Preprints of the UT Supernova group

This archive contains the unpublished work of the members of the UT Supernova Research Group. For older, published papers consult our publications page. The list is divided into 2 sections: Preprints, which have been accepted for publication, and Papers In Preparation, each in reverse chronological order.

The Peridier Library of the McDonald Observatory maintains an Abstract Archive for preprints by all astronomers at the University of Texas.
