Perlmutter measures distant supernovae indicating that cosmic expansion is accelerating
Perlmutter publicly presents Supernova Cosmology Project evidence that the expansion of the universe is not being halted by gravity and is instead accelerating.
Perlmutter and collaborators publish the Supernova Cosmology Project analysis of 42 high-redshift supernovae, strengthening evidence for an accelerating universe.
Goldhaber and collaborators refine the light-curve stretch treatment of Type Ia supernovae, improving the standardization used in precision dark-energy measurements.
Knop leads analysis of Supernova Cosmology Project events observed with Hubble, tightening constraints on matter density and the dark-energy component.
