Abstract:
In this talk, I will discuss how to use intensity interferometry (II) to measure the size and shape of an extra galactic supernovae (SNe). After a review of intensity interferometry and supernova observables, I will introduce the expanding ejecta method (EEM), a new method to measure angular diameter distances to distant SNe. The method offers opportunities to calibrate the cosmic distance ladder in the near future, and eventually measure the Hubble constant directly.
