My favorite moments being a research advisor are when we are all eating together, and people start laughing/teasing about some super obscure science point. It's a joy. Duke Physics

1/3 Interviewed Yun Wang, Maria Vincenzi, & Tamara Davis for an exciting dark energy story! scientificamerican.com/article/unprec…

We've released our final analysis of the expansion of the Universe using Type Ia Supernovae!! Read about the hard work of our many supernovae scientists over the past several years.

We're not done yet! More results to come using other probes in 2024.

Today we have released the major result for measurements of Dark Energy and Dark Matter using Type Ia Supernovae in the Dark Energy Survey (Dark Energy Survey)!

We've been working towards this robust result for more than a decade

More on the great result, and some nive quotes by Tamara Davis and Duke Physics Maria Vincenzi !

“The DES Collaboration contributed to the growth and professional development of an entire generation of cosmologists,” research fellow Maria Vincenzi speaks to Symmetry Magazine on the supernova results of the Dark Energy Survey.

Congratulations to the whole @TheDESurvey team, in particular Maria Vincenzi and Ryan Camilleri who were heroes helping me in the final push to get this paper out, and @danscolnic & Dillon Brout for co-leading the working group and cosmological analysis. arxiv.org/abs/2401.02929

Can we infer redshift from supernova photometry alone?

Introducing Photo-zSNthesis🌱, a deep learning-based approach for type Ia supernova redshift inference.

We show >5x improvement on real data over existing SN photo-z approaches!
