Constraints on the Progenitor of SN 2016gkg From Its Shock-Cooling Light Curve
Iair Arcavi, Griffin Hosseinzadeh, Peter J. Brown +17
SN 2016gkg is a nearby Type IIb supernova discovered shortly after explosion. Like several other Type IIb events with early-time data, SN 2016gkg displays a double-peaked light cur…
A Systematic Search for Periodically Varying Quasars in Pan-STARRS1: An Extended Baseline Test in Medium Deep Survey Field MD09
T. Liu, S. Gezari, W. Burgett +10
We present a systematic search for periodically varying quasars and supermassive black hole binary (SMBHB) candidates in the Pan-STARRS1 (PS1) Medium Deep Survey's MD09 field. From…
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_…
Slow blue nuclear hypervariables in PanSTARRS-1
A. Lawrence, A. G. Bruce, C. MacLeod +23
We discuss 76 large amplitude transients (Delta-m>1.5) occurring in the nuclei of galaxies, nearly all with no previously known Active Galactic Nucleus (AGN). They have been discov…
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…
