ALMA and GMRT constraints on the off-axis gamma-ray burst 170817A from the binary neutron star merger GW170817

Sam Kim, Steve Schulze, Lekshmi Resmi +31

Binary neutron-star mergers (BNSMs) are among the most readily detectable gravitational-wave (GW) sources with LIGO. They are also thought to produce short -ray bursts (SGRBs),…

Spectroscopic identification of r-process nucleosynthesis in a double neutron star merger

E. Pian, P. D'Avanzo, S. Benetti +81

The merger of two neutron stars is predicted to give rise to three major detectable phenomena: a short burst of gamma-rays, a gravitational wave signal, and a transient optical/nea…

The Emergence of a Lanthanide-Rich Kilonova Following the Merger of Two Neutron Stars

N. R. Tanvir, A. J. Levan, C. Gonzalez-Fernandez +51

We report the discovery and monitoring of the near-infrared counterpart (AT2017gfo) of a binary neutron-star merger event detected as a gravitational wave source by Advanced LIGO/V…

The host galaxy of the short GRB111117A at : impact on the short GRB redshift distribution and progenitor channels

J. Selsing, T. Krühler, D. Malesani +26

It is notoriously difficult to localize short -ray bursts (sGRBs) and their hosts to measure their redshifts. These measurements, however, are critical to constrain the nature o…
