Optimizing Serendipitous Detections of Kilonovae: Cadence and Filter Selection
Mouza Almualla, Shreya Anand, Michael W. Coughlin +9
The rise of multi-messenger astronomy has brought with it the need to exploit all available data streams and learn more about the astrophysical objects that fall within its breadth…
Constraining the Kilonova Rate with Zwicky Transient Facility Searches Independent of Gravitational Wave and Short Gamma-ray Burst Triggers
Igor Andreoni, Erik C. Kool, Ana Sagues Carracedo +34
The first binary neutron star merger, GW170817, was accompanied by a radioactivity-powered optical/infrared transient called a kilonova. To date, no compelling kilonova has been fo…
White Paper on MAAT@GTC
Francisco Prada, Robert Content, Ariel Goobar +41
MAAT is proposed as a visitor mirror-slicer optical system that will allow the OSIRIS spectrograph on the 10.4-m Gran telescopio CANARIAS (GTC) the capability to perform Integral F…
Kilonova Luminosity Function Constraints based on Zwicky Transient Facility Searches for 13 Neutron Star Mergers
Mansi M. Kasliwal, Shreya Anand, Tomas Ahumada +100
We present a systematic search for optical counterparts to 13 gravitational wave (GW) triggers involving at least one neutron star during LIGO/Virgo's third observing run. We searc…
Spectroscopy of the first resolved strongly lensed Type Ia supernova iPTF16geu
J. Johansson, A. Goobar, S. H. Price +14
We report the results from spectroscopic observations of the multiple images of the strongly lensed Type Ia supernova (SN Ia), iPTF16geu, obtained with ground based telescopes and…
Detectability of kilonovae in optical surveys: - examination of the LVC O3 run follow-up
A. Sagués Carracedo, M. Bulla, U. Feindt +1
The detection of the binary neutron star merger GW170817 and the associated electromagnetic (EM) counterpart, the "kilonova" (kN) AT2017gfo, opened a new era in multi-messenger ast…
