Detection and identification of asteroids with the 4-m ILMT
Sara Filali, Bhavya Ailawadhi, Talat Akhunov +11
The International Liquid Mirror Telescope (ILMT) covers a 22.3' wide strip of sky in declination (δ), centred at δ = +29° 21' 41.4'' and right ascension (α) in the range 0 h <=…
Astrometric Calibration of the 4-m International Liquid Mirror Telescope Observations
Vibhore Negi, Naveen Dukiya, Gokul Singh Mehra +12
The 4-m International Liquid Mirror Telescope (ILMT) is a dedicated time domain survey telescope that continuously scans the zenithal sky over the Indian Himalayas in the g', r' an…
Transfer learning for transient search with small-field optical survey telescopes
Kumar Pranshu, Kuntal Misra, Rithesh A +2
The advent of optical sky surveys has enabled several automated programs for searching transients. Many of these programs extensively use supervised machine learning (ML) algorithm…
Performance of the 4-m International Liquid Mirror Telescope tested in two fields at high and low ecliptic and galactic latitudes
Sara Filali, Kumar Pranshu, Jean Surdej +10
The 4-m International Liquid Mirror Telescope (ILMT) offers a unique opportunity to detect transients in a narrow strip of sky. We explore ILMT's potential to detect astrometric an…
Gaia GraL: Gaia gravitational lens systems IX. Using XGBoost to explore the Gaia Focused Product Release GravLens catalogue
Quentin Petit, Christine Ducourant, Eric Slezak +21
Aims. Quasar strong gravitational lenses are important tools for putting constraints on the dark matter distribution, dark energy contribution, and the Hubble-Lemaitre parameter. W…
Advancing European High-Contrast Imaging R&D Towards the Habitable Worlds Observatory
Iva Laginja, Ãscar Carrión-González, Romain Laugier +31
The Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) will enable a transformative leap in the direct imaging and characterization of Earth-like exoplanets. For this, NASA is focusing on early in…
