The Stockholm Supernova Cosmology Group

We are probing the energy content of the Universe by observing distant type Ia supernova explosions. These objects seem to have the same intrinsic brightness and can therefore be used to measure cosmological distances, which are directly related to how much energy there is in the Universe and how it is divided between different components such as matter and dark energy. A popular description of our work in Swedish.

The Stockholm group is part of the Supernova Cosmology Project (SCP), the SNAP collaboration, and the European Supernova Consortium.
