Dr. Jakob Nordin forscht auf den Gebieten der Astrophysik und Kosmologie, mit einem Schwerpunkt auf der Analyse von Supernovae vom Typ Ia zur Untersuchung der Dunklen Energie und der Expansion des Universums. Er nutzt große Datensätze aus Zeitbereich-Surveys wie der Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) und entwickelt statistische Modelle sowie Machine-Learning-Algorithmen zur photometrischen Klassifizierung und Standardisierung astronomischer Transienten. Seine Arbeit umfasst die Optimierung von Forschungsinfrastrukturen, die Implementierung von Open-Science-Praktiken und die Zusammenarbeit in europäischen Projekten wie ACME, um den Zugang zu wissenschaftlichen Daten und Analysewerkzeugen zu verbessern.

The Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) is a new optical time-domain survey that uses the Palomar 48 inch Schmidt telescope. A custom-built wide-field camera provides a 47 deg 2 field of view and 8 s readout time, yielding more than an order of magnitude improvement in survey speed relative to its predecessor survey, the Palomar Transient Factory. We describe the design and implementation of the camera and observing system. The ZTF data system at the Infrared Processing and Analysis Center provides near-real-time reduction to identify moving and varying objects. We outline the analysis pipelines, data products, and associated archive. Finally, we present on-sky performance analysis and first scientific results from commissioning and the early survey. ZTF's public alert stream will serve as a useful precursor for that of the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope.

We report on work to increase the number of well-measured Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) at high redshifts. Light curves, including high signal-to-noise Hubble Space Telescope data, and spectra of six SNe Ia that were discovered during 2001, are presented. Additionally, for the two SNe with z > 1, we present ground-based J-band photometry from Gemini and the Very Large Telescope. These are among the most distant SNe Ia for which ground-based near-IR observations have been obtained. We add these six SNe Ia together with other data sets that have recently become available in the literature to the Union compilation. We have made a number of refinements to the Union analysis chain, the most important ones being the refitting of all light curves with the SALT2 fitter and an improved handling of systematic errors. We call this new compilation, consisting of 557 SNe, the Union2 compilation. The flat concordance CDM model remains an excellent fit to the Union2 data with the best-fit constant equation-of-state parameter w = -0.997 +0.050 -0.054 (stat) +0.077 -0.082 (stat + sys together) for a flat universe, or w = -1.038 +0.056 -0.059 (stat) +0.093 -0.097 (stat + sys together) with curvature. We also present improved constraints on w(z). While no significant change in w with redshift is detected, there is still considerable room for evolution in w. The strength of the constraints depends strongly on redshift. In particular, at z 1, the existence and nature of dark energy are only weakly constrained by the data.
