Zooming In on the Progenitors of Superluminous Supernovae With the HST
R. Lunnan, R. Chornock, E. Berger +25
We present Hubble Space Telescope (HST) rest-frame ultraviolet imaging of the host galaxies of 16 hydrogen-poor superluminous supernovae (SLSNe), including 11 events from the Pan-S…
The Main-Belt Comets: The Pan-STARRS1 Perspective
Henry H. Hsieh, Larry Denneau, Richard J. Wainscoat +17
We analyze 760475 observations of 333026 main-belt objects obtained by the Pan-STARRS1 (PS1) survey telescope between 2012 May 20 and 2013 November 9, a period during which PS1 dis…
A search for planetary eclipses of white dwarfs in the Pan-STARRS1 medium-deep fields
B. J. Fulton, J. L. Tonry, H. Flewelling +7
We present a search for eclipses of 1700 white dwarfs in the Pan-STARRS1 medium-deep fields. Candidate eclipse events are selected by identifying low outliers in over 4.3 mil…
The Optical Luminosity Function of Gamma-ray Bursts deduced from ROTSE-III Observations
X. H. Cui, X. F. Wu, J. J. Wei +16
We present the optical luminosity function (LF) of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) estimated from a uniform sample of 58 GRBs from observations with the Robotic Optical Transient Search Ex…
Observational Constraints on the Catastrophic Disruption Rate of Small Main Belt Asteroids
Larry Denneau, Robert Jedicke, Alan Fitzsimmons +15
We have calculated 90% confidence limits on the steady-state rate of catastrophic disruptions of main belt asteroids in terms of the absolute magnitude at which one catastrophic di…
Spectroscopy of the three distant Andromedan satellites Cassiopeia III, Lacerta I, and Perseus I
Nicolas F. Martin, Kenneth C. Chambers, Michelle L. M. Collins +10
We present Keck II/DEIMOS spectroscopy of the three distant dwarf galaxies of M31 Lacerta I, Cassiopeia III, and Perseus I, recently discovered within the Pan-STARRS1 3πimaging sur…
