Can we constrain the binary neutron star merger time from kilonova light curves?
Noah Jamsin, Marion Pillas, Marko Ristić +18
The joint observation of gravitational waves (GWs) from a binary neutron star (BNS) merger (GW170817), together with a short Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB 170817A) and a kilonova (KN, AT201…
Colour evolution in the radio afterglow of GRB 241025A
S. Giarratana, O. S. Salafia, L. Nava +10
We present the observing campaign of the afterglow of GRB241025A, a gamma-ray burst (GRB) whose prompt emission has been simultaneously detected by Swift, Einstein Probe, Fermi/GBM…
GRB 241030A: a bright afterglow challenging forward shock emission
J. -G. Ducoin, C. Pellouin, V. Aivazyan +97
Gamma-Ray Burst GRB 241030A (z = 1.411) exhibited a bright afterglow (similar to GRB 221009A), detected across gamma-ray, X-ray, UV, and optical bands, providing a probe of GRB aft…
Multi-epoch afterglow rebrightenings in GRB 250129A: Evidence for successive shock interactions
D. Akl, S. Antier, H. Koehn +105
Most long gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) exhibit afterglows broadly consistent with external forward-shock emission, typically described by smooth broken power-law decays in the multiband…
Minutes-long soft X-ray prompt emission from a compact object merger
An Li, Chen-Wei Wang, Niccolò Passaleva +75
Compact object mergers are multi-messenger sources and known progenitors of some gamma-ray bursts, bright flashes of high-energy radiation powered by a central engine, either an ac…
ZTF25abjmnps (AT2025ulz) and S250818k: A Candidate Superkilonova from a Sub-threshold Sub-Solar Gravitational Wave Trigger
Mansi M. Kasliwal, Tomas Ahumada, Robert Stein +61
On August 18, 2025, the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA collaboration reported gravitational waves from a sub-threshold binary neutron star merger. If astrophysical, this event would have a surpr…
AT2025ulz and S250818k: Investigating early time observations of a subsolar mass gravitational-wave binary neutron star merger candidate
Xander J. Hall, Malte Busmann, Hauke Koehn +32
Over the past LIGO--Virgo--KAGRA (LVK) observing runs, it has become increasingly clear that identifying the next electromagnetic counterparts to gravitational-wave (GW) neutron st…
Kilonova modelling and parameter inference: Understanding uncertainties and evaluating compatibility between observations and models
Thomas Hussenot-Desenonges, Marion Pillas, Sarah Antier +2
In the study of optical transients, parameter inference is the process of extracting physical information, i.e. constraints on the source's characteristics, by comparing the observ…
Contribution to the 2025 Gravitation session of the 59th Rencontres de Moriond: Limits on the Ejecta Mass During the Search for Kilonovae Associated with Neutron Star-Black Hole Mergers
Marion Pillas
This study evaluates ejecta properties from multi-messenger observations to understand the absence of detectable KN associated to the four NSBH candidates from May 2023 to July 202…
Limits on the Ejecta Mass During the Search for Kilonovae Associated with Neutron Star-Black Hole Mergers: A case study of S230518h, GW230529, S230627c and the Low-Significance Candidate S240422ed
M. Pillas, S. Antier, K. Ackley +78
Neutron star-black hole (NSBH) mergers, detectable via their gravitational-wave (GW) emission, are expected to produce kilonovae (KNe). Four NSBH candidates have been identified an…
