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…
The Pan-STARRS1 Surveys
K. C. Chambers, E. A. Magnier, N. Metcalfe +123
Pan-STARRS1 has carried out a set of distinct synoptic imaging sky surveys including the Steradian Survey and the Medium Deep Survey in 5 bands (). The mean 5 p…
A search for an optical counterpart to the gravitational wave event GW151226
S. J. Smartt, K. C. Chambers, K. W. Smith +37
We present a search for an electromagnetic counterpart of the gravitational wave source GW151226. Using the Pan-STARRS1 telescope we mapped out 290 square degrees in the optical i_…
On the nature of Hydrogen-rich Superluminous Supernovae
C. Inserra, S. J. Smartt, E. E. E. Gall +33
We present two hydrogen-rich superluminous supernovae (SLSNe), namely SN2013hx and PS15br. These objects, together with SN2008es are the only SLSNe showing a distinct, broad Halpha…
Pan-STARRS and PESSTO search for an optical counterpart to the LIGO gravitational wave source GW150914
S. J. Smartt, K. C. Chambers, K. W. Smith +48
We searched for an optical counterpart to the first gravitational wave source discovered by LIGO (GW150914), using a combination of the Pan-STARRS1 wide-field telescope and the PES…
