Hiding in Plain Sight - Recovering Clusters of Galaxies with the Strongest AGN in Their Cores

T. S. Green, A. C. Edge, H. Ebeling +8

A key challenge in understanding the feedback mechanism of AGN in Brightest Cluster Galaxies (BCGs) is the inherent rarity of catching an AGN during its strong outburst phase. This…

Machine-Learned Identification of RR Lyrae Stars from Sparse, Multi-band Data: the PS1 Sample

Branimir Sesar, Nina Hernitschek, Sandra Mitrović +16

RR Lyrae stars may be the best practical tracers of Galactic halo (sub-)structure and kinematics. The PanSTARRS1 (PS1) survey offers multi-band, multi-epoch, precise photometr…

A Synoptic Map of Halo Substructures from the Pan-STARRS1 3π Survey

Edouard J. Bernard, Annette M. N. Ferguson, Edward F. Schlafly +18

We present a panoramic map of the entire Milky Way halo north of dec~-30 degrees (~30,000 deg^2), constructed by applying the matched-filter technique to the Pan-STARRS1 3Pi Survey…

The Pan-STARRS1 distant z>5.6 quasar survey: more than 100 quasars within the first Gyr of the universe

E. Bañados, B. P. Venemans, R. Decarli +33

Luminous quasars at z>5.6 can be studied in detail with the current generation of telescopes and provide us with unique information on the first gigayear of the universe. Thus far…

A Multi-Wavelength Photometric Census of AGN and Star Formation Activity in the Brightest Cluster Galaxies of X-ray Selected Clusters

T. S. Green, A. C. Edge, J. P. Stott +8

Despite their reputation as being "red and dead", the unique environment inhabited by Brightest Cluster Galaxies (BCGs) can often lead to a self-regulated feedback cycle between ra…

Mapping the Monoceros Ring in 3D with Pan-STARRS1

Eric Morganson, Blair Conn, Hans-Walter Rix +16

Using the Pan-STARRS1 survey, we derive limiting magnitude, spatial completeness and density maps that we use to probe the three dimensional structure and estimate the stellar mass…
