The Globular Cluster System of NGC 6822
J. Veljanoski, A. M. N. Ferguson, A. D. Mackey +11
We present a comprehensive analysis of the globular cluster (GC) system of the Local Group dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 6822. Our study is based on homogeneous optical and near-IR ph…
A New Faint Milky Way Satellite Discovered in the Pan-STARRS1 3 pi Survey
Benjamin P. M. Laevens, Nicolas F. Martin, Rodrigo A. Ibata +21
We present the discovery of a faint Milky Way satellite, Laevens 2/Triangulum II, found in the Panoramic Survey Telescope And Rapid Response System (Pan-STARRS 1) 3 pi imaging data…
Machine learning for transient discovery in Pan-STARRS1 difference imaging
D. E. Wright, S. J. Smartt, K. W. Smith +15
Efficient identification and follow-up of astronomical transients is hindered by the need for humans to manually select promising candidates from data streams that contain many fal…
A Periodically Varying Luminous Quasar at z=2 from the Pan-STARRS1 Medium Deep Survey: A Candidate Supermassive Black Hole Binary in the Gravitational Wave-Driven Regime
Tingting Liu, Suvi Gezari, Sebastien Heinis +11
Supermassive black hole binaries (SMBHBs) should be an inevitable consequence of the hierarchical growth of massive galaxies through mergers, and the strongest sirens of gravitatio…
GALEX Detection of Shock Breakout in Type II-P Supernova PS1-13arp: Implications for the Progenitor Star Wind
S. Gezari, D. O. Jones, N. E. Sanders +23
We present the GALEX detection of a UV burst at the time of explosion of an optically normal Type II-P supernova (PS1-13arp) from the Pan-STARRS1 survey at z=0.1665. The temperatur…
The identification of z-dropouts in Pan-STARRS1: three quasars at 6.5<z<6.7
B. P. Venemans, E. Bañados, R. Decarli +30
Luminous distant quasars are unique probes of the high redshift intergalactic medium (IGM) and of the growth of massive galaxies and black holes in the early universe. Absorption d…
