The Bright Optical flash and Afterglow from the Gamma-Ray Burst GRB 130427A
W. T. Vestrand, J. Wren, A. Panaitescu +9
The optical light that is generated simultaneously with the x-rays and gamma-rays during a gamma-ray burst (GRB) provides clues about the nature of the explosions that occur as mas…
Characterizing a Dramatic Flare on an Ultracool Dwarf Found by the ASAS-SN Survey
Sarah J. Schmidt, Jose L. Prieto, K. Z. Stanek +19
We analyze a magnitude flare on the newly identified M8 dwarf SDSS J022116.84+194020.4 (hereafter SDSSJ0221) detected as part of the All-Sky Automated Survey for Superno…
The Man Behind the Curtain: X-rays Drive the UV through NIR Variability in the 2013 AGN Outburst in NGC 2617
B. J. Shappee, J. L. Prieto, D. Grupe +44
After the All-Sky Automated Survey for SuperNovae (ASAS-SN) discovered a significant brightening of the inner region of NGC 2617, we began a ~70 day photometric and spectroscopic m…
Las Cumbres Observatory Global Telescope Network
T. M. Brown, N. Baliber, F. B. Bianco +52
Las Cumbres Observatory Global Telescope (LCOGT) is a young organization dedicated to time-domain observations at optical and (potentially) near-IR wavelengths. To this end, LCOGT…
Cloud Computing with Context Cameras
A. J. Pickles, W. E. Rosing
We summarize methods and plans to monitor and calibrate photometric observations with our autonomous, robotic network of 2m, 1m and 40cm telescopes. These are sited globally to opt…
