The JCMT Transient Survey : Single Epoch Transients and Variability of Faint Sources
(2022-09-15)
Short-duration flares at millimeter wavelengths provide unique insights into the strongest magnetic reconnection events in stellar coronae, and combine with longer-term variability to introduce complications to next-generation ...
The JCMT Transient Survey: Four-year Summary of Monitoring the Submillimeter Variability of Protostars
(2021-10-21)
We present the four-year survey results of monthly submillimeter monitoring of eight nearby ($<500 $pc) star-forming regions by the JCMT Transient Survey. We apply the Lomb-Scargle Periodogram technique to search for and ...
The JCMT Transient Survey: An Extraordinary Submillimeter Flare in the T Tauri Binary System JW 566
(2019-01-23)
The binary T Tauri system JW 566 in the Orion Molecular Cloud underwent an energetic, short-lived flare observed at submillimetre wavelengths by the SCUBA-2 instrument on 26 November 2016 (UT). The emission faded by nearly ...
How do stars gain their mass? : A JCMT/SCUBA-2 Transient Survey of Protostars in Nearby Star Forming Regions
(2017-10-27)
Most protostars have luminosities that are fainter than expected from steady accretion over the protostellar lifetime. The solution to this problem may lie in episodic mass accretion -- prolonged periods of very low accretion ...
