Detecting electromagnetic counterparts to LIGO/Virgo/KAGRA gravitational wave events with DECam: Neutron Star Mergers
Keerthi Kunnumkai, Antonella Palmese, Amanda M Farah +7
With GW170817 being the only multimessenger gravitational wave (GW) event with an associated kilonova detected so far, there exists a pressing need for realistic estimation of the…
Data-driven approach for modeling the temporal and spectral evolution of kilonova systematic uncertainties
Sahil Jhawar, Thibeau Wouters, Peter T. H. Pang +3
Kilonovae, possible electromagnetic counterparts to neutron star mergers, provide important information about high-energy transient phenomena and, in principle, also allow us to ob…
Multi-physics framework for fast modeling of gamma-ray burst afterglows
Vsevolod Nedora, Ludovica Crosato Menegazzi, Enrico Peretti +2
In this paper, we present PyBlastAfterglow, a modular C++ code with a Python interface to model light curves and sky maps of gamma-ray burst afterglows. The code is open-source, mo…
Kilonova emission from GW230529 and mass gap neutron star-black hole mergers
Keerthi Kunnumkai, Antonella Palmese, Mattia Bulla +3
The detection of the gravitational wave event GW230529, presumably a neutron star-black hole (NSBH) merger, by the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA (LVK) Collaboration marks an exciting discovery…
Probe and Prejudice: Classification of compact objects and model comparison using EOS knowledge
Hauke Koehn, Thibeau Wouters, Henrik Rose +4
Nuclear theory and experiments, alongside astrophysical observations, constrain the equation of state (EOS) of supranuclear-dense matter. Conversely, knowledge of the EOS allows an…
Impact of gravitational waveform model systematics on the measurement of the Hubble constant
Nina Kunert, Jonathan Gair, Peter T. H. Pang +1
Matching gravitational-wave observations of binary neutron stars with theoretical model predictions reveals important information about the sources, such as the masses and the dist…
An Online Framework for Fitting Fast Transient Lightcurves
Tyler Barna, Brandon Reed, Igor Andreoni +7
The identification of extragalactic fast optical transients (eFOTs) as potential multi-messenger sources is one of the main challenges in time-domain astronomy. However, recent dev…
Robust parameter estimation within minutes on gravitational wave signals from binary neutron star inspirals
Thibeau Wouters, Peter T. H. Pang, Tim Dietrich +1
The gravitational waves emitted by binary neutron star inspirals contain information on nuclear matter above saturation density. However, extracting this information and conducting…
