Optical Flashes from Beam-Driven Light Sails with the Roman, Rubin and Euclid Observatories
James Guillochon, Abraham Loeb
The primary challenge of rocket propulsion is the burden of accelerating the spacecraft's own fuel. Light sails leave the propellant at home, with the achievable speed set by the s…
astroquery: An Astronomical Web-Querying Package in Python
Adam Ginsburg, Brigitta M. Sipőcz, C. E. Brasseur +21
astroquery is a collection of tools for requesting data from databases hosted on remote servers with interfaces exposed on the internet, including those with web pages but without…
Multi-Messenger Astrophysics: Harnessing the Data Revolution
Gabrielle Allen, Warren Anderson, Erik Blaufuss +27
The past year has witnessed discovery of the first identified counterparts to a gravitational wave transient (GW 170817A) and a very high-energy neutrino (IceCube-170922A). These s…
Open Astronomy Catalogs API
James Guillochon, Philip S. Cowperthwaite
We announce the public release of the application program interface (API) for the Open Astronomy Catalogs (OACs), the OACAPI. The OACs serve near-complete collections of supernova,…
MOSFiT: Modular Open-Source Fitter for Transients
James Guillochon, Matt Nicholl, V. Ashley Villar +5
Much of the progress made in time-domain astronomy is accomplished by relating observational multi-wavelength time series data to models derived from our understanding of physical…
Enabling New ALMA Science with Improved Support for Time-Domain Observations
Kate D. Alexander, Edo Berger, Geoff Bower +34
While the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) is a uniquely powerful telescope, its impact in certain fields of astrophysics has been limited by observatory policie…
