The Gravitational-wave Optical Transient Observer (GOTO): prototype performance and prospects for transient science
D. Steeghs, D. K. Galloway, K. Ackley +50
The Gravitational-wave Optical Transient Observer (GOTO) is an array of wide-field optical telescopes, designed to exploit new discoveries from the next generation of gravitational…
Measurement and Simulation of the Neutron Propagation Time Distribution inside a Neutron Monitor
K. Chaiwongkhot, D. Ruffolo, W. Yamwong +10
Using a setup for testing a prototype for a satellite-borne cosmic-ray ion detector, we have operated a stack of scintillator and silicon detectors on top of the Princess Sirindhor…
Processing GOTO data with the Rubin Observatory LSST Science Pipelines II: Forced Photometry and light curves
L. Makrygianni, J. Mullaney, V. Dhillon +45
We have adapted the Vera C. Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) Science Pipelines to process data from the Gravitational-Wave Optical Transient Observer (GOTO)…
Transient-optimised real-bogus classification with Bayesian Convolutional Neural Networks -- sifting the GOTO candidate stream
T. L. Killestein, J. Lyman, D. Steeghs +45
Large-scale sky surveys have played a transformative role in our understanding of astrophysical transients, only made possible by increasingly powerful machine learning-based filte…
Processing GOTO data with the Rubin Observatory LSST Science Pipelines I : Production of coadded frames
J. R. Mullaney, L. Makrygianni, V. Dhillon +44
The past few decades have seen the burgeoning of wide field, high cadence surveys, the most formidable of which will be the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) to be conducted b…
Machine Learning for Transient Recognition in Difference Imaging With Minimum Sampling Effort
Yik-Lun Mong, Kendall Ackley, Duncan Galloway +45
The amount of observational data produced by time-domain astronomy is exponentially in-creasing. Human inspection alone is not an effective way to identify genuine transients fromt…
Searching for Electromagnetic Counterparts to Gravitational-wave Merger Events with the Prototype Gravitational-wave Optical Transient Observer (GOTO-4)
B. P. Gompertz, R. Cutter, D. Steeghs +49
We report the results of optical follow-up observations of 29 gravitational-wave triggers during the first half of the LIGO-Virgo Collaboration (LVC) O3 run with the Gravitational-…
