Brief description Tracing the origins of Long Period Transients in the Milky Way . This project aims to revolutionise our understanding of the periodic and bursting sky by systematically probing the relation between neutron stars, fast radio bursts and long period transients using the Australian SKA Pathfinder telescope. The project's intended outcomes are to address the scarcity of knowledge about long period transients by detecting them, studying their emission mechanisms, and exploring their evolution in time and type. Benefits include developing and refining novel open-source search algorithms for radio transients. The project will also result in greater public engagement in science in the form of a comprehensive public outreach program to inspire young adults to pursue STEM.
