Thomas,Chen Wu +28 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a new method to standardize Type Ia supernova luminosities to ~<0.13 magnitudes using flux ratios from a single flux-calibrated spectrum per SN.

Predicting Resource Requirement in Intermediate Palomar Transient Factory Workflow
Qiao Kang,Alex Sim,Peter Nugent,Sunwoo Lee,Wei-keng Liao,Ankit Agrawal,Alok Choudhary,Kesheng Wu +7 more
TL;DR: A machine learning strategy is proposed for quickly identifying astronomical transients from synoptic surveys and its effectiveness is demonstrated using a set of timing measurements from the intermediate Palomar Transient Factory (iPTF) workflow.
