The Difference Imaging Pipeline for the Transient Search in the Dark Energy Survey

R. Kessler, J. Marriner, M. Childress +60

We describe the difference imaging pipeline (DiffImg) used to detect transients in deep images from the Dark Energy Survey Supernova program (DES-SN) in its first observing season…

Constraints on the Richness-Mass Relation and the Optical-SZE Positional Offset Distribution for SZE-Selected Clusters

A. Saro, S. Bocquet, E. Rozo +99

We cross-match galaxy cluster candidates selected via their Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect (SZE) signatures in 129.1 deg of the South Pole Telescope 2500d SPT-SZ survey with optical…

OzDES multi-fibre spectroscopy for the Dark Energy Survey: first-year operation and results

Fang Yuan, C. Lidman, T. M. Davis +99

OzDES is a five-year, 100-night, spectroscopic survey on the Anglo-Australian Telescope, whose primary aim is to measure redshifts of approximately 2,500 Type Ia supernovae host ga…

DESAlert: Enabling Real-Time Transient Follow-Up with Dark Energy Survey Data

A. Poci, K. Kuehn, the DES Collaboration +63

The Dark Energy Survey (DES) is currently undertaking an observational program imaging of the southern hemisphere sky with unprecedented photometric accuracy. In the process…

Automated Transient Identification in the Dark Energy Survey

D. A. Goldstein, C. B. D'Andrea, J. A. Fischer +64

We describe an algorithm for identifying point-source transients and moving objects on reference-subtracted optical images containing artifacts of processing and instrumentation. T…

Search for Gamma-Ray Emission from DES Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy Candidates with Fermi-LAT Data

LAT Collaboration, The DES Collaboration, A. Drlica-Wagner +123

Due to their proximity, high dark-matter content, and apparent absence of non-thermal processes, Milky Way dwarf spheroidal satellite galaxies (dSphs) are excellent targets for the…
