Scientific paper

The accelerating universe appears to be dominated by a dark energy with a significant negative pressure. The ratio of the pressure to density of this mysterious energy {its equation of state} is an observable which can differentiate between the proliferating candidate theories. We propose to estimate the dark energy equation of state by observing Type Ia supernovae at redshifts near z=0.7 with HST in concert with the on-going ESSENCE NOAO Survey program that is discovering and studying supernovae between 0.3
