Multi-sensor fusion for fine-guidance and milliarcsecond-level attitude estimation of balloon-borne telescope

Philippe Voyer, Maya Amit, Steven J. Benton +44

Balloon-borne telescopes rely on fine-guidance systems to achieve milliarcsecond image stability despite residual disturbances from the balloon environment. In these systems, the F…

Optimizing spectroscopic follow-up strategies for supernova photometric classification with active learning

E. E. O. Ishida, R. Beck, S. Gonzalez-Gaitan +10

We report a framework for spectroscopic follow-up design for optimizing supernova photometric classification. The strategy accounts for the unavoidable mismatch between spectroscop…
