e/Phillips relation

New Query

Information
has glosseng: In astrophysics, the Phillips relationship is the relationship between the peak luminosity of a Type Ia supernova and the speed of luminosity evolution after maximum light. During the course of the Calán/Tololo Supernova Survey, Mark M. Phillips discovered that the faster the supernova faded from maximum light, the fainter its peak magnitude was. It has been recast to include the evolution in multiple photometric bandpasses and as a stretch in the time axis relative to a standard template . The relation is typically used to bring any Type Ia supernova peak magnitude to a standard candle value.
