Abstract

The SNe Ia studied in this paper were discovered by the PTF, a project which operated from 2009 to 2012 and used the CFH12k wide-field survey camera mounted on the Samuel Oschin 48 inch telescope (P48) at the Palomar Observatory. The observational cadences used to discover the SNe ranged from hours up to ~5d. SN candidates were identified in image subtraction data and ranked using both simple cuts on the detection parameters and a machine learning algorithm (Bloom et al. 2012PASP..124.1175B), and then visually confirmed by members of the PTF collaboration or, from mid-2010 onwards, via the citizen science project 'Galaxy Zoo: Supernova' (Smith et al., 2011MNRAS.412.1309S). The latter identified eight of the SNe studied in this paper.
