On the use of variability time-scales as an early classifier of radio transients and variables
- Abstract:
-
We have shown previously that a broad correlation between the peak radio luminosity and the variability time-scales, approximately L ∝ τ5, exists for variable synchrotron emitting sources and that different classes of astrophysical sources occupy different regions of luminosity and time-scale space. Based on those results, we investigate whether the most basic information available for a newly discovered radio variable or transient – their rise and/or decline rate – can be used to set initial...
