Science Cases for the Keck Wide-Field Imager
J. Cooke, C. Angus, K. Auchettl +22
The Keck Wide-Field Imager (KWFI) is a proposed 1-degree diameter field of view UV-sensitive optical camera for Keck prime focus. KWFI will be the most powerful optical wide-field…
Characterizing crosstalk within the Pan-STARRS GPC1 camera
T. J. L. de Boer, M. E. Huber, E. A. Magnier +6
Using data from a year-long dedicated campaign to observe bright stars, we study the crosstalk channels present in the GPC1 camera. By analyzing these data, we construct a dataset…
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…
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 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…
