摘要:The Transients Key Science Project (TKP) is one of six Key Science Projects of the next generation
radio telescope LOFAR. Its aim is the study of transient and variable low-frequency radio
sources with an extremely broad science case ranging from relativistic jet sources to pulsars, exoplanets,
flare stars, radio bursts at cosmological distances, the identification of gravitational wave
sources and even SETI. In these proceedings we will discuss some of the science goals of the
TKP and with the roll out of the first few stations having begun we describe the current status of
some of the pipelines being developed for the TKP.
