Studying the Ultraviolet Spectrum of the First Spectroscopically Confirmed Supernova at redshift two
M. Smith, M. Sullivan, R. C. Nichol +87
We present observations of DES16C2nm, the first spectroscopically confirmed hydrogen-free superluminous supernova (SLSN-I) at redshift z~2. DES16C2nm was discovered by the Dark Ene…
OzDES multifibre spectroscopy for the Dark Energy Survey: Three year results and first data release
M. J. Childress, C. Lidman, T. M. Davis +98
We present results for the first three years of OzDES, a six-year programme to obtain redshifts for objects in the Dark Energy Survey (DES) supernova fields using the 2dF fibre pos…
DES15E2mlf: A Spectroscopically Confirmed Superluminous Supernova that Exploded 3.5 Gyr After the Big Bang
Y. -C. Pan, R. J. Foley, M. Smith +63
We present the Dark Energy Survey (DES) discovery of DES15E2mlf, the most distant superluminous supernova (SLSN) spectroscopically confirmed to date. The light curves and Gemini sp…
Extreme variability quasars from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and the Dark Energy Survey
Nick Rumbaugh, Yue Shen, Eric Morganson +49
We perform a systematic search for long-term extreme variability quasars (EVQs) in the overlapping Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and 3-Year Dark Energy Survey (DES) imaging, whic…
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…
Discovery and Physical Characterization of a Large Scattered Disk Object at 92 AU
David Gerdes, Masao Sako, Stephanie Hamilton +65
We report the observation and physical characterization of the possible dwarf planet \UZ\ ("DeeDee"), a dynamically detached trans-Neptunian object discovered at 92 AU. This object…
