Blast is a public web application built to find a transient’s host galaxy, identify the available archival data, and measure the resulting host galaxy star formation rates, masses, and stellar ages - for every new transient reported to the IAU in real-time after the transient is announced. This information is not provided by any existing transient broker service.
Blast is developed on GitHub.
If you have a problem or need help using the Blast service at https://blast.scimma.org and cannot find an answer here or in the GitHub Discussions, please đŸ“§ email our support team.
