Studying the Ultraviolet Spectrum of the First Spectroscopically Confirmed Supernova at redshift two
M. Smith, M. Sullivan, R. C. Nichol +87
We present observations of DES16C2nm, the first spectroscopically confirmed hydrogen-free superluminous supernova (SLSN-I) at redshift z~2. DES16C2nm was discovered by the Dark Ene…
On the Progenitor of Binary Neutron Star Merger GW170817
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1095
On 2017 August 17 the merger of two compact objects with masses consistent with two neutron stars was discovered through gravitational-wave (GW170817), gamma-ray (GRB 170817A), and…
GW170608: Observation of a 19-solar-mass Binary Black Hole Coalescence
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1101
On June 8, 2017 at 02:01:16.49 UTC, a gravitational-wave signal from the merger of two stellar-mass black holes was observed by the two Advanced LIGO detectors with a network signa…
Evidence for Dynamically Driven Formation of the GW170817 Neutron Star Binary in NGC 4993
A. Palmese, W. Hartley, F. Tarsitano +89
We present a study of NGC 4993, the host galaxy of the GW170817 gravitational wave event, the GRB170817A short gamma-ray burst (sGRB) and the AT2017gfo kilonova. We use Dark Energy…
Search for High-energy Neutrinos from Binary Neutron Star Merger GW170817 with ANTARES, IceCube, and the Pierre Auger Observatory
A. Albert, M. Andre, M. Anghinolfi +1931
The Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo observatories recently discovered gravitational waves from a binary neutron star inspiral. A short gamma-ray burst (GRB) that followed the merg…
Gravitational Waves and Gamma-rays from a Binary Neutron Star Merger: GW170817 and GRB 170817A
LIGO Scientific Collaboration, Virgo Collaboration, Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor +1
On 2017 August 17, the gravitational-wave event GW170817 was observed by the Advanced LIGO and Virgo detectors, and the gamma-ray burst (GRB) GRB 170817A was observed independently…
Search for post-merger gravitational waves from the remnant of the binary neutron star merger GW170817
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1105
The first observation of a binary neutron star coalescence by the Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo gravitational-wave detectors offers an unprecedented opportunity to study matter…
The Electromagnetic Counterpart of the Binary Neutron Star Merger LIGO/VIRGO GW170817. II. UV, Optical, and Near-IR Light Curves and Comparison to Kilonova Models
P. S. Cowperthwaite, E. Berger, V. A. Villar +141
We present UV, optical, and NIR photometry of the first electromagnetic counterpart to a gravitational wave source from Advanced LIGO/Virgo, the binary neutron star merger GW170817…
The Electromagnetic Counterpart of the Binary Neutron Star Merger LIGO/Virgo GW170817. I. Dark Energy Camera Discovery of the Optical Counterpart
M. Soares-Santos, D. E. Holz, J. Annis +142
We present the Dark Energy Camera (DECam) discovery of the optical counterpart of the first binary neutron star merger detected through gravitational wave emission, GW170817. Our o…
GW170817 Falsifies Dark Matter Emulators
Sibel Boran, Shantanu Desai, Emre Kahya +1
On August 17, 2017 the LIGO interferometers detected the gravitational wave (GW) signal (GW170817) from the coalescence of binary neutron stars. This signal was also simultaneously…
Estimating the Contribution of Dynamical Ejecta in the Kilonova Associated with GW170817
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1100
The source of the gravitational-wave signal GW170817, very likely a binary neutron star merger, was also observed electromagnetically, providing the first multi-messenger observati…
