A DESGW Search for the Electromagnetic Counterpart to the LIGO/Virgo Gravitational Wave Binary Neutron Star Merger Candidate S190510g
DES Collaboration, A. Garcia, R. Morgan +87
We present the results from a search for the electromagnetic counterpart of the LIGO/Virgo event S190510g using the Dark Energy Camera (DECam). S190510g is a binary neutron star (B…
Ground-Based Gravitational-Wave Astronomy in Australia: 2019 White Paper
Matthew Bailes, David McClelland, Eric Thrane +18
The past four years have seen a scientific revolution through the birth of a new field: gravitational-wave astronomy. The first detection of gravitational waves---recognised by the…
ASTRO2020 White Paper: JWST: Probing the Epoch of Reionization with a Wide Field Time-Domain Survey
L. Wang, J. Mould, D. Baade +29
A major scientific goal of JWST is to probe the epoch of re-ionization of the Universe at z above 6, and up to 20 and beyond. At these redshifts, galaxies are just beginning to for…
Gravity and Light: Combining Gravitational Wave and Electromagnetic Observations in the 2020s
R. J. Foley, K. D. Alexander, I. Andreoni +110
As of today, we have directly detected exactly one source in both gravitational waves (GWs) and electromagnetic (EM) radiation, the binary neutron star merger GW170817, its associa…
Probing the extragalactic fast transient sky at minute timescales with DECam
Igor Andreoni, Jeffrey Cooke, Sara Webb +22
Searches for optical transients are usually performed with a cadence of days to weeks, optimised for supernova discovery. The optical fast transient sky is still largely unexplored…
The Deeper Wider Faster program: chasing the fastest bursts in the Universe
Igor Andreoni, Jeff Cooke
We present the Deeper Wider Faster (DWF) program that coordinates more than 30 multi-wavelength and multi-messenger facilities worldwide and in space to detect and study fast trans…
