GRB~230812B is a bright and relatively nearby () long gamma-ray burst (GRB) that has generated significant interest in the community and has thus been observed over the en…
Chemical Distribution of the Dynamical Ejecta in the Neutron Star Merger GW170817
Shreya Anand, Peter T. H. Pang, Mattia Bulla +11
GW170817 and its associated electromagnetic counterpart AT2017gfo continue to be a treasure trove as observations and modeling continue. Recent precision astrometry of AT2017gfo wi…
Updated observing scenarios and multi-messenger implications for the International Gravitational-wave Network's O4 and O5
R. Weizmann Kiendrebeogo, Amanda M. Farah, Emily M. Foley +14
An advanced LIGO and Virgo's third observing run brought another binary neutron star merger (BNS) and the first neutron-star black hole mergers. While no confirmed kilonovae were i…
GRANDMA and HXMT Observations of GRB 221009A -- the Standard-Luminosity Afterglow of a Hyper-Luminous Gamma-Ray Burst
D. A. Kann, S. Agayeva, V. Aivazyan +113
GRB 221009A is the brightest Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) detected in more than 50 years of study. In this paper, we present observations in the X-ray and optical domains after the GRB ob…
Revealing the strength of three-nucleon interactions with the Einstein Telescope
Henrik Rose, Nina Kunert, Tim Dietrich +5
Three-nucleon forces are crucial for the accurate description of nuclear systems, including dense matter probed in neutron stars. We explore nuclear Hamiltonians that reproduce two…
Bayesian model selection for GRB 211211A through multi-wavelength analyses
Nina Kunert, Sarah Antier, Vsevolod Nedora +12
Although GRB 211211A is one of the closest gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), its classification is challenging because of its partially inconclusive electromagnetic signatures. In this pape…
A very luminous jet from the disruption of a star by a massive black hole
Igor Andreoni, Michael W. Coughlin, Daniel A. Perley +78
Tidal disruption events (TDEs) are bursts of electromagnetic energy released when supermassive black holes (SMBHs) at the centers of galaxies violently disrupt a star that passes t…
An updated nuclear-physics and multi-messenger astrophysics framework for binary neutron star mergers
Peter T. H. Pang, Tim Dietrich, Michael W. Coughlin +18
The multi-messenger detection of the gravitational-wave signal GW170817, the corresponding kilonova AT2017gfo and the short gamma-ray burst GRB170817A, as well as the observed afte…
Quantifying modeling uncertainties when combining multiple gravitational-wave detections from binary neutron star sources
Nina Kunert, Peter T. H. Pang, Ingo Tews +2
With the increasing sensitivity of gravitational-wave detectors, we expect to observe multiple binary neutron-star systems through gravitational waves in the near future. The combi…
