Predicting Interstellar Object Chemodynamics with Gaia by Matthew J. Hopkins, Michele T. Bannister, Chris Lintott

“…We predict that this richly textured distribution will be differentiable from smooth Gaussians in samples that are within the expected discovery capacity of the Vera C. Rubin Observatory. Solar neighborhood ISOs will be of all ages and come from a dynamic mix of many different populations of stars, reflecting their origins from all around the Galactic disk.…”

Finding Lensed Radio Sources with the Very Large Array Sky Survey by Michael N. Martinez, Yjan A. Gordon, Keith Bechtol, Gillian Cartwright, Peter S. Ferguson, Miranda Gorsuch

“…This work demonstrates the efficacy of combining deep- and high-resolution wide-area radio and optical survey data to efficiently find lensed radio sources, and we discuss the potential impact of such an approach using next-generation surveys with the Vera C. Rubin Observatory, Euclid, and Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope.…”
