9315067 Herbst The PI will continue to use the 0.6 m Perkin reflecting telescope and CCD camera at Van Vleck Observatory to monitor supernova eruptions. The goal is to obtain high quality, well sampled light curves of all the supernovae which are sufficiently far north and sufficiently bright for this instrument. These data will be useful in determining the degree to which type Ia supernovae can be regarded as photometrically homogeneous, determining the photometric parameters of types Ia and II supernovae and establishing the properties and frequency of occurrence of various types of supernovae light curves. Undergraduate students will be heavily involved in this project. ***

PI将继续使用Van Vleck天文台的0.6米Perkin反射望远镜和CCD相机来监测超新星爆发。目标是获得高质量的、采样良好的所有超新星的光曲线，这些超新星位于足够远的北方，对这个仪器来说足够亮。这些数据将有助于确定Ia型超新星在光度上的均匀程度，确定Ia型和II型超新星的光度参数，建立各种类型超新星光曲线的性质和发生频率。本科生将大量参与这个项目。＊＊＊
