11. Search for lensed supernovae behind the galaxy cluster Abell 1689
Sammanfattning : Distant supernovae probe the history of cosmic expansion and star formation, and provide important information on their progenitor models. Investigation of supernovae type Ia for are needed to reveal any evolution in their intrinsic properties, and thus their utility as existing distance indicators. LÄS MER
12. Supernovae seen through gravitational telescopes
Sammanfattning : Galaxies, and clusters of galaxies, can act as gravitational lenses and magnify the light of objects behind them. The effect enables observations of very distant supernovae, that otherwise would be too faint to be detected by existing telescopes, and allows studies of the frequency and properties of these rare phenomena when the universe was young.

13. Investigating the Dark Universe through Gravitational Lensing
Sammanfattning : A variety of precision observations suggest that the present universe is dominated by some unknown components, the so-called dark matter and dark energy. The distribution and properties of these components are the focus of modern cosmology and we are only beginning to understand them. LÄS MER
14. Kilonova signatures and observations with Zwicky Transient Facility
Sammanfattning : On 17 August 2017, the advanced LIGO and Virgo collaboration detected the first gravitational wave event produced by the merger of a pair of inspiraling binary neutron stars (BNS). This event, named GW170817, was associated with a short gamma-ray burst and the kilonova (KN) AT2017gfo that was followed-up over the following days and weeks over the electromagnetic spectrum from ultraviolet to near infrared frequencies.

15. Physics-informed inferences of galaxy clustering with Bayesian forward modelling
Sammanfattning : In this thesis, we showcase four novel approaches to constraining the relationship between cosmological observables and the large-scale structure. The majority of the energy content of the Universe in the concordance cosmological model remains largely unknown. LÄS MER
