Scientific paper

The discovery of accelerated expansion using supernova surveys has been one of the most surprising discoveries in cosmology in the past ten years. Present and future surveys, among which SNLS, JDEM or LSST, are based on samples of a few hundreds to a million supernovae. The measurement of their spectroscopic redshifts to investigate dark energy properties is already by far the limiting aspect of such surveys. In this paper, I will discuss and illustrate with SNLS data an approach based solely on photometry to both select supernova candidates and determine their redshift.
