Enabling Astronomical Transient discoveries in the Rubin era: the Fink-Brazil Workshop

 

This event aims to bring together researchers interested in exploring the potential applications of Fink data, both in the context of the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF), as well as the upcoming Vera Rubin Observatory Large Survey of Space and Time (LSST). 

We aim to create connections between domain experts, machine learning specialists, observational facilities and the Fink community. 

The program will include keynote speakers and contributed talks, posters and tutorials that will help prepare the local community for the arrival of LSST data, maximizing the scientific output of the alert stream. 

Researchers from academia as well as industry are welcome to register and submit contributions.

It will be possible to follow the activities remotely. All contributed talks will be delivered in person.

This event is supported by FAPERJ and CNRS-IN2P3.
