The Galactic center has some of the highest stellar densities in the Galaxy and a range of interstellar scattering properties that may aid in the detection of new radio-selected transient events. Here we describe a search for radio…
The Survey for Transient Astronomical Radio Emission (STARE) is a wide-field monitor for transient radio emission at 611 MHz on timescales of fractions of a second to minutes. Consisting of multiple geographically separated total-power…
To investigate in more details of Stellar Abundance and Galactic Evolution (SAGE) and in a huge sample, we are performing a northern sky photometric survey named SAGES with the SAGE photometric system, which consists of 8 filters:…
We present CIGALE (Burgarella et al. 2005; Noll et al. 2009), a software developed at the Laboratoire d'Astrophysique de Marseille to fit galaxy spectral energy distributions from the rest-frame far-UV to far-IR wavelength range, and to…
The Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory (CTAO) is going to be the leading observatory for very-high-energy gamma-rays over the next decades. Its unique sensitivity, wide field of view, and rapid slewing capability make the CTAO especially…
We present the first southern-hemisphere all-sky imager and radio-transient monitoring system implemented on two prototype stations of the low-frequency component of the Square Kilometre Array. Since its deployment the system has been used…
