Kiso Supernova Survey (KISS): Survey strategy [PDF]

Publications of the Astronomical Society of Japan, 2014
Abstract The Kiso Supernova Survey (KISS) is a high-cadence optical wide-field supernova (SN) survey. The primary goal of the survey is to catch the very early light of a SN, during the shock breakout phase. Detection of SN shock breakouts combined with multi-band photometry obtained with other facilities would provide detailed physical ...
