limit of our data). The majority of the UV variance correlates with optical light-curve shape, while there are no obvious and unique correlations between spectral shape and either ejecta velocity or host-galaxy morphology. Using light-curve shape as the primary variable, we create a UV spectral model for SNe Ia at peak brightness. With the model, we can examine how individual SNe vary relative to expectations based on only their light-curve shape. Doing this, we confirm an excess of flux for SN 2011fe at short wavelengths, consistent with its progenitor having a subsolar metallicity. While most other SNe Ia do not show large deviations from the model, ASASSN-14lp has a deficit of flux at short wavelengths, suggesting that its progenitor was relatively metal rich.
The existing set of type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) is now sufficient to detect oscillatory deviations from the canonical $Lambda$CDM cosmology. We determine that the Fourier spectrum of the Pantheon data set of spectroscopically well-observed SNe Ia is
consistent with the predictions of $Lambda$CDM. We also develop and describe two complementary techniques for using SNe Ia to constrain those alternate cosmological models that predict deviations from $Lambda$CDM that are oscillatory in conformal time. The first technique uses the reduced $chi^2$ statistic to determine the likelihood that the observed data would result from a given model. The second technique uses bootstrap analysis to determine the likelihood that the Fourier spectrum of a proposed model could result from statistical fluctuations around $Lambda$CDM. We constrain three oscillatory alternate cosmological models: one in which the dark energy equation of state parameter oscillates around the canonical value of $w_{Lambda} = -1$, one in which the energy density of dark energy oscillates around its $Lambda$CDM value, and one in which gravity derives from a scalar field evolving under an oscillatory coupling. We further determine that any alternate cosmological model that produces distance modulus residuals with a Fourier amplitude of $simeq 36$ millimags is strongly ruled out, given the existing data, for frequencies between $simeq 0.08 textrm{Gyr}^ {-1} h_{100}$ and $simeq 80 textrm{Gyr}^ {-1} h_{100}$.
