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…
Pan-STARRS 1 observations of the unusual active Centaur P/2011 S1(Gibbs)
H. W. Lin, Y. T. Chen, P. Lacerda +13
P/2011 S1 (Gibbs) is an outer solar system comet or active Centaur with a similar orbit to that of the famous 29P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 1. P/2011 S1 (Gibbs) has been observed by the…
The Extremely Red, Young L Dwarf PSO J318-22: A Free-Floating Planetary-Mass Analog to Directly Imaged Young Gas-Giant Planets
Michael C. Liu, Eugene A. Magnier, Niall R. Deacon +16
We have used Pan-STARRS1 to discover an extremely red late-L dwarf, which has (J-K)_MKO = 2.84 and (J-K)_2MASS = 2.78, making it the reddest known field dwarf and second only to 2M…
Main-Belt Comet P/2012 T1 (PANSTARRS)
Henry H. Hsieh, Heather M. Kaluna, Bojan Novakovic +25
We present initial results from observations and numerical analyses aimed at characterizing main-belt comet P/2012 T1 (PANSTARRS). Optical monitoring observations were made between…
Discovery of Main-Belt Comet P/2006 VW139 by Pan-STARRS1
Henry H. Hsieh, Bin Yang, Nader Haghighipour +39
Main belt asteroid (300163) 2006 VW139 (later designated P/2006 VW139) was discovered to exhibit comet-like activity by the Pan-STARRS1 survey telescope using automated point-sprea…
Observational and Dynamical Characterization of Main-Belt Comet P/2010 R2 (La Sagra)
Henry H. Hsieh, Bin Yang, Nader Haghighipour +36
We present observations of comet-like main-belt object P/2010 R2 (La Sagra) obtained by Pan-STARRS 1 and the Faulkes Telescope-North on Haleakala in Hawaii, the University of Hawai…
Searching for sub-kilometer TNOs using Pan-STARRS video mode lightcurves: Preliminary study and evaluation using engineering data
J. -H. Wang, P. Protopapas, W. -P. Chen +6
We present a pre-survey study of using Pan-STARRS high sampling rate video mode guide star images to search for TNOs. With suitable selection of the guide stars within the Pan-STAR…
