The Palomar Transient Factory: system overview, performance and first results
- N. Law, S. Kulkarni, J. Zolkower
- Physics
- 30 June 2009
The Palomar Transient Factory (PTF) is a fully-automated, wide-field survey aimed at a systematic exploration of the optical transient sky. The transient survey is performed using a new 8.1 square…
THE FIRST SYSTEMATIC STUDY OF TYPE Ibc SUPERNOVA MULTI-BAND LIGHT CURVES
- M. Drout, A. Soderberg, U. Toronto
- Physics
- 22 November 2010
We present detailed optical photometry for 25 Type Ibc supernovae (SNe Ibc) within d 150 Mpc obtained with the robotic Palomar 60 inch telescope in 2004-2007. This study represents the first uniform,…

A γ-ray burst at a redshift of z ≈ 8.2
Long-duration γ-ray bursts (GRBs) are thought to result from the explosions of certain massive stars, and some are bright enough that they should be observable out to redshifts of z > 20 using…
A continuum of H- to He-rich tidal disruption candidates with a preference for E+A galaxies
- I. Arcavi, A. Gal-yam, R. Laher
- Physics
- 6 May 2014
We present the results of a Palomar Transient Factory (PTF) archival search for blue transients that lie in the magnitude range between "normal" core-collapse and superluminous supernovae (i.e., with…
