Charge Diffusion Variations in Pan-STARRS\,1 CCDs
Eugene A. Magnier, J. L. Tonry, D. Finkbeiner +10
Thick back-illuminated deep-depletion CCDs have superior quantum efficiency over previous generations of thinned and traditional thick CCDs. As a result, they are being used for wi…
Pan-STARRS Pixel Analysis : Source Detection and Characterization
Eugene A. Magnier, W. E. Sweeney, K. C. Chambers +13
Over 3 billion astronomical objects have been detected in the more than 22 million orthogonal transfer CCD images obtained as part of the Pan-STARRS1 survey. Over 85 billion i…
Pan-STARRS Photometric and Astrometric Calibration
Eugene. A. Magnier, Edward. F. Schlafly, Douglas P. Finkbeiner +18
We present the details of the photometric and astrometric calibration of the Pan-STARRS1 Survey. The photometric goals were to reduce the systematic effects introduced by the…
The Pan-STARRS Data Processing System
Eugene A. Magnier, K. C. Chambers, H. A. Flewelling +14
The Pan-STARRS Data Processing System is responsible for the steps needed to downloaded, archive, and process all images obtained by the Pan-STARRS telescopes, including real-time…
The Pan-STARRS 1 Photometric Reference Ladder, Release 12.0
E. A. Magnier, E. Schlafly, D. Finkbeiner +11
As of 2012 Jan 21, the Pan-STARRS 1 3πSurvey has observed the 3/4 of the sky visible from Hawaii with a minimum of 2 and mean of 7.6 observations in 5 filters, g_p1, r_p1, i_p1, z_…
The Pan-STARRS1 Photometric System
J. L. Tonry, C. W. Stubbs, K. R. Lykke +11
The Pan-STARRS1 survey is collecting multi-epoch, multi-color observations of the sky north of declination -30 deg to unprecedented depths. These data are being photometrically and…
Photometric Calibration of the First 1.5 Years of the Pan-STARRS1 Survey
E. F. Schlafly, D. P. Finkbeiner, M. Juric +14
We present a precise photometric calibration of the first 1.5 years of science imaging from the Pan-STARRS1 survey (PS1), an ongoing optical survey of the entire sky north of decli…
Stellar metallicities beyond the Local Group: the potential of J-band spectroscopy with extremely large telescopes
C. J. Evans, B. Davies, R. -P. Kudritzki +7
We present simulated J-band spectroscopy of red giants and supergiants with a 42m European Extremely Large Telescope (E-ELT), using tools developed toward the EAGLE Phase A instrum…
