The Pan-STARRS1 Surveys
K. C. Chambers, E. A. Magnier, N. Metcalfe +123
Pan-STARRS1 has carried out a set of distinct synoptic imaging sky surveys including the Steradian Survey and the Medium Deep Survey in 5 bands (). The mean 5 p…
Pan-STARRS Pixel Processing: Detrending, Warping, Stacking
C. Z. Waters, E. A. Magnier, P. A. Price +17
The Pan-STARRS1 Science Consortium have carried out a set of imaging surveys using the 1.4 giga-pixel GPC1 camera on the PS1 telescope. As this camera is composed of many individua…
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…
The Pan-STARRS1 Database and Data Products
H. A. Flewelling, E. A. Magnier, K. C. Chambers +37
This paper describes the organization of the database and the catalog data products from the Pan-STARRS1 Steradian Survey. The catalog data products are available in the form…
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…
A Global Astrometric Solution for Pan-STARRS referenced to ICRF2
C. T. Berghea, V. V. Makarov, J. Frouard +13
We describe development and application of a Global Astrometric Solution (GAS) to the problem of Pan-STARRS1 (PS1) astrometry. Current PS1 astrometry is based on differential astro…
The Detailed Science Case for the Maunakea Spectroscopic Explorer: the Composition and Dynamics of the Faint Universe
Alan McConnachie, Carine Babusiaux, Michael Balogh +173
MSE is an 11.25m aperture observatory with a 1.5 square degree field of view that will be fully dedicated to multi-object spectroscopy. More than 3200 fibres will feed spectrograph…
Of Genes and Machines: application of a combination of machine learning tools to astronomy datasets
S. Heinis, S. Kumar, S. Gezari +8
We apply a combination of a Genetic Algorithms (GA) and Support Vector Machines (SVM) machine learning algorithm to solve two important problems faced by the astronomical community…
