27 Aug 2020 | Abstract: | Analyses of type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) have found puzzling correlations
between their standardised luminosities and host galaxy properties: SNe Ia in
high-mass, passive hosts appear brighter than those in lower-mass, star-forming
hosts. We examine the host galaxies of SNe Ia in the Dark Energy Survey
three-year spectroscopically-confirmed cosmological sample, obtaining
photometry in a series of ’local’ apertures centred on the SN, and for the
global host galaxy. We study the differences in these host galaxy properties,
such as stellar mass and rest-frame $U-R$ colours, and their correlations with
SN Ia parameters including Hubble residuals. We find all Hubble residual steps
to be $>3sigma$ in significance, both for splitting at the traditional sample
median and for the step of maximum significance. For stellar mass, we find a
maximal local step of $0.098pm0.018$ mag; $sim 0.03$ mag greater than the
largest global stellar mass step in our sample ($0.070 pm 0.017$ mag). When
splitting at the sample median, differences between local and global $U-R$
steps are small, both $sim 0.08$ mag, but are more significant than the global
stellar mass step ($0.057pm0.017$ mag). We split the data into sub-samples
based on SN Ia light curve parameters: stretch ($x_1$) and colour ($c$),
finding that redder objects ($c > 0$) have larger Hubble residual steps, for
both stellar mass and $U-R$, for both local and global measurements, of
$sim0.14$ mag. Additionally, the bluer (star-forming) local environments host
a more homogeneous SN Ia sample, with local $U-R$ r.m.s. scatter as low as
$0.084 pm 0.017$ mag for blue ($c < 0$) SNe Ia in locally blue $U-R$
environments. | Source: | arXiv, 2008.12101 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
