We can use these corrected fluences to work out the distances to other supernovae, calibrating our distance scale against SN01 in M51. -8 Assume that SN01 has a corrected fluence of 5.512 10Jm2, a redshift of z~0, and lies at a distance of 450 Mpc. The highest redshift supernova in the sample is SN55 at a redshift of 6.69. It has a corrected fluence of 1.027 x 10-16 Jm-2. How many (Earth) years has the light from SN55 been travelling to reach Zing? Remember to use the version of the inverse square law including the 1/(1+z) term.
