Prospects of SETI by small size optical telescopes [PDF]
In the present manuscript we consider the possibility of conducting SETI with small-size (with diameters less than 1 m) optical telescopes. Calculations are performed for typical parameters of the mentioned type of telescopes. In particular, we show that

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 ...
