How Many Kilonovae Can Be Found in Past, Present, and Future Survey Datasets?

D. Scolnic, R. Kessler, D. Brout +83

The discovery of a kilonova (KN) associated with the Advanced LIGO (aLIGO)/Virgo event GW170817 opens up new avenues of multi-messenger astrophysics. Here, using realistic simulati…

Characterizing the astrometric precision limit for moving targets observed with digital-array detectors

S. Bouquillon, R. A. Mendez, M. Altmann +5

Aims. We investigate the maximum astrometric precision that can be reached on moving targets observed with digital-sensor arrays, and provide an estimate for its ultimate lower lim…

Exploring Cosmic Origins with CORE: The Instrument

P. de Bernardis, P. A. R. Ade, J. J. A. Baselmans +126

We describe a space-borne, multi-band, multi-beam polarimeter aiming at a precise and accurate measurement of the polarization of the Cosmic Microwave Background. The instrument is…
