Known asteroid photometry and lightcurve from public alerts #37
Comments
We would need to track |
@dmitryduev Is the procedure above something you intend to implement, or does this require further discussion? |
@stefanv this is fairly straightforward and I don't think this requires further discussion. |
There is now an index on To allow filtering on that in Fritz, a new kind of a filter needs to be implemented:
|
@brycebolin @AshishMahabal as you can see, it's all very doable, but there's quite a bit of work to do.
|
@dmitryduev Thanks. The time series/polynomial fitting will be more involved due to rotations, relative positions of the asteroid, the sun, and Earth. What I was hoping to do is to first get a sense of these variations for a large number of named/known asteroids within ZTF data to be able to define some kind of threshold (as you say in your comment above) which can then be used as a sentinel service. Right now I don't know even the number of observations available within ZTF for various asteroids. |
Closing and opening here: fritz-marshal/fritz#431 |
Would it be possible to use Fritz to show the photometry as a function of time for all known asteroidal sources taken from the alert stream? Showing the photometry as a function of time would enable monitoring of asteroid brightness and detection of sudden brightening events such as those cause by disruptions.
