Robotic Astronomy with the Faulkes Telescopes and Las Cumbres Observatory Global Telescope

We present results from ongoing science projects conducted by members of the Faulkes Telescope (FT) team and Las Cumbres Observatory Global Telescope (LCOGT). Many of these projects incorporate observations carried out and analysed by FT users, comprising amateur astronomers and schools. We also dis...
