Description:
We introduce the Pan-Pacific Planet Search, a survey of 170 metal-rich Southern Hemisphere subgiants using the 3.9m Anglo-Australian Telescope. We report the first discovery from this program, a giant planet orbiting 7 CMa (HD 47205) with a period of 763+/-17 days, eccentricity e=0.14+/-0.06, and msin i=2.6+/-0.6M_Jup_. The host star is a K giant with a mass of 1.5+/-0.3M_{sun}_ and metallicity [Fe/H]=0.21+/-0.10. The mass and period of 7 CMa b are typical of planets which have been found to orbit intermediate-mass stars (M_*_>1.3M_{sun}_). Hipparcos photometry shows this star to be stable to 0.0004 mag on the radial-velocity period, giving confidence that this signal can be attributed to reflex motion caused by an orbiting planet.

Description:
Pan-STARRS is a system for wide-field astronomical imaging developed and operated by the Institute for Astronomy at the University of Hawaii. Pan-STARRS1 (PS1) is the first part of Pan-STARRS to be completed and is the basis for Data Release 1 (DR1). The PS1 survey used a 1.8 meter telescope and its 1.4 Gigapixel camera (GPC1; see PS1 GPC1 camera) to image the sky in five broadband filters (g, r, i, z, y). The PS1 Science Consortium funded the operation of the Pan-STARRS1 telescope, situated at Haleakala Observatories near the summit of Haleakala in Hawaii, for the purposes of astronomical research. The PS1 consortium is made up of astronomers and engineers from 14 institutions from six countries. The Pan-STARRS Data Release 1 Object Catalog "Best" filtered exists in the MAST holdings and is thus available through a cone search. The filtered data is a ~2billion row subset based on an object having more than 2 detections. All available catalogs are listed at http://archive.stsci.edu/vo/mast_services.html.

Title:
Pan-STARRS lens candidates from neural networks

Description:
We present a systematic search for wide-separation (with Einstein radius ~1.5"), galaxy-scale strong lenses in the 30000 sq.deg of the Pan-STARRS 3pi survey on the Northern sky. With long time delays of a few days to weeks, these types of systems are particularly well-suited for catching strongly lensed supernovae with spatially-resolved multiple images and offer new insights on early-phase supernova spectroscopy and cosmography. We produced a set of realistic simulations by painting lensed COSMOS sources on Pan-STARRS image cutouts of lens luminous red galaxies (LRGs) with redshift and velocity dispersion known from the sloan digital sky survey (SDSS). First, we computed the photometry of mock lenses in gri bands and applied a simple catalog-level neural network to identify a sample of 1050207 galaxies with similar colors and magnitudes as the mocks. Second, we trained a convolutional neural network (CNN) on Pan-STARRS gri image cutouts to classify this sample and obtain sets of 105760 and 12382 lens candidates with scores of pCNN>0.5 and >0.9, respectively. Extensive tests showed that CNN performances rely heavily on the design of lens simulations and the choice of negative examples for training, but little on the network architecture. The CNN correctly classified 14 out of 16 test lenses, which are previously confirmed lens systems above the detection limit of Pan-STARRS. Finally, we visually inspected all galaxies with pCNN>0.9 to assemble a final set of 330 high-quality newly-discovered lens candidates while recovering 23 published systems. For a subset, SDSS spectroscopy on the lens central regions proves that our method correctly identifies lens LRGs at z~0.1-0.7. Five spectra also show robust signatures of high-redshift background sources, and Pan-STARRS imaging confirms one of them as a quadruply-imaged red source at z_s_=1.185, which is likely a recently quenched galaxy strongly lensed by a foreground LRG at z_d_=0.3155. In the future, high-resolution imaging and spectroscopic follow-up will be required to validate Pan-STARRS lens candidates and derive strong lensing models. We also expect that the efficient and automated two-step classification method presented in this paper will be applicable to the ~4 mag deeper gri stacks from the Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) with minor adjustments.

Pan-STARRS 1: occurrence in the Kepler field
Short Name:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The NASA Kepler mission has revolutionized time-domain astronomy and has massively expanded the number of known extrasolar planets. However, the effect of wide multiplicity on exoplanet occurrence has not been tested with this data set. We present a sample of 401 wide multiple systems containing at least one Kepler target star. Our method uses Pan-STARRS 1 and archival data to produce an accurate proper motion catalogue of the Kepler field. Combined with Pan-STARRS 1 SED fits and archival proper motions for bright stars, we use a newly developed probabilistic algorithm to identify likely wide binary pairs which are not chance associations. As byproducts of this we present stellar SED templates in the Pan-STARRS 1 photometric system and conversions from this system to Kepler magnitudes. We find that Kepler target stars in our binary sample with separations above 6arcsec are no more or less likely to be identified as confirmed or candidate planet hosts than a weighted comparison sample of Kepler targets of similar brightness and spectral type. Therefore we find no evidence that binaries with projected separations greater than 3000au affect the occurrence rate of planets with P<300d around FGK stars.

