TL;DR
MASTER-Net aims to conduct a rapid, all-sky survey within a single night reaching magnitude 19-20, enabling studies of dark energy, exoplanets, Solar System objects, and gamma-ray burst emissions.
Contribution
It introduces a coordinated multi-telescope system capable of fast, deep sky surveys and prompt follow-up observations for various astrophysical phenomena.
Findings
Successful implementation of a synchronized multi-telescope survey system
Capability to detect supernovae and exoplanets within a single night
Monitoring of gamma-ray burst optical emissions in multiple filters and polarizations
Abstract
The main goal of the MASTER-Net project is to produce a unique fast sky survey with all sky observed over a single night down to a limiting magnitude of 19 - 20mag. Such a survey will make it possible to address a number of fundamental problems: search for dark energy via the discovery and photometry of supernovas (including SNIa), search for exoplanets, microlensing effects, discovery of minor bodies in the Solar System and space-junk monitoring. All MASTER telescopes can be guided by alerts, and we plan to observe prompt optical emission from gamma-ray bursts synchronously in several filters and in several polarization planes.
