Difference: MarshalOperations (1 vs. 2)

If you would like to set up a script that auto-annotates sources in your science program, please email contact_growth with the field name, field datatype and and field definition. This is to avoid redundant auto-annotations.

Another option is that sources can be added manually from the "Add Source" page. This is to facilitate that sources from any survey could be of interest for follow-up for the Science Program.

This is a follow-up marshal i.e. when you save a candidate as a source, you are expressing interest in following it up. If you have added zero follow-up data to your source in ~100 days, your sources will be deleted (with a warning message of course). You are encouraged to fine-tune your filters to match your follow-up appetite.

Example of a marshal filter

This filter selects transient candidates which are astrophysical (based on rbscore) + not asteroids (two detections) + not stars (no known point source underneath). Once you form a Science Program, you will need to write a custom filter to select candidates that meet your specific science goals. This filter is only an example. Currently, you can write a filter based on any of the information available to you in the P48 avro packet. (Additional parameters from external databases may also become available in the near future, stay tuned)
