    May 3-5 2023
    Swinburne University of Technology, Melbourne, Australia 

    Rationale

    This workshop will connect researchers in Australia working in multi-wavelength and messenger transients and Fink, a Rubin Community broker that will receive within seconds all of the objects detected by LSST at the Vera C. Rubin Observatory. Currently Fink is processing the data from the Zwicky Transient Facility which serves as a prototype of Rubin. This workshop will develop collaboration across Australian research groups, observing facilities and the Fink collaboration.

    In this workshop we will have:
    - Talks on research topics, telescope facilities in Australia and existing interfaces

    This meeting will be in hybrid format with participants both in person and on zoom.
