THE GALAXY CONTENT OF SDSS CLUSTERS AND GROUPS (2007, background): “…& The DES Collaboration 2005) and the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST6, Tyson 2002) and the Panoramic Survey Telescope & Rapid Response System (Pan-STARRS7, Kaiser et al. 2002) and will be essential for leveraging these data to provide the desired insights into cosmology and galaxy evolution.”
THINK OUTSIDE THE COLOR BOX: PROBABILISTIC TARGET SELECTION AND THE SDSS-XDQSO QUASAR TARGETING CATALOG (2010, methodology): “This selection can then be used to select targets based on combined GALEX and SDSS data, or to use GALEX fluxes instead of the highly discriminating u-band fluxes for surveys such as Pan-STARRS that do not have a u band (Jimenez et al. 2009).”
TOWARD EARLY-WARNING DETECTION OF GRAVITATIONAL WAVES FROM COMPACT BINARY COALESCENCE (2011, methodology): “For comparison to some examples of modern ground-based wide-field survey instruments, the Palomar Transient Factory P48 (Law et al. 2009) has a 3.50× 2.31 deg2 FOV; the Pan-STARRS P1 (Kaiser et al. 2002) has a 7 deg2 FOV.”
THE DIFFERENCE IMAGING PIPELINE FOR THE TRANSIENT SEARCH IN THE DARK ENERGY SURVEY (2015, neutral): “In the recent Pan-STARRS1 cosmology analysis, which uses the same underlying subtraction technique as our DiffImg, their light curve fits have a reduced χ2 distribution with a larger high-side tail than expected (see Fig 6 in Rest et al. (2014)).”
Systematic errors in weak lensing: application to SDSS galaxy-galaxy weak lensing (2005, background): “…Telescope (CFHT) legacy survey (http://www.cfht.hawaii.edu/Science/CFHLS, Mellier 2001), PanStarrs (http://pan-starrs.ifa.hawaii.edu/, Kaiser et al. 2002; Kaiser 2004), LSST (http://www.lsst.org/lsst home.html, Tyson 2002) and SNAP (http://snap.lbl.gov/, Rhodes et al. 2004; Massey…”
PHYSICS OF ECLIPSING BINARIES. II. TOWARD THE INCREASED MODEL FIDELITY (2016, background): “This decade has provided us with a range of ground-breaking surveys and missions: MOST (Walker et al. 2003), CoRoT (Baglin 2003), Kepler (Borucki et al. 2010), Pan-Starrs (Kaiser et al. 2002), Gaia (de Bruijne 2012), and LSST (Tyson & LSST 2002), to name just a few.”
SEARCH FOR GAMMA-RAY EMISSION FROM DES DWARF SPHEROIDAL GALAXY CANDIDATES WITH FERMI-LAT DATA (2015, neutral): “The ensemble of PanSTARRS (Kaiser et al. 2002), the SkyMapper Southern Sky Survey (Keller et al. 2007), DES (Abbott et al. 2005), and the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (Ivezic et al. 2008) will explore large areas of the sky to unprecedented depths.”
THE MILKY WAY TOMOGRAPHY WITH SDSS. III. STELLAR KINEMATICS (2009, background): “The results presented here will be greatly extended by several upcoming large-scale, deep optical surveys, including the Dark Energy Survey (Flaugher 2008), Pan-STARRS (Kaiser et al. 2002), and the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST; Ivezić et al. 2008b).”
Stellar SEDs from 0.3 to 2.5 μm: Tracing the Stellar Locus and Searching for Color Outliers in the SDSS and 2MASS (2007, background): “…surveys are now or will shortly be mapping much of the sky in the optical (the Panoramic Survey Telescope & Rapid Response System [Pan-STARRS], Kaiser et al. 2002, and SkyMapper, Keller et al. 2007) and near infrared (the United Kingdom Infrared Deep Sky Survey [UKIDSS] Warren et al. 2007)…”
IS QUASAR OPTICAL VARIABILITY A DAMPED RANDOM WALK? (2012, methodology): “DES (Collaboration 2005), LSST (Ivezic et al. 2008) and Pan-STARRS (Kaiser et al. 2002) will carry out similar extensions for the SDSS Stripe 82 quasars but generally at lower cadence (albeit for larger numbers of objects).”
TOWARD CHARACTERIZATION OF THE TYPE IIP SUPERNOVA PROGENITOR POPULATION: A STATISTICAL SAMPLE OF LIGHT CURVES FROM Pan-STARRS1 (2014, background): “A complete description of the PS1 system, both hardware and software, is provided by Kaiser et al. (2002).”
THE z = 5 QUASAR LUMINOSITY FUNCTION FROM SDSS STRIPE 82 (2012, background): “Finally, Pan-STARRS (Kaiser et al. 2002) is obtaining shallow optical and nearinfrared imaging, including the y-band, over an area of sky over that is more than twice that of the SDSS.”
THE PAN-STARRS1 DISTANT z > 5.6 QUASAR SURVEY: MORE THAN 100 QUASARS WITHIN THE FIRST GYR OF THE UNIVERSE (2016, background): “Over the last years, we have been searching for highredshift quasars in the PS1 survey (Kaiser et al. 2002, 2010), which has imaged the whole sky above a declination of −30◦ for about four years in five filters (gP1, rP1, iP1, zP1, yP1).”
DISCOVERY OF A BINARY BROWN DWARF AT 2 pc FROM THE SUN (2013, methodology): “…et al. 1999), the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS, York et al. 2000), the United Kingdom Infrared Telescope Infrared Deep Sky Survey (UKIDSS, Lawrence et al. 2007), PanSTARRS1 (PS1, Kaiser et al. 2002), and the survey performed by the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE, Wright et al. 2010).”
THE LAST OF FIRST: THE FINAL CATALOG AND SOURCE IDENTIFICATIONS (2015, background): “For example, Pan-STARRS (PS1 – Kaiser et al. 2002) goes more than 1 magnitude deeper than SDSS in the red and also goes into the Galactic plane where the source density is much higher, demanding better resolution.”
The Zwicky Transient Facility Bright Transient Survey. II. A Public Statistical Sample for Exploring Supernova Demographics (2020, background): “New projects, such as BlackGEM (Groot 2019) and the Gravitational-wave Optical Transient Observer (GOTO; Dyer et al. 2018), are beginning operations, and earlier surveys such as the Panoramic Survey Telescope and Rapid Response System (Pan-STARRS; Kaiser et al. 2002), continue.”
QUASAR CLUSTERING FROM SDSS DR5: DEPENDENCES ON PHYSICAL PROPERTIES (2008, background): “Faint quasar detections are the focus of many ongoing or planned wide-angle survey projects such as BOSS (Schlegel et al. 2007) and Pan-STARRS (Kaiser et al. 2002), which will both broaden the dynamical range and enlarge the sample size.”
