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…
Constraining the radio-loud fraction of quasars at z>5.5
E. Bañados, B. P. Venemans, E. Morganson +18
Radio-loud Active Galactic Nuclei at z~2-4 are typically located in dense environments and their host galaxies are among the most massive systems at those redshifts, providing key…
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…
3D Dust Mapping Reveals that Orion Forms Part of a Large Ring of Dust
E. F. Schlafly, G. Green, D. P. Finkbeiner +12
The Orion Molecular Complex is the nearest site of ongoing high-mass star formation, making it one of the most extensively studied molecular complexes in the Galaxy. We have develo…
Serendipitous Discovery of a Thin Stellar Stream near the Galactic Bulge in the Pan-STARRS1 3Pi Survey
Edouard J. Bernard, Annette M. N. Ferguson, Edward F. Schlafly +22
We report the discovery of a thin stellar stream found in Pan-STARRS1 photometry near the Galactic bulge in the constellation of Ophiuchus. It appears as a coherent structure in th…
A Map of Dust Reddening to 4.5 kpc from Pan-STARRS1
E. F. Schlafly, G. Green, D. P. Finkbeiner +17
We present a map of the dust reddening to 4.5 kpc derived from Pan-STARRS1 stellar photometry. The map covers almost the entire sky north of declination -30 degrees at a resolution…
