Multimessenger Constraints on the Central Engine in SN 2023ixf: Neutron Star or Black Hole?
Maryam Aghaei Abchouyeh, Maurice H. P. M. van Putten, Massimo Della Valle
The physical trigger of core-collapse supernova (CC-SNe) is a central theme in modern surveys of the transient Universe. A multi-messenger approach may provide a unique window to C…
Observational prospects of double neutrons star mergers and their multi-messenger afterglows: LIGO discovery power, event rates and diversity
Maryam A. Abchouyeh, Maurice H. P. M. van Putten, Lorenzo Amati
The double neutron star (DNS) merger event GW170817 signifies the first multimessenger (MM) event with electromagnetic-gravitational (EM-GW) observations. LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA observat…
Central engine of GRB170817A: Neutron star versus Kerr black hole based on multimessenger calorimetry and event timing
Maurice H. P. M. van Putten, Massimo Della Valle
The central engine of GRB170817A post-merger to GW170817 is probed by GW-calorimetry and event timing, applied to a post-merger descending chirp which can potentially break the deg…
Prospects for multi-messenger extended emission from core-collapse supernovae in the Local Universe
Maurice H. P. M. van Putten, Amir Levinson, Filippo Frontera +3
Multi-messenger emissions from SN1987A and GW170817/GRB170817A suggest a Universe rife with multi-messenger transients associated with black holes and neutron stars. For LIGO-Virgo…
On extreme transient events from rotating black holes and their gravitational wave emission
Maurice H. P. M. van Putten, Massimo Della Valle
The super-luminous object ASASSN-15lh (SN2015L) is an extreme event with a total energy erg in black body radiation on par with its kinetic energy…
Proposed searches for candidate sources of gravitational waves in a nearby core-collapse supernova survey
Jeon-Eun Heo, Soyoung Yoon, Dae-Sub Lee +4
Gravitational wave bursts in the formation of neutron stars and black holes in energetic core-collapse supernovae (CC-SNe) are of potential interest to LIGO-Virgo and KAGRA. Events…
Near-extremal black holes as initial conditions of long GRB-supernovae and probes of their gravitational wave emission
Maurice H. P. M. van Putten
Long gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) associated with supernovae and short GRBs with Extended Emission (SGRBEE) from mergers are probably powered by black holes as a common inner engine, as…
Broadband extended emission in gravitational waves from core-collapse supernovae
Amir Levinson, Maurice H. P. M. van Putten, Guy Pick
Black holes in core-collapse of massive stars are expected to surge in mass and angular momentum by hyper-accretion immediately following their formation. We here describe a genera…
Extreme luminosities in ejecta produced by intermittent outflows around rotating black holes
Maurice H. P. M. van Putten
Extreme sources in the Transient Universe show evidence of relativistic outflows from intermittent inner engines, such as cosmological gamma-ray bursts. They probably derive from r…
Broad band turbulent spectra in gamma-ray burst light curves
Maurice H. P. M. van Putten, Cristiano Guidorzi, Filippo Frontera
Broad band power density spectra offer a window to understanding turbulent behavior in the emission mechanism and, at the highest frequencies, in the putative inner engines powerin…
On the origin of short GRBs with Extended Emission and long GRBs without associated SN
Maurice H. P. M. van Putten, Gyeong Min Lee, Massimo Della Valle +2
The Burst and Transient Source Experiment (BATSE) classifies cosmological gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) into short (less than 2 s) and long (over 2 s) events, commonly attributed to merg…
Long GRBs and massive stellar explosions from frame dragging around rotating black holes
Maurice H. P. M. van Putten
The most energetic GRB-supernovae probably derive from rotating stellar mass black holes. Based on BeppoSax data, we identify a mechanism for exploding a remnant stellar envelope b…
Discovery of black hole spindown in the BATSE catalogue of long GRBs
Maurice H. P. M. van Putten
The BATSE catalogue is searched for evidence of spindown of black holes or proto-neutron stars (PNS) by extracting normalized light curves (nLC). The nLC are obtained by matched fi…
Electromagnetic priors for black hole spindown in searches for gravitational-waves from supernovae and long GRBs
Maurice H. P. M. van Putten, Massimo Della Valle, Amir Levinson
Some core-collapse supernovae appear to be hyper-energetic, and a subset of these are aspherical and associated with long GRBs. We use observations of electromagnetic emission from…
Multi-messenger emissions from Kerr black holes
Maurice H. P. M. van Putten
Kerr black holes are energetically similar to spinning tops accompanied by frame dragging in the surrounding spacetime. Frame dragging is shown herein to be a universal causal agen…
