ZTF-SEDm Type Ia supernova sample for Twins Embedding spectrophotometric standardisation
This episode discusses a paper applying Twins Embedding to standardize Type Ia supernova data from ZTF using SEDm spectra. The hosts detail the methodology, which combines flux calibration with Read Between The Lines and Twins Embedding to correct for spectral uncertainties. While promising, the study noted that residuals did not significantly improve due to high instrumental error in the ZTF sample.
