Swift/UVOT discovery of Swift J221951-484240: a UV luminous ambiguous nuclear transient
S. R. Oates, N. P. M. Kuin, M. Nicholl +57
We report the discovery of Swift J221951-484240 (hereafter: J221951), a luminous slow-evolving blue transient that was detected by the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory Ultra-violet/O…
Swift/UVOT follow-up of Gravitational Wave Alerts in the O3 era
S. R. Oates, F. E. Marshall, A. A. Breeveld +41
In this paper, we report on the observational performance of the Swift Ultra-violet/Optical Telescope (UVOT) in response to the Gravitational Wave alerts announced by the Advanced…
Swift-XRT follow-up of gravitational wave triggers during the third aLIGO/Virgo observing run
K. L. Page, P. A. Evans, A. Tohuvavohu +41
The Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory followed up 18 gravitational wave (GW) triggers from the LIGO/Virgo collaboration during the O3 observing run in 2019/2020, performing approximat…
Swift and NuSTAR observations of GW170817: detection of a blue kilonova
P. A. Evans, S. B. Cenko, J. A. Kennea +56
With the first direct detection of merging black holes in 2015, the era of gravitational wave (GW) astrophysics began. A complete picture of compact object mergers, however, requir…
Multiband variability studies and novel broadband SED modeling of Mrk 501 in 2009
M. L. Ahnen, S. Ansoldi, L. A. Antonelli +290
We present an extensive study of the BL Lac object Mrk 501 based on a data set collected during the multi-instrument campaign spanning from 2009 March 15 to 2009 August 1 which inc…
Swift follow-up of the Gravitational Wave source GW150914
P. A. Evans, J. A. Kennea, S. D. Barthelmy +22
The Advanced LIGO observatory recently reported the first direct detection of gravitational waves (GW) which triggered ALIGO on 2015 September 14. We report on observations taken w…
