Measurements from 39 Type Ia supernovas, from Figure 12.1 and Table 12.1. These supernovas were close enough to Earth to observe their actual magnitudes. The goal is to predict magnitude from spectral energy measurements.

Format

A data frame with 39 rows and 11 variables:

Magnitude

Actual observed magnitude of the supernova

E1

Spectral energy in frequency band 1

E2

Spectral energy in frequency band 2

E3

Spectral energy in frequency band 3

E4

Spectral energy in frequency band 4

E5

Spectral energy in frequency band 5

E6

Spectral energy in frequency band 6

E7

Spectral energy in frequency band 7

E8

Spectral energy in frequency band 8

E9

Spectral energy in frequency band 9

E10

Spectral energy in frequency band 10
