Two years of non-thermal emission from the binary neutron star merger GW170817: rapid fading of the jet afterglow and first constraints on the kilonova fastest ejecta
A. Hajela, R. Margutti, K. D. Alexander +27
We present Chandra and VLA observations of GW170817 at ~521-743 days post merger, and a homogeneous analysis of the entire Chandra data set. We find that the late-time non-thermal…
The Optical Afterglow of GW170817: An Off-axis Structured Jet and Deep Constraints on a Globular Cluster Origin
Wen-fai Fong, P. K. Blanchard, K. D. Alexander +25
We present a revised and complete optical afterglow light curve of the binary neutron star merger GW170817, enabled by deep Hubble Space Telescope (HST) F606W observations at $\app…
A Reverse Shock in GRB 181201A
Tanmoy Laskar, Hendrik van Eerten, Patricia Schady +26
We present comprehensive multiwavelength radio to X-ray observations of GRB 181201A spanning from s to days after the burst, comprising the first joint AL…
Follow-up of the Neutron Star Bearing Gravitational Wave Candidate Events S190425z and S190426c with MMT and SOAR
G. Hosseinzadeh, P. S. Cowperthwaite, S. Gomez +23
On 2019 April 25.346 and 26.640 UT the LIGO and Virgo gravitational wave (GW) observatories announced the detection of the first candidate events in Observing Run 3 that contain at…
ALMA Detection of a Linearly Polarized Reverse Shock in GRB 190114C
Tanmoy Laskar, Kate D. Alexander, Ramandeep Gill +11
We present ALMA 97.5 GHz total intensity and linear polarization observations of the mm-band afterglow of GRB 190114C spanning 2.2 to 5.2 hours after the burst. We detect linear po…
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…
