Scientific paper

We have recently completed one of the widest, deepest and longest blind radio variability surveys performed to date; and discovered 58 faint and as yet unclassified extreme variables and transients. Light curves for our sources are consistent with a wide variety of known behavior and 50% of our candidates have no optical counterpart down to B = 22. Three candidates coincide with resolved galaxies, one of which falls on the edge of an z=0.02 S0 galaxy. We will investigate these sources with ATCA to obtain additional light curve epochs, polarisation, spectral indices and positions, to shed light what these sources might be, and enable IR/optical follow-up.
