Scientific paper

Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) currently provide the most direct evidence for an accelerating Universe and for the existence of an unknown dark energy driving the expansion. The Supernova Legacy Survey (SNLS) is a five-year project which has delivered around 500 high-redshift SNe Ia light curves and spectra in the redshift range 0.2 < z < 1.0 in order to constrain the dark energy equation-of-state, w. The cosmological results obtained with the data of the first 3 years of the survey are presented.