Title:
Pan-STARRS1 transients optical photometry
Short Name:
J/ApJ/794/23
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
In the past decade, several rapidly evolving transients have been discovered whose timescales and luminosities are not easily explained by traditional supernovae (SNe) models. The sample size of these objects has remained small due, at least in part, to the challenges of detecting short timescale transients with traditional survey cadences. Here we present the results from a search within the Pan-STARRS1 Medium Deep Survey (PS1-MDS) for rapidly evolving and luminous transients. We identify 10 new transients with a time above half-maximum (t_1/2_) of less than 12 days and -16.5>M>-20 mag. This increases the number of known events in this region of SN phase space by roughly a factor of three. The median redshift of the PS1-MDS sample is z=0.275 and they all exploded in star-forming galaxies. In general, the transients possess faster rise than decline timescale and blue colors at maximum light (g_P1_-r_P1_<~-0.2). Best-fit blackbodies reveal photospheric temperatures/radii that expand/cool with time and explosion spectra taken near maximum light are dominated by a blue continuum, consistent with a hot, optically thick, ejecta. We find it difficult to reconcile the short timescale, high peak luminosity (L>10^43^ erg/s), and lack of UV line blanketing observed in many of these transients with an explosion powered mainly by the radioactive decay of ^56^Ni. Rather, we find that many are consistent with either (1) cooling envelope emission from the explosion of a star with a low-mass extended envelope that ejected very little (<0.03 M_{sun}_) radioactive material, or (2) a shock breakout within a dense, optically thick, wind surrounding the progenitor star. After calculating the detection efficiency for objects with rapid timescales in the PS1-MDS we find a volumetric rate of 4800-8000 events/yr/Gpc^3^ (4%-7% of the core-collapse SN rate at z=0.2).

Title:
Parameters of Spiral galaxies from SDSS 7
Short Name:
J/MNRAS/425/2741
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
We have compiled a sample of 3041 spiral galaxies with multiband gri imaging from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Data Release 7 (DR7; Abazajian et al., 2009ApJS..182..543A) and available galaxy rotational velocities, V, derived from HI linewidths. We compare the data products provided through the SDSS imaging pipeline with our own photometry of the SDSS images, and use the velocities, V, as an independent metric to determine ideal galaxy sizes (R) and luminosities (L). Our radial and luminosity parameters improve upon the SDSS DR7 Petrosian radii and luminosities through the use of isophotal fits to the galaxy images. This improvement is gauged via VL (Vmag-Luminosity) and RV relations whose respective scatters are reduced by ~8 and ~30% with our parameters compared to similar relations built with SDSS parameters.

Description:
The U.S. Naval Observatory is in the process of making new reductions of the Astrographic Catalogue (AC) using a modern reference system, the ACRS, which represents the system of the FK5. The data from the Paris Zone, whose plates are centered between declinations +18 and +24 degrees (eq. 1900), have been analyzed for scale, rotation, tilt, coma, magnitude equation, radial distortion and distortions introduced by the use of reseaux in the Carte du Ciel program. The result is a positional catalog of over 253,000 stars on eq. J2000.0, epoch of observation. Additionally, all stars have been matched with the Tycho Input Catalog (revised); those numbers have been added for additional identification purposes.

Title:
Parkes High-Latitude H I Survey
Short Name:
VIII/8A
Date:
21 Oct 2021
Publisher:
CDS
Description:
This survey consists of HI 21-cm spectra covering the southern sky with absolute galactic latitude |b|>=10 degrees and declination dec<=-30 degrees. The observations were made with the Parkes Radio Observatory (CSIRO) 60-foot telescope. The receiver back end was the Parkes 64-channel spectrometer. The velocity resolution was 7km/s (33kHz) and the beamwidth (HPBW) was 48arcmin. Drift scans at constant declination were used with continuous integration in right ascension for -80<=declination<=-30 degrees. For declination<-80 degrees a grid of positions spaced 1 degree apart in declination and one beam-width apart in right ascension were observed. The survey was made in two parts. Part 1 included b>=-25 degrees, |b|>=10 degrees and declination dec<=-30 degrees. Part 2 included b<=-25 degrees and dec<=-30 degrees. The scans in Part 1 were spaced at 1 degree intervals in declination and the velocity coverage was from -148 to +300km/s. The scans in Part 2 were spaced at 2 degrees and the velocity coverage was from -230 to +218km/s. Each spectrum or record consists of a header followed by 64 antenna temperatures. The header contains the galactic longitude, galactic latitude, right ascension, declination, central velocity (LSR), and quality factor. The catalog contains a total of 9891 spectra.

Title:
Parkes Multi-Beam Pulsar Survey. IV.
Short Name:
J/MNRAS/352/1439
Date:

Publisher:
CDS
Description:
The Parkes multibeam pulsar survey has led to the discovery of more than 700 pulsars. In this paper, we provide timing solutions, flux densities and pulse profiles for 180 of these new discoveries. Two pulsars, PSRs J17362843 and J18470130, have rotational periods P>6s and are therefore among the slowest rotating radio pulsars known. Conversely, with P=1.8ms, PSR J18431113 has the third-shortest period of pulsars currently known. This pulsar and PSR J1905+0400 (P=3.8ms) are both solitary. We also provide orbital parameters for a new binary system, PSR J14205625, which has P=34ms, an orbital period of 40d and a minimum companion mass of 0.4M_{sun}_. The 10{deg}-wide strip along the Galactic plane that was surveyed is known to contain 264 radio pulsars that were discovered prior to the multibeam pulsar survey. We have redetected almost all of these pulsars and provide new dispersion measure values and flux densities at 20cm for the redetected pulsars.
