Feature request: Search on TNS name

[astro-mf]

On the cone search page (https://lasair-iris.roe.ac.uk/conesearch/) it would be very useful if a user could search by TNS name (ie. SN2021aaa / AT2021aaa) as well as ZTF name.

This is done, please give it a try.
Example: put AT2021apf into https://lasair-iris.roe.ac.uk/conesearch/

Hi Roy, Thanks for implementing this. However, while this seems to work for AT2021apf, it doesn't work for other transients in the TNS - for example SN2021csp gives me "SN2021csp not found in TNS " (this particular SN is definitely in TNS, and is also known to ZTF as ZTF21aakilyd. Cheers, Morgan

While we have both SN2021csp and ZTF21aakilyd in the database, the connection between them has not been made. I find that some matching processes have been running out of memory. Let me rebuild next week and solve the memory problem.

Ok, thanks!

Morgan
I think things are correct now about past TNS, and correct about processing future TNS. Can you give it another try? And let me know if you find any other discrepancies.

Hi Roy, Looks like some objects are still missing for example SN2020zhd / ZTF20acphbem Cheers, Morgan

ZTF20acphbem has not had a detection since last December. It is in the old Lasair (https://lasair.roe.ac.uk/object/ZTF20acphbem/). But the new Lasair (https://lasair-iris.roe.ac.uk/) started recording data in February 2021, so we don't have it.

[astro-mf]

Ah, I see. Personally, my feeling is that it would be quite important to also include old data - there will be many transients where there is some historical precursor activity that could be of interest. In addition, there could be old transients on the TNS that were discovered long before ZTF and that are on TNS where people would be interested in any new activity. If this is not technically possible to implement, then I think it should be made quite clear to the user that the database only goes back as far as X. Otherwise people may mistakenly think there are no ZTF detections for a given transient.
