Intermediate Palomar Transient Factory: Realtime Image Subtraction Pipeline [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A fast-turnaround pipeline for realtime data reduction plays an essential role in discovering and permitting follow-up observations to young supernovae and fast-evolving transients in modern time-domain surveys.

Implementation of a Direct-Imaging and FX Correlator for the BEST-2 Array [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
A new digital backend has been developed for the BEST-2 array at Radiotelescopi di Medicina, INAF-IRA, Italy which allows concurrent operation of an FX correlator, and a direct-imaging correlator and beamformer.

GECAM Localization of High-energy Transients and the Systematic Error

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
The Gravitational Wave High-energy Electromagnetic Counterpart All-sky Monitor (GECAM) is a pair of microsatellites (i.e., GECAM-A and GECAM-B) dedicated to monitoring gamma-ray transients including the high-energy electromagnetic counterparts of ...

Pavo: Discovery of a Star-forming Dwarf Galaxy Just Outside the Local Group

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
We report the discovery of Pavo, a faint ( M _V = −10.0), star-forming, irregular, and extremely isolated dwarf galaxy at D ≈ 2 Mpc. Pavo was identified in Dark Energy Camera Legacy Survey imaging via a novel approach that combines low surface brightness

High-speed readout system of X-ray CMOS image sensor for time domain astronomy [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Instrumentation
We developed an FPGA-based high-speed readout system for a complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) image sensor to observe soft X-ray transients in future satellite missions, such as HiZ-GUNDAM.

Time domain astronomy with Swift and Fermi

open access: yesRwanda Journal, 2016
Swift and Fermi are unveiling an unexpectedly rich tapestry of behavior in the transient γ−ray sky. Sources which were already known to be transient − such as pulsars, gamma-ray bursts, and blazars − have been studied in ever-increasing detail. For example, Fermi/LAT has detected 117 pulsars of which 56 are new.

Time-Resolved Spectroscopy with SDSS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We present a brief technical outline of the newly-formed 'Detection of Spectroscopic Differences over Time' (DS/DT) project. Our collaboration is using the individual exposures from the SDSS spectroscopic archive to produce a uniformly-processed set of ...

Kepler Bonus: Light Curves of Kepler Background Sources

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
NASA’s Kepler primary mission observed about 116 deg ^2 in the sky for 3.5 consecutive years to discover Earth-like exoplanets. This mission recorded pixel cutouts, known as target pixel files (TPFs), of over 200,000 targets that were selected to ...
