Systematic Uncertainties Associated with the Cosmological Analysis of the First Pan-STARRS1 Type Ia Supernova Sample

D. Scolnic, A. Rest, A. Riess +46

We probe the systematic uncertainties from 113 Type Ia supernovae (SNIa) in the Pan-STARRS1 (PS1) sample along with 197 SN Ia from a combination of low-redshift surveys. The compan…

The UV-bright, Slowly Declining Transient PS1-11af as a Partial Tidal Disruption Event

R. Chornock, E. Berger, S. Gezari +34

We present the Pan-STARRS1 discovery of the long-lived and blue transient PS1-11af, which was also detected by GALEX with coordinated observations in the near-ultraviolet (NUV) ban…
