The Next Generation Global Gravitational Wave Observatory: The Science Book

Vicky Kalogera, B. S. Sathyaprakash, Matthew Bailes +88

The next generation of ground-based gravitational-wave detectors will observe coalescences of black holes and neutron stars throughout the cosmos, thousands of them with exceptiona…

Multimessenger Universe with Gravitational Waves from Binaries

B. S. Sathyaprakash, Matthew Bailes, Mansi M. Kasliwal +9

Future GW detector networks and EM observatories will provide a unique opportunity to observe the most luminous events in the Universe involving matter in extreme environs. They wi…

Evidence for Type Ia Supernova Diversity from Ultraviolet Observations with the Hubble Space Telescope

Xiaofeng Wang, Lifan Wang, Alexei V. Filippenko +93

We present ultraviolet (UV) spectroscopy and photometry of four Type Ia supernovae (SNe 2004dt, 2004ef, 2005M, and 2005cf) obtained with the UV prism of the Advanced Camera for Sur…

Swift 1644+57: The Longest Gamma-ray Burst?

Eliot Quataert, Dan Kasen

Swift recently discovered an unusual gamma-ray and x-ray transient (Sw 1644+57) that was initially identified as a long-duration gamma-ray burst (GRB). However, the ~ 10 keV x-ray…

Electromagnetic Transients Powered by Nuclear Decay in the Tidal Tails of Coalescing Compact Binaries

Luke F. Roberts, Dan Kasen, William H. Lee +1

The possibility that long tidal tails formed during compact object mergers may power optical transients through the decay of freshly synthesized r-process material is investigated.…
