A population of highly energetic transient events in the centres of active galaxies
E. Kankare, R. Kotak, S. Mattila +25
Recent all-sky surveys have led to the discovery of new types of transients. These include stars disrupted by the central supermassive black hole, and supernovae that are 10-100 ti…
The Foundation Supernova Survey: Motivation, Design, Implementation, and First Data Release
Ryan J. Foley, Daniel Scolnic, Armin Rest +25
The Foundation Supernova Survey aims to provide a large, high-fidelity, homogeneous, and precisely-calibrated low-redshift Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) sample for cosmology. The calib…
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…
Physical properties of 15 quasars at
C. Mazzucchelli, E. Bañados, B. P. Venemans +21
Quasars are galaxies hosting accreting supermassive black holes; due to their brightness, they are unique probes of the early universe. To date, only few quasars have been reported…
Measuring Dark Energy Properties with Photometrically Classified Pan-STARRS Supernovae. II. Cosmological Parameters
D. O. Jones, D. M. Scolnic, A. G. Riess +25
We use 1169 Pan-STARRS supernovae (SNe) and 195 low- () SNe Ia to measure cosmological parameters. Though most Pan-STARRS SNe lack spectroscopic classifications, in a p…
Distribution of shape elongations of main belt asteroids derived from Pan-STARRS1 photometry
H. Cibulková, H. Nortunen, J. Ďurech +10
Context. A lot of photometric data is produced by surveys such as Pan-STARRS, LONEOS, WISE or Catalina. These data are a rich source of information about the physical properties of…
