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…
Long-Period Transients as a new frontier in time-domain astronomy
Manisha Caleb, Dougal Dobie, Natasha Hurley-Walker +8
Long-period radio transients (LPTs) are relatively new astrophysical objects occupying the observational gap between canonical pulsars and slowly varying radio variables. They emit…
Probing Physical Conditions in Classical and Symbiotic Novae with the Square Kilometre Array Observatory
Rocco Lico, Marcello Giroletti, Arnau Aguasca-Cabot +9
Cataclysmic variables and symbiotic stars are interacting binary systems in which a hot white dwarf (WD) orbits a companion main-sequence or red giant star, respectively. Accumulat…
White dwarf + M dwarf Detached Binaries in Long Period Radio Transients: Observed Binary Parameters, Evolution, and Population Constraints
Antonio C. Rodriguez, Kareem El-Badry, Iris de Ruiter +4
Long period radio transients (LPTs) are the slowest radio-pulsing sources ever found, with the current population spanning periods of seven minutes to over six hours. Two of the th…
Sporadic radio pulses from a white dwarf binary at the orbital period
I. de Ruiter, K. M. Rajwade, C. G. Bassa +14
Recent observations have revealed rare, previously unknown flashes of cosmic radio waves lasting from milliseconds to minutes, and with periodicity of minutes to an hour. These tra…
