Light Curves of Type Ia Supernovae and Preliminary Cosmological Constraints from the ESSENCE Survey

The ESSENCE survey discovered 213 type Ia supernovae at redshifts 0.10 < z < 0.81 between 2002 and 2008. We present their R and I band light curve measurements, obtained using the MOSAIC II imager at the CTIO 4 m, along with rapid response spectroscopy for each object from a range of large ape...
