Searching for Binary Black Hole Merger Emission in AGN Disks: Optical and Spectroscopic Follow-up of S240413p
P. Darc, C. R. Bom, A. Santos +7
The conditions under which binary black hole (BBH) mergers embedded in active galactic nucleus (AGN) disks produce detectable optical counterparts remain poorly constrained observa…

Search For a Counterpart to the Subsolar Mass Gravitational Wave Candidate S251112cm
Nicholas Vieira, Noah Franz, Bhagya Subrayan +49
The recent candidate gravitational-wave (GW) alert from a compact object merger involving at least one subsolar mass (SSM) object has prompted questions about their origins. S25111…

Long-Term Optical Follow Up of S231206cc: Multi-Model Constraints on BBH Merger Emission in AGN Disks
P. Darc, C. R. Bom, C. D. Kilpatrick +9
The majority of gravitational wave events detected by the LIGO, Virgo, and KAGRA Collaboration originate from binary black hole (BBH) mergers, for which no confirmed electromagneti…
