Supernovae, Dust, Host Galaxies, Observational Selection

Scientific paper

We develop models for extinction of Type Ia supernova light due to dust in spiral host galaxies. The models are based on well-known facts and concepts concerning galaxy morphology, star distributions, and dust. We find that observational selection causes extinctions of observable Ia supernovae to be very insensitive to large variations in host galaxy dust, especially at high redshift.
