The Deeper, Wider, Faster programme's first DECam optical data release
James Freeburn, Jeff Cooke, Anais Möller +17
The transient and variable optical sky is relatively poorly characterised on fast (1hr) timescales. With the Dark Energy Camera (DECam), the Deeper, Wider, Faster programme…
First Temperature Profile of a Stellar Flare using Differential Chromatic Refraction
Riley Clarke, Federica Bianco, James R. A. Davenport +5
We present the first derivation of a stellar flare temperature profile from single-band photometry. Stellar flare DWF030225.574-545707.45129 was detected in 2015 by the Dark Energy…
A Machine Learning empowered search for Sub-Minute Optical Transient Events with the Deeper, Wider, Faster programme
Simon R. Goode, Sara A. Webb, Jeff Cooke +12
Optical transient surveys continue to generate increasingly large datasets, prompting the introduction of machine-learning algorithms to search for quality transient candidates eff…
GRB220831A: a hostless, intermediate Gamma-ray burst with an unusual optical afterglow
James Freeburn, Brendan O'Connor, Jeff Cooke +20
GRB220831A is a gamma-ray burst (GRB) with a duration and spectral peak energy that places it at the interface between the distribution of long-soft and short-hard GRBs. In thi…
