Pan-Planets: Searching for hot Jupiters around cool dwarfs

C. Obermeier, J. Koppenhoefer, R. P. Saglia +18

The Pan-Planets survey observed an area of 42 sq deg. in the galactic disk for about 165 hours. The main scientific goal of the project is the detection of transiting planets aroun…

Evidence of Fanning in the Ophiuchus Stream

B. Sesar, A. M. Price-Whelan, J. G. Cohen +11

The Ophiuchus stellar stream presents a dynamical puzzle: its old stellar populations ( Gyr) cannot be reconciled with (1) its orbit in a simple model for the Milky Way po…

Pan-STARRS1 variability of XMM-COSMOS AGN. I. Impact on photometric redshifts

T. Simm, R. Saglia, M. Salvato +12

[Abbreviated] Upcoming large area sky surveys like EUCLID and eROSITA crucially depend on accurate photometric redshifts (photo-z). The identification of variable sources, such as…

A supernova distance to the anchor galaxy NGC 4258

J. Polshaw, R. Kotak, K. C. Chambers +8

The fortuitous occurrence of a type II-Plateau (IIP) supernova, SN 2014bc, in a galaxy for which distance estimates from a number of primary distance indicators are available provi…

Constraining the radio-loud fraction of quasars at z>5.5

E. Bañados, B. P. Venemans, E. Morganson +18

Radio-loud Active Galactic Nuclei at z~2-4 are typically located in dense environments and their host galaxies are among the most massive systems at those redshifts, providing key…

Machine learning for transient discovery in Pan-STARRS1 difference imaging

D. E. Wright, S. J. Smartt, K. W. Smith +15

Efficient identification and follow-up of astronomical transients is hindered by the need for humans to manually select promising candidates from data streams that contain many fal…
