Complex Lyman Alpha Profiles in Redshift 6.6 Ultraluminous Lyman Alpha Emitters
Antoinette Songaila, Esther M. Hu, Amy J. Barger +4
We report on a search for ultraluminous Lyman alpha emitting galaxies (LAEs) at z=6.6 using the NB921 filter on Hyper Suprime-Cam on the Subaru telescope. We searched a 30 degree s…
The Main-Belt Comets: The Pan-STARRS1 Perspective
Henry H. Hsieh, Larry Denneau, Richard J. Wainscoat +17
We analyze 760475 observations of 333026 main-belt objects obtained by the Pan-STARRS1 (PS1) survey telescope between 2012 May 20 and 2013 November 9, a period during which PS1 dis…
The splitting of double-component active asteroid P/2016 J1 (PANSTARRS)
Fernando Moreno, Francisco Pozuelos, Bojan Novakovic +20
We present deep imaging observations, orbital dynamics, and dust tail model analyses of the double-component asteroid P/2016 J1 (J1-A and J1-B). The observations were acquired at t…
Galactic Globular and Open Cluster Fiducial Sequences in the Pan-STARRS1 Photometric System
Edouard J. Bernard, Annette M. N. Ferguson, Edward F. Schlafly +16
We present the fiducial sequences of a sample of Galactic star clusters in the five bands of the Pan-STARRS1 (PS1) photometric system (g_P1, r_P1, i_P1, z_P1, y_P1). These empirica…
A New Faint Milky Way Satellite Discovered in the Pan-STARRS1 3 pi Survey
Benjamin P. M. Laevens, Nicolas F. Martin, Rodrigo A. Ibata +21
We present the discovery of a faint Milky Way satellite, Laevens 2/Triangulum II, found in the Panoramic Survey Telescope And Rapid Response System (Pan-STARRS 1) 3 pi imaging data…
Measuring Distances and Reddenings for a Billion Stars: Towards A 3D Dust Map from Pan-STARRS 1
Gregory Maurice Green, Edward F. Schlafly, Douglas P. Finkbeiner +13
We present a method to infer reddenings and distances to stars, based only on their broad-band photometry, and show how this method can be used to produce a three-dimensional dust…
