Possible filter issue with latest Lasair upgrade?

Support Lasair
#1

Dear Lasair team,

I have a filter that I have been running regularly for months now to search for new nuclear transients. I have noticed that after the update I do not see new candidates when I run it (I have made no changes to the filter). Currently the “newest” candidate I see was reported to the TNS on April 15th, when usually I have around one or two new events per day. I am filtering by TNS discovery date. I’m wondering if this is something that may be related to the last Lasair upgrade or if anyone else has reported similar problems.

Thank you,
Eduardo Concepcion

Hi Eduardo
First of course, thank you for using Lasair! But please give the id number of the filter (its the number in the URL), so I can investigate.

Hi Eduardo – Thank you for alerting us to this. We did a big upgrade 2 weeks ago and forgot to put back the daily service that updates the TNS. Sorry! Anyway, I just reran your filter and got a result from 2025-05-03.

Can you check and confirm that the problem is fixed? That way the Rubin staff can close the ticket.
Thanks again
Roy
