Measurement of Omega(m), Omega(Lambda) from a blind analysis of type Ia supernovae with CMAGIC: Using color information to verify the acceleration of the universe

We present measurements of Ωm and Ω Λ from a blind analysis of 21 high-redshift supemovae using a new technique (CMAGIC) for fitting the multicolor light curves of Type la supernovae, first introduced by Wang and coworkers. CMAGIC takes advantage of the remarkably simple behavior of Type la supernov...
