LSST broker dreams

My day ended with a long conversation with Sjoert van Velzen (NYU), Tyler Pritchard (NYU), and Maryam Modjaz (NYU), about possible things we could be doing in the LSST time-domain and broker space. Our general interest is in finding interesting and unusual and outlier events that are interesting either because they are unprecedented, or because they are unusual within some subclass, or because they imply odd physical parameters or strange conditions. But we don't have much beyond that! We need to get serious in the next few months because there will be proposal calls.
