The Deeper, Wider, Faster Program: Exploring stellar flare activity with deep, fast cadenced DECam imaging via machine learning

Sara Webb, Chris Flynn, Jeff Cooke +9

We present our 500 pc distance-limited study of stellar fares using the Dark Energy Camera as part of the Deeper, Wider, Faster Program. The data was collected via continuous 20-se…

Unsupervised machine learning for transient discovery in Deeper, Wider, Faster light curves

Sara Webb, Michelle Lochner, Daniel Muthukrishna +7

Identification of anomalous light curves within time-domain surveys is often challenging. In addition, with the growing number of wide-field surveys and the volume of data produced…

HSC16aayt: Slowly evolving interacting transient rising for more than 100 days

Takashi J. Moriya, Masaomi Tanaka, Tomoki Morokuma +19

We report our observations of HSC16aayt (SN 2016jiu), which was discovered by the Subaru/Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) transient survey conducted as part of Subaru Strategic Program (SSP…

Gravity and Light: Combining Gravitational Wave and Electromagnetic Observations in the 2020s

R. J. Foley, K. D. Alexander, I. Andreoni +110

As of today, we have directly detected exactly one source in both gravitational waves (GWs) and electromagnetic (EM) radiation, the binary neutron star merger GW170817, its associa…

Probing the extragalactic fast transient sky at minute timescales with DECam

Igor Andreoni, Jeffrey Cooke, Sara Webb +22

Searches for optical transients are usually performed with a cadence of days to weeks, optimised for supernova discovery. The optical fast transient sky is still largely unexplored…

Presto-Color: A Photometric Survey Cadence for Explosive Physics & Fast Transients

Federica B. Bianco, Maria R. Drout, Melissa L. Graham +6

We identify minimal observing cadence requirements that enable photometric astronomical surveys to detect and recognize fast and explosive transients and fast transient features. O…
