The Gravitational-wave Optical Transient Observer (GOTO): prototype performance and prospects for transient science
D. Steeghs, D. K. Galloway, K. Ackley +50
The Gravitational-wave Optical Transient Observer (GOTO) is an array of wide-field optical telescopes, designed to exploit new discoveries from the next generation of gravitational…
Changing look AGN Mrk 590: Broad line region and black hole mass from photometric reverberation mapping
Amit Kumar Mandal, Malte Schramm, Suvendu Rakshit +9
We present the results of photometric reverberation mapping observations on the changing look active galactic nucleus Mrk 590 at z = 0.026. The observations were carried out from J…
Eclipse timing variations in the WD+dM eclipsing binary RR Cae
R. Rattanamala, S. Awiphan, S. Komonjinda +9
We present the binary model and the eclipse timing variations of the eclipsing binary RR Cae, which consists of a white dwarf eclipsed by an M-type dwarf companion. The multi-wavel…
BM UMa: a middle shallow contact binary at pre-transition stage of evolution from W-type to A-type
T. Sarotsakulchai, B. Soonthornthum, S. Poshyachinda +3
In this study, all unpublished time series photometric data of BM UMa ( 2.0, P = 0.2712\,d) from available archives were re-investigated together with new data taken from t…
Processing GOTO data with the Rubin Observatory LSST Science Pipelines II: Forced Photometry and light curves
L. Makrygianni, J. Mullaney, V. Dhillon +45
We have adapted the Vera C. Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) Science Pipelines to process data from the Gravitational-Wave Optical Transient Observer (GOTO)…
Deep Contrast and Companion Detection Using the EvWaCo Testbed Equipped with an Achromatic Focal Plane Mask and an Adjustable Inner Working Angle
M. A. Alagao, A. Kawinkij, C. Buisset +21
The evanescent wave coronagraph uses the principle of frustrated total internal reflection (FTIR) to suppress the light coming from the star and study its close environment. Its fo…
TransitFit: combined multi-instrument exoplanet transit fitting for JWST, HST and ground-based transmission spectroscopy studies
J. J. C. Hayes, A. Priyadarshi, E. Kerins +19
We present TransitFit, a package designed to fit exoplanetary transit light-curves. TransitFit offers multi-epoch, multi-wavelength fitting of multi-telescope transit data. Transit…
Transient-optimised real-bogus classification with Bayesian Convolutional Neural Networks -- sifting the GOTO candidate stream
T. L. Killestein, J. Lyman, D. Steeghs +45
Large-scale sky surveys have played a transformative role in our understanding of astrophysical transients, only made possible by increasingly powerful machine learning-based filte…
NGTS and HST insights into the long period modulation in GW Librae
P. Chote, B. T. Gaensicke, J. McCormac +17
Light curves of the accreting white dwarf pulsator GW Librae spanning a 7.5 month period in 2017 were obtained as part of the Next Generation Transit Survey. This data set comprise…
