iPTF ARCHIVAL SEARCH FOR FAST OPTICAL TRANSIENTS
There has been speculation of a class of relativistic explosions with an initial Lorentz factor Γinit smaller than that of classical Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs). These “dirty fireballs” would lack prompt GRB emission but could be pursued via their optical afterglow, appearing as transients that fade overnight. Here we report a search for such transients (transients that fade by 5-σ in magnitude ove...
متن کاملA GPU-based survey for millisecond radio transients using ARTEMIS
Astrophysical radio transients are excellent probes of extreme physical processes originating from compact sources within our Galaxy and beyond. Radio frequency signals emitted from these objects provide a means to study the intervening medium through which they travel. Next generation radio telescopes are designed to explore the vast unexplored parameter space of high time resolution astronomy...
متن کامل“An Internet Protocol Testing Framework” ipTF
As the Internet expands and proliferates it gives rise to new technologies that require supporting Internet protocols. Some recent examples include HTTP, POP, IMAP and IIOP. Internet applications are generally based on a client server model. This results in protocols being developed to support communication between the client and server. Additionally many existing protocols are updated regularl...
متن کاملA Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Survey of Luminous Cool Stars
FUSE ultraviolet spectra of 8 giant and supergiant stars reveal that high temperature (3×10K) atmospheres are common in luminous cool stars and extend across the color-magnitude diagram from α Car (F0 II) to the cool giant α Tau (K5 III). Emission present in these spectra includes chromospheric H-Lyβ, Fe II, C I, and transition region lines of C III, O VI, Si III, Si IV. Emission lines of Fe XV...
متن کاملCool helium-rich white dwarfs from the Hamburg/ESO survey
We present an analysis of 40 cool helium-rich white dwarfs found in the Hamburg/ESO survey. They were selected for follow-up spectroscopy because of their U −B colour below -0.18, the absence of strong absorption lines, and a continuum shape similar to that of a quasar. Effective temperatures for individual stars were determined by fitting model atmospheres of nearly pure helium with a small ad...
