TL;DR: In this article, Pan-STARRS1 was used to discover an extremely red late-L dwarf, PSO J318-22, which has (J-K)_MKO = 2.78, making it the reddest known field dwarf and second only to 2MASS J1207-39b among substellar companions.

TL;DR: In this paper, a set of 76 grizy-band Type IIP SNe light curves from Pan-STARRS1, obtained over a constant survey program of 4 years and classified using both spectroscopy and machine learning-based photometric techniques, are assembled and applied a new Bayesian model for the full multi-band evolution of each light curve in the sample.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The Pan-STARRS1 discovery of the long-lived and blue transient PS1-11af was also detected by GALEX with coordinated observations in the near-ultraviolet (NUV) band as discussed by the authors.
