Abstract We present cosmological constraints from the sample of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) discovered and measured during full 5 yr Dark Energy Survey (DES) SN program. In contrast to most previous samples, in which SNe are classified based on their spectra, we classify DES using a machine learning algorithm applied light curves four photometric bands. Spectroscopic redshifts acquired dedicated follow-up survey host galaxies. After accounting for likelihood each being an Ia, find 1635...

A global QCD analysis of the direct photon production process from both fixed target and collider experiments is presented. These data sets now completely cover parton $x$ range 0.01 to 0.6, thereby providing a stringent test perturbative distributions. Previous detailed studies photons emphasized data. We find most have steeper $p_t$ distribution than prediction. Neither fits with new distributions nor improved fragmentation functions can resolve this problem since deviation occurs at...
Lattice QCD with four flavors of light dynamical quarks is simulated on a ${10}^{3}$\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}6 lattice in order to study the finite-temperature transition chiral limit. The mass used, m=0.025 (in units), half smallest value previously used this size lattice. We find evidence for phase which absent intermediate masses. time evolution system shows both long correlation times characteristic nearby critical point and abrupt changes.
The ideas of supersymmetric quantum mechanics are applied to the tunneling problem for double-well potentials. We evaluate by developing a systematic perturbation expansion whose leading term is an improvement over standard WKB result. find that series converges rapidly.
The analysis of current and future cosmological surveys type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) at high-redshift depends on the accurate photometric classification SN events detected. Generating realistic simulations constitutes an essential step for training testing algorithms, correcting biases introduced by selection effects contamination arising from core collapse SNe in samples. We use published time-series spectrophotometric templates, rates, luminosity functions empirical relationships between...
Cosmological analyses of samples photometrically-identified Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) depend on understanding the effects 'contamination' from core-collapse and peculiar SN events.

Host galaxy identification is a crucial step for modern supernova (SN) surveys such as the Dark Energy Survey (DES) and Large Synoptic Telescope (LSST), which will discover SNe by thousands. Spectroscopic resources are limited, so in absence of real-time SN spectra these must rely on host to obtain accurate redshifts Hubble diagram improve photometric classification SNe. In addition, luminosities known correlate with host-galaxy properties. Therefore, reliable galaxies essential cosmology...

The CDF experiment has reported an excess of high- ${p}_{t}$ jets compared to previous next-to-leading order QCD expectations. Before attributing this new physics effects, we investigate whether these can be explained by a modified gluon distribution inside the proton. We find enough flexibility in global analysis including inclusive jet data provide (25 -- 35)% increase cross sections at highest experiment. Two possible sets parton distributions are presented, and effects on other existing...
