Hydrogen-Poor Superluminous Supernovae from the Pan-STARRS1 Medium Deep Survey
R. Lunnan, R. Chornock, E. Berger +31
We present light curves and classification spectra of 17 hydrogen-poor superluminous supernovae (SLSNe) from the Pan-STARRS1 Medium Deep Survey (PS1 MDS). Our sample contains all o…
A Systematic Search for Periodically Varying Quasars in Pan-STARRS1: An Extended Baseline Test in Medium Deep Survey Field MD09
T. Liu, S. Gezari, W. Burgett +10
We present a systematic search for periodically varying quasars and supermassive black hole binary (SMBHB) candidates in the Pan-STARRS1 (PS1) Medium Deep Survey's MD09 field. From…
PS1-14bj: A Hydrogen-Poor Superluminous Supernova With a Long Rise and Slow Decay
R. Lunnan, R. Chornock, E. Berger +27
We present photometry and spectroscopy of PS1-14bj, a hydrogen-poor superluminous supernova (SLSN) at redshift discovered in the last months of the Pan-STARRS1 Medium De…
The Time Domain Spectroscopic Survey: Variable Object Selection and Anticipated Results
Eric Morganson, Paul J. Green, Scott F. Anderson +37
We present the selection algorithm and anticipated results for the Time Domain Spectroscopic Survey (TDSS). TDSS is an SDSS-IV eBOSS subproject that will provide initial identifica…
Towards Characterization of the Type IIP Supernova Progenitor Population: a Statistical Sample of Light Curves from Pan-STARRS1
N. E. Sanders, A. M. Soderberg, S. Gezari +30
In recent years, wide-field sky surveys providing deep multi-band imaging have presented a new path for indirectly characterizing the progenitor populations of core-collapse supern…
Selecting superluminous supernovae in faint galaxies from the first year of the Pan-STARRS1 Medium Deep Survey
M. McCrum, S. J. Smartt, A. Rest +36
The Pan-STARRS1 (PS1) survey has obtained imaging in 5 bands (grizy_P1) over 10 Medium Deep Survey (MDS) fields covering a total of 70 square degrees. This paper describes the sear…
