Scientific paper

The Carnegie Supernova Project (CSP) is aimed at providing an independent estimate of the dark energy contribution to the total energy content of the universe. Using Type Ia supernovae (SNIa), the CSP differs from other projects undertaken to date in its goal of providing an I-band restframe Hubble diagram. The CSP is focused on testing for and reducing systematic uncertainties, by obtaining multi-wavelength observations of approximately 200 supernovae falling in the redshift range 0 < z < 0.7. The high-redshift campaign is focused on obtaining NIR photometry for SNIa in the redshift range 0.2 < z < 0.7 using Persson's Auxilliary Nasmyth Infrared Camera (PANIC) on the Magellan telescopes. In this poster, we present the first results from our 2004-2005 campaign.
