Detection of PTF10cwr/CSS100313 on PS1 sky survey images and host galaxy identification

• We report that the transient PTF10cwr (Quimby et al. ATEL #2492), a.k.a. CSS100313:112547-084941 (Mahabal et al. ATel #2490), was also recovered on images from the Pan-STARRS Telescope #1 (PS1) as part of the PS1 3Pi survey (PS1-1000037). Magnitudes of i=18.96 and r=18.65 where measured with respect to SDSS sequence stars on March 12.45 and 13.49 UT respectively. Further photometry was gathered at the Liverpool Telescope on March 20.92 and March 23.00 UT.
