  Since type Ia Supernovae (SNe) explode in galaxies, they can, in principle,
be used as the same tracer of the large-scale structure as their hosts to
measure baryon acoustic oscillations (BAOs). To realize this, one must obtain a
dense integrated sampling of SNe over a large fraction of the sky, which may
only be achievable photometrically with future projects such as the Large
Synoptic Survey Telescope. The advantage of SN BAOs is that SNe have more
uniform luminosities and more accurate photometric redshifts than galaxies, but
the disadvantage is that they are transitory and hard to obtain in large number
at high redshift. We find that a half-sky photometric SN survey to redshift z =
0.8 is able to measure the baryon signature in the SN spatial power spectrum.
Although dark energy constraints from SN BAOs are weak, they can significantly
improve the results from SN luminosity distances of the same data, and the
combination of the two is no longer sensitive to cosmic microwave background
priors.
