The SDSS Coadd: 275 deg^2 of Deep SDSS Imaging on Stripe 82
James Annis, Marcelle Soares-Santos, Michael A. Strauss +17
We present details of the construction and characterization of the coaddition of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Stripe 82 \ugriz\ imaging data. This survey consists of 275 deg of…
A Description of Quasar Variability Measured Using Repeated SDSS and POSS Imaging
Chelsea L. MacLeod, Zeljko Ivezic, Branimir Sesar +9
We provide a quantitative description and statistical interpretation of the optical continuum variability of quasars. The Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) has obtained repeated imag…
Seeing in the dark -- I. Multi-epoch alchemy
Eric M. Huff, Christopher M. Hirata, Rachel Mandelbaum +3
Weak lensing by large-scale structure is an invaluable cosmological tool given that most of the energy density of the concordance cosmology is invisible. Several large ground-based…
SN 2010ay is a Luminous and Broad-lined Type Ic Supernova within a Low-metallicity Host Galaxy
Nathan E. Sanders, A. M. Soderberg, S. Valenti +38
We report on our serendipitous pre-discovery detection and detailed follow-up of the broad-lined Type Ic supernova (SN) 2010ay at z = 0.067 imaged by the Pan-STARRS1 3pi survey jus…
Four new T dwarfs identified in PanSTARRS 1 commissioning data
Niall R. Deacon, Michael C. Liu, Eugene A. Magnier +14
A complete well-defined sample of ultracool dwarfs is one of the key science programs of the Pan-STARRS 1 optical survey telescope (PS1). Here we combine PS1 commissioning data wit…
The Lyman-alpha forest in three dimensions: measurements of large scale flux correlations from BOSS 1st-year data
Anže Slosar, Andreu Font-Ribera, Matthew M. Pieri +34
Using a sample of approximately 14,000 z>2.1 quasars observed in the first year of the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS), we measure the three-dimensional correlation…
