The Palomar Transient Factory Core-Collapse Supernova Host-Galaxy Sample. I. Host-Galaxy Distribution Functions and Environment-Dependence of CCSNe
Steve Schulze, Ofer Yaron, Jesper Sollerman +51
Several thousand core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) of different flavors have been discovered so far. However, identifying their progenitors has remained an outstanding open question…
IGAPS: the merged IPHAS and UVEX optical surveys of theNorthern Galactic Plane
M. Monguió, R. Greimel, J. E. Drew +47
The INT Galactic Plane Survey (IGAPS) is the merger of the optical photometric surveys, IPHAS and UVEX, based on data from the Isaac Newton Telescope (INT) obtained between 2003 an…
The Palomar Transient Factory Sky2Night programme
J. van Roestel, P. J. Groot, T. Kupfer +9
We present results of the Sky2Night project: a systematic, unbiased search for fast optical transients with the Palomar Transient Factory. We have observed 407 deg in -band…
UV-excess sources with a red/IR-counterpart: low-mass companions, debris disks and QSO selection
Kars Verbeek, Paul J. Groot, Simone Scaringi +13
We present the result of the cross-matching between UV-excess sources selected from the UV-excess survey of the Northern Galactic Plane (UVEX) and several infrared surveys (2MASS,…
Finding compact hot subdwarf binaries in the Galactic disc
T. Kupfer, S. Geier, A. Faye McLeod +15
We started a new project which aims to find compact hot subdwarf binaries at low Galactic latitudes. Targets are selected from several photometric surveys and a spectroscopic follo…
A determination of the space density and birth rate of hydrogen-line (DA) white dwarfs in the Galactic Plane, based on the UVEX survey
Kars Verbeek, Paul J. Groot, Gijs Nelemans +14
We present a determination of the average space density and birth rate of hydrogen-line (DA) white dwarfs within a radius of 1 kpc around the Sun, based on an observational sample…
Spectroscopic identifications of blue H-alpha excess sources in the Kepler field-of-view
S. Scaringi, P. J. Groot, K. Verbeek +3
We present the first results of an ongoing spectroscopic follow-up program of blue H-alpha excess sources within the Kepler field-of-view, in order to identify new cataclysmic vari…
Spectroscopic follow-up of UV-excess objects selected from the UVEX survey
Kars Verbeek, Paul J. Groot, Simone Scaringi +17
We present the results of the first spectroscopic follow-up of 132 optically blue UV-excess sources selected from the UV-excess survey of the Northern Galactic Plane (UVEX). The UV…
Initial data release of the Kepler-INT Survey
S. Greiss, D. Steeghs, B. T. Gänsicke +19
This paper describes the first data release of the Kepler-INT Survey (KIS), that covers a 116 deg2 region of the Cygnus and Lyra constellations. The Kepler field is the target of t…
A first catalogue of automatically selected UV-excess sources from the UVEX survey
Kars Verbeek, Eelco de Groot, Paul J. Groot +10
We present the first catalogue of point-source UV-excess sources selected from the UVEX survey. UVEX images the Northern Galactic Plane in the U, g, r and HeI5875 bands in the Gala…
The UV-Excess Survey of the Northern Galactic Plane (UVEX)
Paul J. Groot, K. Verbeek, R. Greimel +41
The UV-Excess Survey of the Northern Galactic Plane images a 10x185 degree wide band, centered on the Galactic Equator using the 2.5m Isaac Newton Telescope in four bands (U,g,r,He…
