LISA and the Existence of a Fast-Merging Double Neutron Star Formation Channel
Jeff J. Andrews, Katelyn Breivik, Chris Pankow +2
Using a Milky Way double neutron star (DNS) merger rate of 210 Myr, as derived by the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO), we demonstrate that the Las…
Localization of Compact Binary Sources with Second Generation Gravitational-wave Interferometer Networks
Chris Pankow, Monica Rizzo, Kaushik Rao +2
GW170817 began gravitational-wave multimessenger astronomy. However, GW170817 will not be representative of detections in the coming years -- typical gravitational-wave sources wil…
All-sky search for short gravitational-wave bursts in the second Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo run
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1186
We present the results of a search for short-duration gravitational-wave transients in the data from the second observing run of Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo. We search for gra…
Astro 2020 Science White Paper: Joint Gravitational Wave and Electromagnetic Astronomy with LIGO and LSST in the 2020's
Philip S. Cowperthwaite, Hsin-Yu Chen, Ben Margalit +4
The blossoming field of joint gravitational wave and electromagnetic (GW-EM) astronomy is one of the most promising in astronomy. The first, and only, joint GW-EM event GW170817 pr…
Multi-Messenger Astronomy with Extremely Large Telescopes
Ryan Chornock, Philip S. Cowperthwaite, Raffaella Margutti +82
The field of time-domain astrophysics has entered the era of Multi-messenger Astronomy (MMA). One key science goal for the next decade (and beyond) will be to characterize gravitat…
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…
