A multi-wavelength approach to classifying transient events in the direction of M31
Monika D. Soraisam, Marat Gilfanov, Thomas Kupfer +4
(abridged) In the hunt for rare time-domain events, confusing exotic extragalactic phenomena with more common Galactic foreground events is an important consideration. We show how…
Variability of Red Supergiants in M31 from the Palomar Transient Factory
Monika D. Soraisam, Lars Bildsten, Maria R. Drout +9
Most massive stars end their lives as Red Supergiants (RSGs), a short-lived evolution phase when they are known to pulsate with varying amplitudes. The RSG period-luminosity (PL) r…
Prediction of Supernova Rates in Known Galaxy-galaxy Strong-lens Systems
Yiping Shu, Adam S. Bolton, Shude Mao +3
We propose a new strategy of finding strongly-lensed supernovae (SNe) by monitoring known galaxy-scale strong-lens systems. Strongly lensed SNe are potentially powerful tools for t…
Machine Learning-based Brokers for Real-time Classification of the LSST Alert Stream
Gautham Narayan, Tayeb Zaidi, Monika D. Soraisam +20
The unprecedented volume and rate of transient events that will be discovered by the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) demands that the astronomical community update its follo…
