India's first robotic eye for time domain astrophysics: the GROWTH-India telescope
Harsh Kumar, Varun Bhalerao, G. C. Anupama +35
We present the design and performance of the GROWTH-India telescope, a 0.7 m robotic telescope dedicated to time-domain astronomy. The telescope is equipped with a 4k back-illumina…
The AstroSat Mass Model: Imaging and Flux studies of off-axis sources with CZTI
Sujay Mate, Tanmoy Chattopadhyay, Varun Bhalerao +11
The Cadmium Zinc Telluride Imager (CZTI) on AstroSat is a hard X-ray coded-aperture mask instrument with a primary field of view of 4.6 x 4.6 degrees (FWHM). The instrument collima…
The Case for Probe-class NASA Astrophysics Missions
Martin Elvis, Jon Arenberg, David Ballantyne +45
Astrophysics spans an enormous range of questions on scales from individual planets to the entire cosmos. To address the richness of 21st century astrophysics requires a correspond…
