Characterizing Photonic Ring Resonator Filters for OH Suppressed Near-infrared Astronomy

A. Hermann, J. Lasker, R. Vaisakh +6

Supernova cosmology relies on accurate measurement of the absolute magnitudes of Type Ia supernovae. Observation in the visible incurs significant systematic uncertainties in these…

Dark Energy Survey Year 3 Results: Point-Spread Function Modeling

M. Jarvis, G. M. Bernstein, A. Amon +79

We introduce a new software package for modeling the point-spread function (PSF) of astronomical images, called Piff (PSFs In the Full FOV), which we apply to the first three years…

Photonic ring resonator filters for astronomical OH suppression

S. C. Ellis, S. Kuhlmann, K. Kuehn +9

Ring resonators provide a means of filtering specific wavelengths from a waveguide, and optionally dropping the filtered wavelengths into a second waveguide. Both of these features…

The Difference Imaging Pipeline for the Transient Search in the Dark Energy Survey

R. Kessler, J. Marriner, M. Childress +60

We describe the difference imaging pipeline (DiffImg) used to detect transients in deep images from the Dark Energy Survey Supernova program (DES-SN) in its first observing season…

The Dark Energy Camera

B. Flaugher, H. T. Diehl, K. Honscheid +115

The Dark Energy Camera is a new imager with a 2.2-degree diameter field of view mounted at the prime focus of the Victor M. Blanco 4-meter telescope on Cerro Tololo near La Serena,…

Automated Transient Identification in the Dark Energy Survey

D. A. Goldstein, C. B. D'Andrea, J. A. Fischer +64

We describe an algorithm for identifying point-source transients and moving objects on reference-subtracted optical images containing artifacts of processing and instrumentation. T…

DECam integration tests on telescope simulator

M. Soares-Santos, J. Annis, M. Bonati +31

The Dark Energy Survey (DES) is a next generation optical survey aimed at measuring the expansion history of the universe using four probes: weak gravitational lensing, galaxy clus…
