Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The 5-year project Supernova Legacy Survey (SNLS) delivers $\sim 100$ Type-Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) per year, in the redshift range $0.3 < z < 1.0$, with well-sampled $g'r'i'z'$ lightcurves. The SNLS Collaboration uses the 1 deg$^2$ Megacam imager (36 $2048 \times 4612$ thinned CCDs) mounted on the 3.6-m Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope (CFHT) to observe four fields around the sky, in four filters. The primary goal of the project is to measure the dark energy equation of state with a final statistical precision of $\pm 0.05$. We have shown, using the first year dataset that the calibration uncertainties are currently the dominant contribution to the systematic error budget. The calibration of the SNLS dataset is challenging in several aspects. First, Megacam is a wide-field imager, and only a handful of its 36 CCDs can be directly calibrated using standard star observations. Second, measuring the rest-frame $B$-band luminosity of SNe Ia over the $0.3

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
