Abstract

Using the Hubble Space Telescope, the Supernova Cosmology Project is performing a type Ia supernova search in the highest-redshift, most massive clusters known to date. This program was awarded 174 orbits spanning HST cycles 22-23. It will improve the constraint by a factor of 3 on the Dark Energy equation of state above z ~ 1, allowing an unprecedented probe of Dark Energy time variation. When combined with the improved cluster mass calibration provided by the deep WFC3-IR observations of the clusters, the SNe + clusters observed also will triple the Dark Energy Task Force Figure of Merit. We present the supernova survey strategy and cluster selection criteria, and discuss the first few months of the program.
