A Multi-Wavelength Photometric Census of AGN and Star Formation Activity in the Brightest Cluster Galaxies of X-ray Selected Clusters

T. S. Green, A. C. Edge, J. P. Stott +8

Despite their reputation as being "red and dead", the unique environment inhabited by Brightest Cluster Galaxies (BCGs) can often lead to a self-regulated feedback cycle between ra…

Brightness variation distributions among main belt asteroids from sparse light curve sampling with Pan-STARRS 1

A. McNeill, A. Fitzsimmons, R. Jedicke +7

The rotational state of asteroids is controlled by various physical mechanisms including collisions, internal damping and the Yarkovsky-O'Keefe-Radzievskii-Paddack (YORP) effect. W…

Brown Dwarfs in Young Moving Groups from Pan-STARRS1. I. AB Doradus

Kimberly M. Aller, Michael C. Liu, Eugene A. Magnier +11

Substellar members of young (150 Myr) moving groups are valuable benchmarks to empirically define brown dwarf evolution with age and to study the low-mass end of the init…

Of Genes and Machines: application of a combination of machine learning tools to astronomy datasets

S. Heinis, S. Kumar, S. Gezari +8

We apply a combination of a Genetic Algorithms (GA) and Support Vector Machines (SVM) machine learning algorithm to solve two important problems faced by the astronomical community…

The Optical-Infrared Extinction Curve and its Variation in the Milky Way

E. F. Schlafly, A. M. Meisner, A. M. Stutz +19

The dust extinction curve is a critical component of many observational programs and an important diagnostic of the physics of the interstellar medium. Here we present new measurem…
