Clustering of supernova ia host galaxies

For the first time the cross-correlation between Type Ia supernova host galaxies and surrounding field galaxies is measured using the Supernova Legacy Survey sample. Over the z p 0.2-0.9 redshift range we find that supernova hosts are correlated an average of 60% more strongly than similarly selecte...
