Commensal image plane transient search methods with the SKAO
Alex Andersson, Dougal Dobbie, Natasha Hurley-Walker +7
This chapter outlines the key, state of the art, techniques required to conduct commensal image plane transient searches. Using significant experience and expertise from conducting…
Rapid Response Triggering for Radio Transients with the SKA Observatory
G. E. Anderson, S. I. Chastain, A. P. Curtin +10
Rapid-response triggering is when a telescope is able to automatically respond to an external or internal astronomical transient alert, causing it to rapidly repoint at that positi…
Low-frequency-selected Fast Radio Burst Host Galaxy Candidates
Yu-Zhu Sun, Rhaana L. C. Starling, Rob A. J. Eyles-Ferris +3
We present a pilot study on the host galaxy environments of CHIME/FRBs by cross-matching baseband-localised events with the LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey Data Release 2 (LoTSS DR2) at…
A LOFAR search for coherent radio emission accompanying prompt engine activity in gamma-ray bursts
A. Hennessy, R. L. C. Starling, A. Rowlinson +7
Relativistic jets generated in gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) produce luminous transient events, yet the fundamentals of jet composition and radiation mechanisms remain unclear. One means…
Observatory Science with eXTP
Ping Zhou, Jirong Mao, Liang Zhang +97
Scheduled for launch in 2030, the enhanced X-ray Timing and Polarization (eXTP) telescope is a Chinese space-based mission aimed at studying extreme conditions and phenomena in ast…
The radio flare and multi-wavelength afterglow of the short GRB 231117A: energy injection from a violent shell collision
G. E. Anderson, G. P. Lamb, B. P. Gompertz +64
We present the early radio detection and multi-wavelength modeling of the short gamma-ray burst (GRB) 231117A at redshift . The Australia Telescope Compact Array automatic…
