Optical observations of supernova candidates with the ILMT
Monalisa Dubey, Bhavya Ailawadhi, Talat Akhunov +10
The International Liquid Mirror Telescope (ILMT) is a 4-m optical ({\em gri} spectral bands) zenithal survey telescope with a field of view of 22.322.3 arcmin, suitable for…
Unveiling photometric transients with the ILMT and their follow-up using DOT
Priyanshi Kumari, Bhavya Ailawadhi, Talat Akhunov +10
The two 4-m class telescopes at the Devasthal site in India are complementary: the 4-m International Liquid Mirror Telescope (ILMT) is dedicated to the discovery of new transient p…
From Sky to Science: Time Domain Astronomy with the ILMT Survey
Kuntal Misra, Bhavya Ailawadhi, Talat Akhunov +10
The PyLMT transient detection pipeline has been operational since November 2023 and has detected 10,000 transients and variable objects in ILMT images in near real time. The…
Modelling the Point Spread Function of ILMT images
Naveen Dukiya, Bhavya Ailawadhi, Talat Akhunov +11
We have devised an approach to model the empirical Point Spread Function (PSF) of the images taken with the 4-meter International Liquid Mirror Telescope (ILMT). The characteristic…
Early NIR echo and the time variable mass loss history of Type IIn SN 2024kgi
Naveen Dukiya, Kuntal Misra, Andrea Pastorello +30
We present a comprehensive analysis of the long-term photometric and spectroscopic monitoring campaign of the Type IIn Supernova (SN) 2024kgi. The SN reaches at peak an -band ab…
Demonstrating the Time-Domain Capabilities of the 4-m International Liquid Mirror Telescope: An Early Census of Transient and Variable Detections
Kumar Pranshu, Kuntal Misra, Bhavya Ailawadhi +11
The PyLMT transient detection pipeline has been operational since November 2023, detecting transient and variable objects in the ILMT images in almost real time. Using the image su…
SN 2022xus: bridging the gap between Type IIP and IIL supernovae
Monalisa Dubey, Kuntal Misra, Naveen Dukiya +16
We present optical photometric and spectroscopic observations of the Type~II supernova SN~2022xus. The SN reached its peak {\em V} band magnitude of mag within 7 day…
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 <= α <…
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…
SN 2024dy: Dust formation in a long-lived Type IIn supernova and constraints on the dust mass
Sota Goto, Masayuki Yamanaka, Koji S. Kawabata +10
Type~IIn supernovae (SNe) are a subclass of core-collapse SNe powered by interaction between the ejecta and the dense circumstellar material. Among them, long-lived Type~IIn events…
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…
Early interaction signatures and an extended plateau phase in Type II SN 2020aze
