Scheduling in Targeted Transient Surveys and a New Telescope for CHASE

We present a method for scheduling observations in small field-of-view transient targeted surveys. The method is based on maximizing the probability of detection of transient events of a given type and age since occurrence; it requires knowledge of the time since the last observation for every obser...
