Search for L4 Earth Trojan asteroids with the 2.5-meter Wide Field Survey Telescope
Junqiang Lu, Lulu Fan, Shaohan Wang +16
Earth Trojan asteroids (ETAs) are a mysterious population, and dynamically stable ETAs, if primordial, could be "living fossils" of the early solar system. To date, there are only…
WFST Astrometric Calibration -- I. Modeling Global Geometric Distortion with Zernike Polynomials
Chao Yang, Min Fang, Xian Zhong Zheng +21
Accurate modeling of geometric distortion is essential for precise astrometric calibration in wide-field imaging surveys. We present a self-calibration method based on Zernike poly…
WFST Supernovae in the First Year: II. SN 2024aedt: Systematical Study of a Transitional Type Ia Supernova
Dezheng Meng, Ji-an Jiang, Xu Kong +26
We present comprehensive photometric and spectroscopic observations of a transitional type Ia SN 2024aedt, discovered by the 2.5-meter Wide Field Survey Telescope (WFST) within one…
WFST Supernovae in the First Year: I. Statistical Study of 16 Early-phase Type Ia Supernovae from the Pilot Survey
Weiyu Wu, Ji-an Jiang, Zelin Xu +27
In this paper we present 16 early-phase type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) discovered during the pilot survey of the 2.5-meter Wide Field Survey Telescope (WFST-PS) from March 4 to July 1…
A Star's Death by a Thousand Cuts: The Runaway Periodic Eruptions of AT2023uqm
Yibo Wang, Tingui Wang, Shifeng Huang +37
Stars on bound orbits around a supermassive black hole may undergo repeated partial tidal disruption events (rpTDEs), producing periodic flares. While several candidates have been…
Multiwavelength Observations of the Apparently Non-repeating FRB 20250316A
Ye Li, Hui Sun, Lei Qian +72
The physical origin of fast radio bursts (FRBs) remains uncertain. Although multiwavelength observations have been widely conducted, only Galactic FRB~20200428D is associated with…
A Glimpse of Satellite Galaxies in the Milky Way with the 2.5-meter Wide Field Survey Telescope (WFST): Bootes III and Draco
Chao Yang, Zhizheng Pan, Min Fang +34
We carry out deep imaging of the Milky Way satellite galaxies, Bootes III and Draco, with WFST as one pilot observing program to demonstrate the capability of WFST. Combining catal…
A pilot survey on globular clusters with the Wide Field Survey Telescope (WFST)
Zhen Wan, Lulu Fan, Xuzhi Li +19
We carry out an imaging survey of six globular clusters (GCs) with a limit magnitude to 22 mag at the 5 sigma level, down to the main sequence stars of the respective cluster, as o…
A Heliocentric-orbiting Objects Processing System (HOPS) for the Wide Field Survey Telescope: Architecture, Processing Workflow, and Preliminary Results
Shao-Han Wang, Bing-Xue Fu, Jun-Qiang Lu +23
Wide-field surveys have markedly enhanced the discovery and study of solar system objects (SSOs). The 2.5-meter Wide Field Survey Telescope (WFST) represents the foremost facility…
The 2.5-meter Wide Field Survey Telescope Real-time Data Processing Pipeline I: From raw data to alert distribution
Minxuan Cai, Zelin Xu, Lulu Fan +13
The Wide Field Survey Telescope (WFST) is a dedicated photometric surveying facility built jointly by the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) and the Purple Mounta…
Minute-cadence observations on Galactic plane with Wide Field Survey Telescope (WFST): Overview, methodology and early results
Jie Lin, Tinggui Wang, Minxuan Cai +26
As the time-domain survey telescope of the highest survey power in the northern hemisphere currently, Wide Field Survey Telescope (WFST) is scheduled to hourly/daily/semi-weekly sc…
Ly imaging around the hyperluminous dust-obscured quasar W22460526 at
Yibin Luo, Lulu Fan, Yongming Liang +10
Hot dust-obscured galaxies (Hot DOGs) are a population of hyperluminous, heavily obscured quasars discovered by the \emph{Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer} (\emph{WISE}) all-sky…
