Rainbow: a colorful approach on multi-passband light curve estimation

E. Russeil, K. L. Malanchev, P. D. Aleo +10

We present Rainbow, a physically motivated framework which enables simultaneous multi-band light curve fitting. It allows the user to construct a 2-dimensional continuous surface a…

Uniform Recalibration of Common Spectrophotometry Standard Stars onto the CALSPEC System using the SuperNova Integral Field Spectrograph

David Rubin, G. Aldering, P. Antilogus +35

We calibrate spectrophotometric optical spectra of 32 stars commonly used as standard stars, referenced to 14 stars already on the HST-based CALSPEC flux system. Observations of CA…

Optimizing spectroscopic follow-up strategies for supernova photometric classification with active learning

E. E. O. Ishida, R. Beck, S. Gonzalez-Gaitan +10

We report a framework for spectroscopic follow-up design for optimizing supernova photometric classification. The strategy accounts for the unavoidable mismatch between spectroscop…

A Binary Offset Effect in CCD Readout and Its Impact on Astronomical Data

K. Boone, G. Aldering, Y. Copin +5

We have discovered an anomalous behavior of CCD readout electronics that affects their use in many astronomical applications. An offset in the digitization of the CCD output voltag…
