What We Don't C: Manifold Disentanglement for Structured Discovery
Brian Rogers, Micah Bowles, Chris J. Lintott +3
Accessing information in learned representations is critical for annotation, discovery, and data filtering in disciplines where high-dimensional datasets are common. We introduce W…
Anomaly Hunter for Alerts (AHA): Anomaly Detection in the ZTF Transient Alert Stream
Leyla Iskandarli, Chris J. Lintott, Steve Croft +2
Modern time-domain surveys produce alert streams at a scale that makes exhaustive manual inspection infeasible, requiring automated methods to identify unusual transients for follo…
The Second CHIME/FRB Catalog of Fast Radio Bursts
FRB Collaboration, Thomas Abbott, Bridget C. Andersen +71
We present a catalog of 4539 fast radio bursts (FRBs) observed with the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME) telescope between 25 July 2018 and 15 September 2023.…
Galaxy Zoo Evo: 1 million human-annotated images of galaxies
Mike Walmsley, Steven Bamford, Hugh Dickinson +17
We introduce Galaxy Zoo Evo, a labeled dataset for building and evaluating foundation models on images of galaxies. GZ Evo includes 104M crowdsourced labels for 823k images from fo…
NGTS-EB-8: A double-lined eclipsing M+M binary discovered by citizen scientists
Sean M. O'Brien, Megan E. Schwamb, Christopher A. Watson +54
We report the identification and characterization of a new binary system composed of two near-equal mass M-dwarfs. The binary NGTS-EB-8 was identified as a planet candidate in data…
Galaxy scale consequences of tidal disruption events: extended emission line regions, extreme coronal lines and infrared-to-optical light echoes
Andrew Mummery, Muryel Guolo, James Matthews +3
Stars in galactic centers are occasionally scattered so close to the central supermassive black hole that they are completely disrupted by tidal forces, initiating a transient accr…
