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…
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…
GALEX Detection of Shock Breakout in Type II-P Supernova PS1-13arp: Implications for the Progenitor Star Wind
S. Gezari, D. O. Jones, N. E. Sanders +23
We present the GALEX detection of a UV burst at the time of explosion of an optically normal Type II-P supernova (PS1-13arp) from the Pan-STARRS1 survey at z=0.1665. The temperatur…
The identification of z-dropouts in Pan-STARRS1: three quasars at 6.5<z<6.7
B. P. Venemans, E. Bañados, R. Decarli +30
Luminous distant quasars are unique probes of the high redshift intergalactic medium (IGM) and of the growth of massive galaxies and black holes in the early universe. Absorption d…
Selection of Burst-like Transients and Stochastic Variables Using Multi-Band Image Differencing in the Pan-STARRS1 Medium-Deep Survey
S. Kumar, S. Gezari, S. Heinis +24
We present a novel method for the light-curve characterization of Pan-STARRS1 Medium Deep Survey (PS1 MDS) extragalactic sources into stochastic variables (SV) and burst-like (BL)…
