A standard siren measurement of the Hubble constant using GW170817 and the latest observations of the electromagnetic counterpart afterglow

A. Palmese, R. Kaur, A. Hajela +3

We present a new constraint on the Hubble constant using the latest measurements of the electromagnetic counterpart to the gravitational wave (GW) event GW170817. We use the…

Revisiting the Parameter Space of Binary Neutron Star Merger Event GW170817

Austin McDowell, Andrew MacFadyen

Since the gravitational wave event GW170817 and gamma-ray burst GW170817A there have been numerous studies constraining the burst properties through analysis of the afterglow light…

Evidence for X-ray Emission in Excess to the Jet Afterglow Decay 3.5 yrs After the Binary Neutron Star Merger GW 170817: A New Emission Component

A. Hajela, R. Margutti, J. S. Bright +34

For the first years after the binary neutron star merger event GW 170817 the radio and X-ray radiation has been dominated by emission from a structured relativistic off-axi…

Deceleration of relativistic jets with lateral expansion

Wenbin Lu, Paz Beniamini, Austin McDowell

We present a model for the hydrodynamics of a relativistic jet interacting with the circum-stellar medium (CSM). The shocked CSM and the jet material are assumed to be in an infini…

Interaction of a Supernova with a Circumstellar Disk

Austin T. McDowell, Paul C. Duffell, Daniel Kasen

Interaction between supernova (SN) ejecta and a dense circumstellar medium (CSM) can power a luminous light curve and create narrow emission lines in the spectra. While theoretical…
