The Zwicky Transient Facility Bright Transient Survey I: Spectroscopic Classification and the Redshift Completeness of Local Galaxy Catalogs
U. C. Fremling, A. A. Miller, Y. Sharma +37
The Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) is performing a three-day cadence survey of the visible Northern sky (~3). The transient candidates found in this survey are announced via pu…
ZTF Early Observations of Type Ia Supernovae I: Properties of the 2018 Sample
Yuhan Yao, Adam A. Miller, S. R. Kulkarni +32
Early-time observations of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are essential to constrain their progenitor properties. In this paper, we present high-quality light curves of 127 SNe Ia dis…
Characterization of the Nucleus, Morphology and Activity of Interstellar Comet 2I/Borisov by Optical and Near-Infrared GROWTH, Apache Point, IRTF, ZTF and Keck Observations
Bryce T. Bolin, Carey M. Lisse, Mansi M. Kasliwal +52
We present visible and near-infrared photometric and spectroscopic observations of interstellar object 2I/Borisov taken from 2019 September 10 to 2019 November 29 using the GROWTH,…
General relativistic orbital decay in a seven-minute-orbital-period eclipsing binary system
Kevin B. Burdge, Michael W. Coughlin, Jim Fuller +23
General relativity predicts that short orbital period binaries emit significant gravitational radiation, and the upcoming Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) is expected to d…
Real-bogus classification for the Zwicky Transient Facility using deep learning
Dmitry A. Duev, Ashish Mahabal, Frank J. Masci +8
Efficient automated detection of flux-transient, reoccurring flux-variable, and moving objects is increasingly important for large-scale astronomical surveys. We present braai, a c…
The Zwicky Transient Facility: Surveys and Scheduler
Eric C. Bellm, Shrinivas R. Kulkarni, Tom Barlow +11
We present a novel algorithm for scheduling the observations of time-domain imaging surveys. Our Integer Linear Programming approach optimizes an observing plan for an entire night…
