  2. GOTO (telescope array) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GOTO_(telescope_array)

    The Gravitational-wave Optical Transient Observer (GOTO) is an array of robotic optical telescopes optimized for the discovery of optical counterparts to gravitational wave events [1] and other multi-messenger signals. The array consists of a network of telescope systems, with each system consisting of eight 0.4m telescopes on a single mounting ...

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Transient_Array_Radio_Telescope

    The Transient Array Radio Telescope (TART) is a low-cost open-source array radio telescope consisting of 24 all-sky GNSS receivers operating at the L1-band (1.575 GHz). TART was designed as an all-sky survey instrument for detecting radio bursts, as well as providing a test-bed for the development of new synthesis imaging and calibration ...

    The 1970s-era electronics were replaced with state-of-the-art equipment. To reflect this increased capacity, VLA officials asked for input from both the scientific community and the public in coming up with a new name for the array, and in January 2012 it was announced that the array would be renamed the "Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array".

    LOFAR – (telescope) LOw Frequency ARray, for radio astronomy; LONEOS – (observing program) Lowell Observatory Near-Earth Object Search; LOSS – (observing program) Lick Observatory Supernova Search; LOTIS – (telescope) Livermore Optical Transient Imaging System, a telescope designed to find the optical counterparts of gamma ray bursts

  7. BlackGEM - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BlackGEM

    Prototype BlackGEM telescope in the dome in Nijmegen, The Netherlands. [3]The BlackGEM array will consist of 10-15 telescopes each 65 cm in diameter when completed. This configuration uniquely allows the pointing of the combined telescope to be matched to the often elongated ellipse-shaped source-location estimates provided by gravitational wave detectors.

  8. Zwicky Transient Facility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zwicky_Transient_Facility

    The Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF, obs. code: I41) is a wide-field sky astronomical survey using a new camera attached to the Samuel Oschin Telescope at Palomar Observatory in San Diego County, California, United States. Commissioned in 2018, it supersedes the (Intermediate) Palomar Transient Factory (2009–2017) that used the same ...
