Assigning Degrees of Stochasticity to Blazar Light Curves in the Radio Band Using Complex Networks [PDF]
We focus on characterizing the high-energy emission mechanisms of blazars by analyzing the variability in the radio band of the light curves of more than a thousand sources.

Fitting Blazhko light curves [PDF]
The correct amplitude and phase modulation formalism of the Blazhko modulation is given. The harmonic order dependent amplitude and phase modulation form is equivalent with the Fourier decomposition of multiplets.

Classification of Low Earth Orbit (LEO) Resident Space Objects’ (RSO) Light Curves Using a Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) [PDF]
Light curves are plots of brightness measured over time. In the field of Space Situational Awareness (SSA), light curves of Resident Space Objects (RSOs) can be utilized to infer information about an RSO such as the type of object, its attitude, and its ...

TESS–Gaia Light Curve: A PSF-based TESS FFI Light-curve Product
The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) is continuing its second extended mission after 55 sectors of observations. TESS publishes full-frame images (FFIs) at a cadence of 1800, 600, or 200 s, allowing light curves to be extracted for stars ...

Feature-Based Classification Neural Network for Kepler Light Curves from Quarter 1
Determining the types of light curves has been a challenge due to the massive amount of light curves generated by large sky survey programs. In the literature, the light curves classification methods are overly dependent on the imaging quality of the ...

Mass Ratio and Spot Parameter Estimation from Eclipsing Binary Star Light Curves
Eclipsing binary stars have a rich history of contributing to the field of stellar astrophysics. Most of the available information on the fundamental properties of stars has come from the analysis of observations of binaries. The availability of powerful

Diversity of Kilonova Light Curves [PDF]
Abstract We perform radiative transfer simulations for kilonova in various situations, including the cases of prompt collapse to a black hole from neutron star mergers, high-velocity ejecta possibly accelerated by magnetars, and a black hole–neutron star merger.

A Dual Perspective on Geostationary Satellite Monitoring Using DSLR RGB and sCMOS Sloan Filters
This paper outlines a multi-system approach for ground-based optical observations and the characterization of satellites in geostationary orbit. This multi-system approach is based on an in-depth analysis of the key factors to consider for light curve ...

Prospects of Searching for Type Ia Supernovae with 2.5-m Wide Field Survey Telescope
Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are thermonuclear explosions of carbon-oxygen white dwarfs (WDs) and are well-known as a distance indicator. However, it is still unclear how WDs increase their mass near the Chandrasekhar limit and how the thermonuclear ...
