DELVE 6: An Ancient, Ultra-faint Star Cluster on the Outskirts of the Magellanic Clouds
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 We present the discovery of DELVE 6, an ultra-faint stellar system identified in the second data release of the DECam Local Volume Exploration (DELVE) survey. Based on a maximum-likelihood fit to its structure and stellar population, we find that DELVE 6

The All-Sky 408 MHz Survey [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1981 The 408 MHz All-sky Survey has been made from four radio continuum surveys observed between 1965 and 1978, using the Jodrell Bank MKI telescope, the Effelsberg 100 metre telescope and the Parkes 64 metre telescope. A detailed description of the survey data reduction and calibration methods, with preliminary astronomical results will soon be published ...

Surveying the Bright Sky [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2011 AbstractThe AAVSO is initiating a new survey of the sky. It will cover the entire visible sky, both north and south, on a daily basis, in two colours, and with a limiting magnitude of V = 17. This will be a perfect complement to LSST, but will be available years earlier and will continue into the indefinite future.

Synoptic Sky Surveys and the Diffuse Supernova Neutrino Background: Removing Astrophysical Uncertainties and Revealing Invisible Supernovae [PDF]
, 2010 The cumulative (anti)neutrino production from all core-collapse supernovae within our cosmic horizon gives rise to the diffuse supernova neutrino background (DSNB), which is on the verge of detectability.
