4. Radio transient searches
Evan Keane

I will review the various methods that have been used in the search for transient radio signals. After introducing the so-called "transient phase space", I will present the highlights of the discoveries from the past few years. Then, I shall focus on a number of as-yet-unexplained signals which might prove to be powerful cosmological probes. Next, I will review the known sources...
6. Radio transients in the High Time Resolution Universe radio survey

We are carrying out the most ambitious and comprehensive all-sky survey for pulsars and transient sources to date. Using new digital filterbank backends this survey will create a digital record of the sky that can be data mined in the future and used to search for relativistic binary and millisecond pulsars, RRATs, and extragalactic radio bursts. Using GPU technology we have developed a...

F/(Ph)otometric Robotic Atmospheric Monitor is one of the atmospheric monitoring instruments at the Pierre Auger Observatory in Argentina. FRAM is an optical telescope equipped with CCD cameras and it automatically observes a set of selected standard stars. FRAM observations are used to obtain the wavelength dependence of the light extinction. FRAM telescope is also able to observe secondary...
2. Gamma-ray Observations of Pulsars with the Fermi LAT
Lucas Guillemot

The Large Area Telescope (LAT) on the Fermi satellite has opened a new era in the study of pulsars, by increasing the population of known gamma-ray pulsars from fewer than 10 to more than 120 objects, thereby establishing pulsars as the dominant class of GeV sources in the Galaxy. The improved sensitivity of the LAT has allowed studies of the light curves and spectra of gamma-ray pulsars with...

16. Revealing deaths of massive stars with high-energy neutrinos
Kohta Murase

Neutrinos play important roles in revealing mechanisms of energetic astrophysical explosions such as gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and supernovae (SNe). The large neutrino detector, IceCube has opened a new window of the multi-messenger astronomy. I overview theoretical prospects of high-energy higneutrino emissions from gamma-ray bursts, newly-born magnetars and luminous supernovae in view of...

9. Ground-based gravitational wave detectors and their capabilities through 2020
Bruce Allen
05/02/2013, 14:45
In this talk I describe the advanced ground-based gravitational-wave detector projects (LIGO in the USA, VIRGO in Italy, GEO in Germany, KAGRA in Japan, LIGO in India), review their status and capabilities, and outline the different signal analysis methods and pipelines that are used. We expect that the first direct detections of gravitational waves (perhaps around 2017) will be from the...
