The Evryscope Fast Transient Engine: Real-Time Detection for Rapidly Evolving Transients
Hank Corbett, Jonathan Carney, Ramses Gonzalez +8
Astrophysical transients with rapid development on sub-hour timescales are intrinsically rare. Due to their short durations, events like stellar superflares, optical flashes from g…
Low-Cost Access to the Deep, High-Cadence Sky: the Argus Optical Array
Nicholas M. Law, Hank Corbett, Nathan W. Galliher +16
New mass-produced, wide-field, small-aperture telescopes have the potential to revolutionize ground-based astronomy by greatly reducing the cost of collecting area. In this paper,…
The Robotilter: An Automated Lens / CCD Alignment System for the Evryscope
Jeffrey K. Ratzloff, Nicholas M. Law, Henry T. Corbett +2
Camera lenses are increasingly used in wide-field astronomical surveys due to their high performance, wide field-of-view (FOV) unreachable from traditional telescope optics, and mo…
Building the Evryscope: Hardware Design and Performance
Jeffrey K. Ratzloff, Nicholas M. Law, Octavi Fors +4
The Evryscope is a telescope array designed to open a new parameter space in optical astronomy, detecting short timescale events across extremely large sky areas simultaneously. Th…
Evryscope science: exploring the potential of all-sky gigapixel-scale telescopes
Nicholas M. Law, Octavi Fors, Jeffrey Ratzloff +11
Low-cost mass-produced sensors and optics have recently made it feasible to build telescope arrays which observe the entire accessible sky simultaneously. In this article we discus…
The Evryscope: the first full-sky gigapixel-scale telescope
Nicholas M. Law, Octavi Fors, Philip Wulfken +2
Current time-domain wide-field sky surveys generally operate with few-degree-sized fields and take many individual images to cover large sky areas each night. We present the design…
