Scheduling in Targeted Transient Surveys and a New Telescope for CHASE

Figure 5

CHASE survey results. (a) the distribution of supernova with declination in bins of equal solid angle. Red bins correspond to all nearby SNe found in 2008, and green bins correspond to SNe discovered by CHASE in 2008. (b) the distribution of discovery ages of Type Ia SNe in CHASE. About half of the SNe were discovered before maximum. (c) the distribution of discovery ages of Type II SNe in CHASE. The median discovery age was about 5 days after explosion. (G.
