SUMMARY:Greg Aldering\, Bob Cahn\, Alex Kim\, and Saul Perlmutter (LBNL) "Type Ia Supernova Program at LBNL: Status and Plans"
DESCRIPTION:ABSTRACT:\nSupernovae remain a central part of dark energy science\, complementing the programs with BAO and weak lensing.  The LBNL group is active with the nearby supernova search with the SN factory\, a role in the intermediate-redshift DES supernova program\, and the collection of increasing numbers of high-z Type Ia supernovae.  The SuperNova factory has revealed a number of systematic issues and some means to address them.  While LSST will discover hundreds of thousands of supernovae\, only if the systematic issues can be addressed will a Stage-IV experiment be possible.  Combining WFIRST and LSST with what is being learned at the SN factory and at DES can provide the path to Stage-IV.
