A data science platform to enable time-domain astronomy
Michael W. Coughlin, Joshua S. Bloom, Guy Nir +50
SkyPortal is an open-source software package designed to efficiently discover interesting transients, manage follow-up, perform characterization, and visualize the results. By enab…
GROWTH on S190426c II: GROWTH-India Telescope search for an optical counterpart with a custom image reduction and candidate vetting pipeline
Harsh Kumar, Varun Bhalerao, G. C. Anupama +17
S190426c / GW190426_152155 was the first probable neutron star - black hole merger candidate detected by the LIGO-Virgo Collaboration. We undertook a tiled search for optical count…
HEALPix Alchemy: Fast All-Sky Geometry and Image Arithmetic in a Relational Database for Multimessenger Astronomy Brokers
Leo P. Singer, B. Parazin, Michael W. Coughlin +4
Efficient searches for electromagnetic counterparts to gravitational wave, high-energy neutrino, and gamma-ray burst events demand rapid processing of image arithmetic and geometry…
Discovery and characterization of five new eclipsing AM CVn systems
J. van Roestel, T. Kupfer, M. J. Green +19
AM CVn systems are ultra-compact, helium-rich, accreting binaries with degenerate or semi-degenerate donors. We report the discovery of five new eclipsing AM CVn systems with orbit…
Removing Atmospheric Fringes from Zwicky Transient Facility i-Band Images using Principal Component Analysis
Michael S. Medford, Peter Nugent, Danny Goldstein +7
The Zwicky Transient Facility is a time-domain optical survey that has substantially increased our ability to observe and construct massive catalogs of astronomical objects by use…
Optical follow-up of the neutron star-black hole mergers S200105ae and S200115j
Shreya Anand, Michael W. Coughlin, Mansi M. Kasliwal +46
LIGO and Virgo's third observing run (O3) revealed the first neutron star-black hole (NSBH) merger candidates in gravitational waves. These events are predicted to synthesize r-pro…
