The Breakthrough Listen Search for Intelligent Life: Searching Boyajian's Star for Laser Line Emission
David Lipman, Howard Isaacson, Andrew P. V. Siemion +10
Boyajian' s Star (KIC 8462852) has received significant attention due to its unusual periodic brightness fluctuations detected by the Kepler Spacecraft and subsequent ground based…
The Breakthrough Listen Search for Intelligent Life: No Evidence of Claimed Periodic Spectral Modulations in High Resolution Optical Spectra of Nearby Stars
Howard Isaacson, Andrew P. V. Siemion, Geoffrey W. Marcy +4
We report on high-resolution spectra obtained by the Automated Planet Finder and high resolution optical Levy Spectrometer and the search for periodic spectral modulations, such as…
Verifying and Reporting Fast Radio Bursts
Griffin Foster, Aris Karastergiou, Marisa Geyer +6
Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) are a class of short-duration transients at radio wavelengths with inferred astrophysical origin. The prototypical FRB is a broadband signal that occurs ov…
Detection of a glitch in the pulsar J1709-4429
Marcus E. Lower, Chris Flynn, Matthew Bailes +24
We report the detection of a glitch event in the pulsar J17094429 (also known as B170644) during regular monitoring observations with the Molonglo Observatory Synthesis Teles…
Highest-frequency detection of FRB 121102 at 4-8 GHz using the Breakthrough Listen Digital Backend at the Green Bank Telescope
V. Gajjar, A. P. V. Siemion, D. C. Price +28
We report the first detections of the repeating fast radio burst source FRB 121102 above 5.2 GHz. Observations were performed using the 48 GHz receiver of the Robert C. Byrd Gre…
The Breakthrough Listen Search for Intelligent Life: Wide-bandwidth Digital Instrumentation for the CSIRO Parkes 64-m Telescope
Danny C. Price, David H. E. MacMahon, Matt Lebofsky +22
Breakthrough Listen is a ten-year initiative to search for signatures of technologies created by extraterrestrial civilizations at radio and optical wavelengths. Here, we detail th…
