VizieR Online Data Catalog: Panchromatic observations of PTF11qcj (Corsi+, 2014)

On 2011 November 1, we discovered PTF11qcj in an R-band image from the 48 inch Samuel Oschin telescope at Palomar Observatory (P48), which is routinely used by the Palomar Transient Factory (PTF).

Subsequent observations with the P48 were conducted with the Mould-R and Gunn-g filters. Photometry (Table2) was performed relative to the SDSS r-band and g-band magnitudes of stars in the field. Multi-color optical (gri) optical light curves were also obtained using the Palomar 60 inch telescope (P60) and the RATCAM optical imager on the robotic 2m Liverpool Telescope (LT) located at the Roque de Los Muchachos Observatory on La Palma.

On 2011 November 15, we started a long-term monitoring campaign of PTF11qcj (along with calibrators J1327+4326 and 3C 286) with the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA; http://public.nrao.edu/telescopes/vla) in its D, DnC, C, CnB, and A configurations, under our Target of Opportunity programs (VLA/11A-227, VLA/11B-034, VLA/11B-247, VLA/12B-195; PI: A. Corsi). The light curves of PTF11qcj at frequencies of 2.5GHz, 3.5GHz, 5GHz, 7.4GHz, 13.5GHz, 16GHz are reported in Table3. We also observed the field of PTF11qcj (together with the test calibrator J1203+480) using the Combined Array for Research in Millimeter-wave Astronomy (CARMA; http://www.mmarray.org/), at a frequency of 93GHz. The data collected on 2011 November 19 and 2011 November 26 (CARMA program no. c0857; PI: A. Horesh) both resulted in a detection of PTF11qcj (Table3).

We have carried out an X-ray monitoring campaign of PTF11qcj with Chandra and Swift. All our Swift-XRT observations yielded non detections (see Table 4), while Chandra detected PTF11qcj in three epochs (DDT proposals nos. 501793, 501794, 501797; PI: A. Corsi). The results of our X-ray follow-up are reported in Table4.

We observed the position of PTF11qcj with Spitzer on two epochs (on 2012 March 28.747 and 2012 June 25.643; Table5; DDT proposal no. 31731; PI: A. Corsi). On 2012 March 28 (Table5), we also observed the field of PTF11qcj in K_s-band with the Palomar 200 inch telescope (P200).
