Teglon: A Pixel-Level Pipeline for Galaxy-Informed Gravitational-Wave Follow-up Planning and Efficiency Analysis

D. A. Coulter, P. Darc, C. D. Kilpatrick +4

We describe Teglon, an open-source database and analysis pipeline engineered to optimize the search for electromagnetic (EM) counterparts to gravitational wave (GW) sources. Teglon…
