Carnegie Supernova Project-II: Extending the Near-Infrared Hubble Diagram for Type Ia Supernovae to
M. M. Phillips, Carlos Contreras, E. Y. Hsiao +41
The Carnegie Supernova Project-II (CSP-II) was an NSF-funded, four-year program to obtain optical and near-infrared observations of a "Cosmology" sample of Type Ia supern…
Carnegie Supernova Project-II: The Near-infrared Spectroscopy Program
E. Y. Hsiao, M. M. Phillips, G. H. Marion +42
Shifting the focus of Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) cosmology to the near-infrared (NIR) is a promising way to significantly reduce the systematic errors, as the strategy minimizes our…
Discovery of the most ultra-luminous QSO using Gaia, SkyMapper and WISE
Christian Wolf, Fuyan Bian, Christopher A. Onken +5
We report the discovery of the ultra-luminous QSO SMSS~J215728.21-360215.1 with magnitude and W4 at redshift 4.75. Given absolute magnitudes of $M_{145,\rm AB}=-29.…
Discovery of two bright quasars with SkyMapper, Pan-STARRS1 and WISE
Zefeng Li, Christian Wolf, Fuyan Bian +5
We present a search for bright quasars using imaging data from SkyMapper Southern Survey, Pan-STARRS1 and the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE). We select two set…
SN 2012fr: Ultraviolet, Optical, and Near-Infrared Light Curves of a Type Ia Supernova Observed Within a Day of Explosion
Carlos Contreras, M. M. Phillips, Christopher R. Burns +32
We present detailed ultraviolet, optical and near-infrared light curves of the Type Ia supernova (SN) 2012fr, which exploded in the Fornax cluster member NGC 1365. These precise hi…
SkyMapper Southern Survey: First Data Release (DR1)
Christian Wolf, Christopher A. Onken, Lance C. Luvaul +14
We present the first data release (DR1) of the SkyMapper Southern Survey, a hemispheric survey carried out with the SkyMapper Telescope at Siding Spring Observatory in Australia. H…
