Observing optical transients from Astro-COLIBRI alerts
Responding to an Astro-COLIBRI alert, I imaged the unclassified optical transient AT 2023yoa in M31 using a Rc filter. My general question about optical transients - are there any archives interested in saving an optical transient image? I signed up for Kilonova Catcher / GRANDMA but noticed they are selective on what events they wish to archive observer images. Are these optical transients of scientific interest? I understand that afterglows from gravity waves, gamma ray bursts, and bright supernovas are of interest, but GWs and GRBs are difficult to capture because of the large field
