Symplectic Integrators: T + V Revisited and Round-Off Reduced
John E Chambers
Symplectic integrators separate a problem into parts that can be solved in isolation, alternately advancing these sub-problems to approximate the evolution of the complete system.…
The Fifteenth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Surveys: First Release of MaNGA Derived Quantities, Data Visualization Tools and Stellar Library
D. S. Aguado, Romina Ahumada, Andres Almeida +230
Twenty years have passed since first light for the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). Here, we release data taken by the fourth phase of SDSS (SDSS-IV) across its first three years o…
A strategy for LSST to unveil a population of kilonovae without gravitational-wave triggers
Igor Andreoni, Shreya Anand, Federica B. Bianco +10
We present a cadence optimization strategy to unveil a large population of kilonovae using optical imaging alone. These transients are generated during binary neutron star and pote…
Presto-Color: A Photometric Survey Cadence for Explosive Physics & Fast Transients
Federica B. Bianco, Maria R. Drout, Melissa L. Graham +6
We identify minimal observing cadence requirements that enable photometric astronomical surveys to detect and recognize fast and explosive transients and fast transient features. O…
SDSS-IV MaStar -- A Large and Comprehensive Empirical Stellar Spectral Library: First Release
Renbin Yan, Yanping Chen, Daniel Lazarz +45
We present the first release of the MaNGA Stellar Library (MaStar), which is a large, well-calibrated, high-quality empirical library covering the wavelength range of 3,622-10,354A…
Direct Imaging in Reflected Light: Characterization of Older, Temperate Exoplanets With 30-m Telescopes
Etienne Artigau, Rebecca A. Bernstein, Timothy Brandt +22
Direct detection, also known as direct imaging, is a method for discovering and characterizing the atmospheres of planets at intermediate and wide separations. It is the only means…
Portable Adaptive Optics for Exoplanet Imaging
Yongtian Zhu, Jiangpei Dou, Xi Zhang +3
The Portable Adaptive Optics (PAO) is a low-cost and compact system, designed for 4-meter class telescopes that have no Adaptive Optics (AO), because of the physical space limitati…
Background-Limited Imaging in the Near-Infrared with Warm InGaAs Sensors: Applications for Time-Domain Astronomy
Robert A. Simcoe, Gabor Furesz, Peter W. Sullivan +6
We describe test observations made with a customized 640 x 512 pixel Indium Gallium Arsenide (InGaAs) prototype astronomical camera on the 100" DuPont telescope. This is the first…
Holistic spectroscopy: Complete reconstruction of a wide-field, multi-object spectroscopic image using a photonic comb
Janez Kos, Joss Bland-Hawthorn, Christopher H. Betters +18
The primary goal of Galactic archaeology is to learn about the origin of the Milky Way from the detailed chemistry and kinematics of millions of stars. Wide-field multi-fibre spect…
On the limitations of statistical absorption studies with the Sloan Digital Sky Surveys I--III
Ting-Wen Lan, Brice Ménard, Dalya Baron +4
We investigate the limitations of statistical absorption measurements with the SDSS optical spectroscopic surveys. We show that changes in the data reduction strategy throughout di…
The Dark Energy Survey Data Release 1
T. M. C. Abbott, F. B. Abdalla, S. Allam +199
We describe the first public data release of the Dark Energy Survey, DES DR1, consisting of reduced single epoch images, coadded images, coadded source catalogs, and associated pro…
