The Zwicky Transient Facility Bright Transient Survey I: Spectroscopic Classification and the Redshift Completeness of Local Galaxy Catalogs
U. C. Fremling, A. A. Miller, Y. Sharma +37
The Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) is performing a three-day cadence survey of the visible Northern sky (~3). The transient candidates found in this survey are announced via pu…
Perception-Distortion Trade-off with Restricted Boltzmann Machines
Chris Cannella, Jie Ding, Mohammadreza Soltani +1
In this work, we introduce a new procedure for applying Restricted Boltzmann Machines (RBMs) to missing data inference tasks, based on linearization of the effective energy functio…
Towards Rate Estimation for Transient Surveys I: Assessing Transient Detectability and Volume Sensitivity for iPTF
Deep Chatterjee, Peter E. Nugent, Patrick R. Brady +3
The last couple of decades have seen an emergence of transient detection facilities in various avenues of time domain astronomy which has provided us with a rich dataset of transie…
Machine Learning for the Zwicky Transient Facility
Ashish Mahabal, Umaa Rebbapragada, Richard Walters +47
The Zwicky Transient Facility is a large optical survey in multiple filters producing hundreds of thousands of transient alerts per night. We describe here various machine learning…
The GROWTH Marshal: A Dynamic Science Portal for Time-Domain Astronomy
M. M. Kasliwal, C. Cannella, A. Bagdasaryan +9
We describe a dynamic science portal called the GROWTH Marshal that allows time-domain astronomers to define science programs, program filters to save sources from different discov…
The Zwicky Transient Facility: Data Processing, Products, and Archive
Frank J. Masci, Russ R. Laher, Ben Rusholme +46
The Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) is a new robotic time-domain survey currently in progress using the Palomar 48-inch Schmidt Telescope. ZTF uses a 47 square degree field with a…
ZTF 18aaqeasu (SN 2018byg): A Massive Helium-shell Double Detonation on a Sub-Chandrasekhar Mass White Dwarf
Kishalay De, Mansi M. Kasliwal, Abigail Polin +24
The detonation of a helium shell on a white dwarf has been proposed as a possible explosion triggering mechanism for Type Ia supernovae. Here, we report ZTF 18aaqeasu (SN 2018byg/A…
