Zusammenfassung: | By the middle of next decade, the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) will be in the midst of a decade-long sky survey, en route to producing a deep, multicolor view of the sky and generating potentially a million alerts nightly. Radio wavelength observations will provide independent, complementary views of the sky, and they will be crucial for full exploitation of the LSST data products. A community workshop, hosted by the National Radio Astronomy Observatory in Charlottesville, VA (2013 May 6-8), was held to explore the science themes of time domain radio astronomy and the radio components of multi-wavelength sky surveys, with the aim of identifying emerging scientific and technical capabilities needed for conducting observations in these areas. The focus of this workshop was primarily on centimeter- and meter-wavelength observations (~30 MHz-50 GHz). This document is intended to capture the key conclusions and recommendations of that community workshop. |
