The Perkins INfrared Exosatellite Survey (PINES) II. Transit Candidates and Implications for Planet Occurrence around L and T Dwarfs
Patrick Tamburo, Philip S. Muirhead, Allison M. McCarthy +7
We describe a new transit detection algorithm designed to detect single transit events in discontinuous Perkins INfrared Exosatellite Survey (PINES) observations of L and T dwarfs.…
The Perkins INfrared Exosatellite Survey (PINES) I. Survey Overview, Reduction Pipeline, and Early Results
Patrick Tamburo, Philip S. Muirhead, Allison M. McCarthy +9
We describe the Perkins INfrared Exosatellite Survey (PINES), a near-infrared photometric search for short-period transiting planets and moons around a sample of 393 spectroscopica…
The Photo-z Infrared Telescope (PIRT) -- a space instrument for rapid follow up of high-redshift gamma-ray bursts and electromagnetic counterparts to gravitational wave events
M. Seiffert, A. Balady, T. -C. Chang +17
The Photo-z InfraRed Telescope (PIRT) is an instrument on the Gamow Explorer, currently proposed for a NASA Astrophysics Medium Explorer. PIRT works in tandem with a companion wide…
The Gamow Explorer: A gamma-ray burst observatory to study the high redshift universe and enable multi-messenger astrophysics
N. E. White, F. E. Bauer, W. Baumgartner +63
The Gamow Explorer will use Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) to: 1) probe the high redshift universe (z > 6) when the first stars were born, galaxies formed and Hydrogen was reionized; and…
SUBARU prime focus spectrograph: integration, testing and performance for the first spectrograph
F. Madec, A. Le Fur, D. Le Mignant +22
The Prime Focus Spectrograph (PFS) of the Subaru Measurement of Images and Redshifts (SuMIRe) project for Subaru telescope consists in four identical spectrographs fed by 600 fiber…
Visible camera cryostat design and performance for the SuMIRe Prime Focus Spectrograph (PFS)
Stephen A. Smee, James E. Gunn, Mirek Golebiowski +13
We describe the design and performance of the SuMIRe Prime Focus Spectrograph (PFS) visible camera cryostats. SuMIRe PFS is a massively multi-plexed ground-based spectrograph consi…
A Novel Reflectometer for Relative Reflectance Measurements of CCDs
Murdock Hart, Robert H. Barkhouser, James E. Gunn +1
The high quantum efficiencies (QE) of backside illuminated charge coupled devices (CCD) has ushered in the age of the large scale astronomical survey. The QE of these devices can b…

Naoyuki Tamura, Naruhisa Takato, Atsushi Shimono +97
PFS (Prime Focus Spectrograph), a next generation facility instrument on the 8.2-meter Subaru Telescope, is a very wide-field, massively multiplexed, optical and near-infrared spec…
Prime Focus Spectrograph for the Subaru telescope: massively multiplexed optical and near-infrared fiber spectrograph
Hajime Sugai, Naoyuki Tamura, Hiroshi Karoji +81
The Prime Focus Spectrograph (PFS) is an optical/near-infrared multifiber spectrograph with 2394 science fibers distributed across a 1.3-deg diameter field of view at the Subaru 8.…
The near infrared camera for the Subaru Prime Focus Spectrograph
Stephen A. Smee, James E. Gunn, Mirek Golebiowski +10
We present the detailed design of the near infrared camera for the SuMIRe (Subaru Measurement of Images and Redshifts) Prime Focus Spectrograph (PFS) being developed for the Subaru…
Current status of the Spectrograph System for the SuMIRe/PFS
S. Vives, D. Le Mignant, J. E. Gunn +17
The Prime Focus Spectrograph (PFS) is a new facility instrument for Subaru Telescope which will be installed in around 2017. It is a multi-object spectrograph fed by about 2400 fib…
