Radio Follow Up of a Sub-threshold GRB in the Sky Localization Area of GW241125

Natalie Gottschlich, Alessandra Corsi, S. Bradley Cenko +5

Since the Fermi satellite's identification of a candidate -ray burst (GRB) temporally coincident with GW150914, several tentative, and often debated, associations between electr…

A Radio-quiet AGN as a candidate counterpart to neutrino event IceCube-200615A

F. McBride, N. Schettino, J. D. O'Brien +13

Follow-up observations of neutrino events have been a promising method for identifying sources of very-high-energy cosmic rays. Neutrinos are unambiguous tracers of hadronic intera…

Observational strategies for ultrahigh-energy neutrinos: the importance of deep sensitivity for detection and astronomy

Kumiko Kotera, Mainak Mukhopadhyay, Rafael Alves Batista +5

Detecting ultrahigh-energy neutrinos can take two complementary approaches with different trade-offs. 1)~Wide and shallow: aim for the largest effective volume, and to be cost-effe…

Discovery of a transient gamma-ray counterpart to FRB 131104

J. J. DeLaunay, D. B. Fox, K. Murase +7

We report our discovery in Swift satellite data of a transient gamma-ray counterpart (3.2 confidence) to the fast radio burst FRB131104, the first such counterpart to any FRB. T…

AMON Searches for Jointly-Emitting Neutrino + Gamma-Ray Transients

A. Keivani, D. B. Fox, G. Tešić +2

We present the results of archival coincidence analyses using public neutrino data from the 40-string configuration of IceCube (IC40) and contemporaneous public gamma-ray data from…

GRB 140515A at z=6.33: Constraints on the End of Reionization From a Gamma-ray Burst in a Low Hydrogen Column Density Environment

R. Chornock, E. Berger, D. B. Fox +3

We present the discovery and subsequent spectroscopy with Gemini-North of the optical afterglow of the Swift gamma-ray burst (GRB) 140515A. The spectrum exhibits a well-detected co…

Sub-PeV Neutrinos from TeV Unidentified Sources in the Galaxy

D. B. Fox, K. Kashiyama, P. Meszaros

The IceCube collaboration discovery of 28 high-energy neutrinos over the energy range 30 TeV <~ E_nu <~ 1 PeV, a 4.3-sigma excess over expected backgrounds, represents the first hi…

The Astrophysical Multimessenger Observatory Network (AMON)

M. W. E. Smith, D. B. Fox, D. F. Cowen +18

We summarize the science opportunity, design elements, current and projected partner observatories, and anticipated science returns of the Astrophysical Multimessenger Observatory…

Caltech Core-Collapse Project (CCCP) Observations of Type II Supernovae: Evidence for Three Distinct Photometric Subtypes

Iair Arcavi, Avishay Gal-Yam, S. Bradley Cenko +12

We present R-Band light curves of Type II supernovae (SNe) from the Caltech Core Collapse Project (CCCP). With the exception of interacting (Type IIn) SNe and rare events with long…

Afterglow Observations of Fermi-LAT Gamma-Ray Bursts and the Emerging Class of Hyper-Energetic Events

S. B. Cenko, D. A. Frail, F. A. Harrison +21

We present broadband (radio, optical, and X-ray) light curves and spectra of the afterglows of four long-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs 090323, 090328, 090902B, and 090926A) detec…

A glimpse of the end of the dark ages: the gamma-ray burst of 23 April 2009 at redshift 8.3

N. R. Tanvir, D. B. Fox, A. J. Levan +59

It is thought that the first generations of massive stars in the Universe were an important, and quite possibly dominant, source of the ultra-violet radiation that reionized the hy…
