The first tidal disruption flare in ZTF: from photometric selection to multi-wavelength characterization
Sjoert van Velzen, Suvi Gezari, S. Bradley Cenko +37
We present Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) observations of the tidal disruption flare AT2018zr/PS18kh reported by Holoien et al. and detected during ZTF commissioning. The ZTF ligh…
Supernova PTF12glz: a possible shock breakout driven through an aspherical wind
Maayane T. Soumagnac, Eran O. Ofek, Avishay Gal-Yam +21
We present visible-light and ultraviolet (UV) observations of the supernova PTF12glz. The SN was discovered and monitored in near-UV and R bands as part of a joint GALEX and Paloma…
catsHTM - A tool for fast accessing and cross-matching large astronomical catalogs
Maayane T. Soumagnac, Eran O. Ofek
Fast access to large catalogs is required for some astronomical applications. Here we introduce the catsHTM tool, consisting of several large catalogs reformatted into HDF5-based f…
Star-galaxy classification in the Dark Energy Survey Y1 dataset
I. Sevilla-Noarbe, B. Hoyle, M. J. Marchã +75
We perform a comparison of different approaches to star-galaxy classification using the broad-band photometric data from Year 1 of the Dark Energy Survey. This is done by performin…
Large scale distribution of mass versus light from Baryon Acoustic Oscillations: Measurement in the final SDSS-III BOSS Data Release 12
M. T. Soumagnac, C. G. Sabiu, R. Barkana +1
Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAOs) in the early Universe are predicted to leave an as yet undetected signature on the relative clustering of total mass versus luminous matter. Thi…
