Asteroid Discovery and Light Curve Extraction Using the Hough Transform -- A Rotation Period Study for Sub-Kilometer Main-Belt Asteroids
Kai-Jie Lo, Chan-Kao Chang, Hsing-Wen Lin +8
The intra-night trajectories of asteroids can be approximated by straight lines, and so are their intra-night detections. Therefore, the Hough transform, a line detecting algorithm…
SN2018kzr: a rapidly declining transient from the destruction of a white dwarf
Owen R. McBrien, Stephen J. Smartt, Ting-Wan Chen +31
We present SN2018kzr, the fastest declining supernova-like transient, second only to the kilonova, AT2017gfo. SN2018kzr is characterized by a peak magnitude of , peak…
Searching for Super-Fast Rotators Using the Pan-STARRS 1
Chan-Kao Chang, Hsing-Wen Lin, Wing-Huen Ip +9
A class of asteroids, called large super-fast rotators (large SFRs), have rotation periods shorter than 2 hours and diameters larger than ~ 0.3 km. They pose challenges to the usua…
Search for transient optical counterparts to high-energy IceCube neutrinos with Pan-STARRS1
E. Kankare, M. Huber, S. J. Smartt +345
In order to identify the sources of the observed diffuse high-energy neutrino flux, it is crucial to discover their electromagnetic counterparts. IceCube began releasing alerts for…
