GRBs as Probes of the Early Universe with TSO
Nial Tanvir, Jonathan Grindlay, Edo Berger +12
Long gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are the most luminous known electromagnetic radiation sources in the Universe for the 3 to 300 sec of their prompt flashes (isotropic X/ gamma-ray lumi…
Big Science with a nUV-MidIR Rapid-Response 1.3m telescope at L2
Jonathan Grindlay, Edo Berger, Brian Metzger +12
Time-domain Astrophysics (TDA), a foundation of Astronomy, has become a major part of current and projected (2020s) astrophysics. While much has been derived from temporal measures…
The trail of water and the delivery of volatiles to habitable planets
Klaus M. Pontoppidan, Andrea Banzatti, Edwin Bergin +16
Water is fundamental to our understanding of the evolution of planetary systems and the delivery of volatiles to the surfaces of potentially habitable planets. Yet, we currently ha…
Kilonovae: nUV/Optical/IR Counterparts of Neutron Star Binary Mergers with TSO
Brian D. Metzger, Edo Berger, Jonathan Grindlay +12
With the epochal first detection of gravitational waves from a binary neutron star (NS) merger with the GW170817 event, and its direct confirmation that NS-NS mergers are significa…
Mapping the Inner Structure of Quasars with Time-Domain Spectroscopy
Yue Shen, Scott Anderson, Edo Berger +40
The ubiquitous variability of quasars across a wide range of wavelengths and timescales encodes critical information about the structure and dynamics of the circumnuclear emitting…
Science Impacts of the SPHEREx All-Sky Optical to Near-Infrared Spectral Survey: Report of a Community Workshop Examining Extragalactic, Galactic, Stellar and Planetary Science
Olivier Doré, Michael W. Werner, Matt Ashby +65
SPHEREx is a proposed SMEX mission selected for Phase A. SPHEREx will carry out the first all-sky spectral survey and provide for every 6.2" pixel a spectra between 0.75 and 4.18 $…
