The ROTSE-III Robotic Telescope System

C. W. Akerlof, M. C. B. Ashley, D. E. Casperson +12

The observation of a prompt optical flash from GRB990123 convincingly demonstrated the value of autonomous robotic telescope systems. Pursuing a program of rapid follow-up observat…

The Cluster Mass Function from Early SDSS Data: Cosmological Implications

Neta A. Bahcall, Feng Dong, Paul Bode +15

The mass function of clusters of galaxies is determined from 400 deg^2 of early commissioning imaging data of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey; ~300 clusters in the redshift range z =…

An Untriggered Search for Optical Bursts

Robert Kehoe, Carl Akerlof, Richard Balsano +11

We present an untriggered search for optical bursts with the ROTSE-I telephoto array. Observations were taken which monitor an effective 256 square degree field continuously over 1…
