A Matched Filter Technique for Slow Radio Transient Detection and First Demonstration with the Murchison Widefield Array

Many astronomical sources produce transient phenomena at radio frequencies, but the transient sky at low frequencies ( < 300 MHz) remains relatively unexplored. Blind surveys with new wide-field radio instruments are setting increasingly stringent limits on the transient surface density on va...
