Abstract: Abstract We have realised a simple prototype system to perform searches for short timescale optical transients, utilising the novel drift scan imaging technique described by Tingay (2020). We used two coordinated and aligned cameras, with… read more here.

Abstract: We developed a pulsar search pipeline based on PRESTO (PulsaR Exploration and Search Toolkit). This pipeline simply runs dedispersion, FFT (Fast Fourier Transformation), and acceleration search in process-level parallel to shorten the processing time. With… read more here.
