Design and performance of the PALM-3000 3.5 kHz upgrade
Seth R. Meeker, Tuan N. Truong, Jennifer E. Roberts +11
PALM-3000 (P3K), the second generation adaptive optics (AO) instrument for the 5.1 meter Hale telescope at Palomar Observatory, was released as a facility class instrument in Octob…
Using the generalised-optical differentiation wavefront sensor for laser guide star wavefront sensing
Sebastiaan Y. Haffert, Christoph U. Keller, Richard Dekany
Laser guide stars (LGS) are used in many adaptive optics systems to extend sky coverage. The most common wavefront sensor used in combination with a LGS is a Shack-Hartmann wavefro…
Initial Characterization of Active Transitioning Centaur, P/2019 LD2 (ATLAS), using Hubble, Spitzer, ZTF, Keck, APO and GROWTH Visible & Infrared Imaging and Spectroscopy
Bryce T. Bolin, Yanga R. Fernandez, Carey M. Lisse +43
We present visible and mid-infrared imagery and photometry of temporary Jovian co-orbital comet P/2019 LD taken with HST/WFC3, Spitzer/IRAC, the GROWTH telescope network, visib…
An 8.8 minute orbital period eclipsing detached double white dwarf binary
Kevin B. Burdge, Michael W. Coughlin, Jim Fuller +13
We report the discovery of ZTF J2243+5242, an eclipsing double white dwarf binary with an orbital period of just minutes, the second known eclipsing binary with an orbital pe…
The Zwicky Transient Facility Bright Transient Survey. II. A Public Statistical Sample for Exploring Supernova Demographics
Daniel A. Perley, Christoffer Fremling, Jesper Sollerman +34
We present a public catalog of transients from the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) Bright Transient Survey (BTS), a magnitude-limited (m<19 mag in either the g or r filter) survey…
The ZTF Source Classification Project: II. Periodicity and variability processing metrics
Michael W. Coughlin, Kevin Burdge, Dmitry A. Duev +22
The current generation of all-sky surveys is rapidly expanding our ability to study variable and transient sources. These surveys, with a variety of sensitivities, cadences, and fi…
