A lanthanide-rich kilonova in the aftermath of a long gamma-ray burst
Yu-Han Yang, Eleonora Troja, Brendan O'Connor +24
Observationally, Kilonovae are astrophysical transients powered by the radioactive decay of nuclei heavier than iron, synthesized in the merger of two compact objects. Over the fir…
GRB 211227A as a peculiar long gamma-ray burst from compact star merger
Hou-Jun Lü, Hao-Yu Yuan, Ting-Feng Yi +16
Long-duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) associated with supernovae (SNe) are believed to originate from massive star core-collapse events, whereas short-duration GRBs that are relate…
Optical follow-up of the neutron star-black hole mergers S200105ae and S200115j
Shreya Anand, Michael W. Coughlin, Mansi M. Kasliwal +46
LIGO and Virgo's third observing run (O3) revealed the first neutron star-black hole (NSBH) merger candidates in gravitational waves. These events are predicted to synthesize r-pro…
10.4m GTC observations of the nearby VHE-detected GRB 190829A/SN 2019oyw
Y. -D. Hu, A. J. Castro-Tirado, A. Kumar +15
Aims. GRB 190829A (z = 0.0785), detected by Fermi and Swift with two emission episodes separated by a quiescent gap of ~40 s, was also observed by the H.E.S.S. telescopes at Very-H…
Kilonova Luminosity Function Constraints based on Zwicky Transient Facility Searches for 13 Neutron Star Mergers
Mansi M. Kasliwal, Shreya Anand, Tomas Ahumada +100
We present a systematic search for optical counterparts to 13 gravitational wave (GW) triggers involving at least one neutron star during LIGO/Virgo's third observing run. We searc…
GROWTH on S190814bv: Deep Synoptic Limits on the Optical/Near-Infrared Counterpart to a Neutron Star-Black Hole Merger
Igor Andreoni, Daniel A. Goldstein, Mansi M. Kasliwal +49
On 2019 August 14, the Advanced LIGO and Virgo interferometers detected the high-significance gravitational wave (GW) signal S190814bv. The GW data indicated that the event resulte…
The afterglow and kilonova of the short GRB 160821B
E. Troja, A. J. Castro-Tirado, J. Becerra Gonzalez +22
GRB 160821B is a short duration gamma-ray burst (GRB) detected and localized by the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory in the outskirts of a spiral galaxy at z=0.1613, at a projected p…
Unveiling the enigma of ATLAS17aeu
A. Melandri, A. Rossi, S. Benetti +42
Aim. The unusual transient ATLAS17aeu was serendipitously detected within the sky localisation of the gravitational wave trigger GW170104. The importance of a possible association…
Internal Energy Dissipation of Gamma-Ray Bursts Observed with Swift: Precursors, Prompt Gamma-rays, Extended emission and Late X-ray Flares
You-Dong Hu, En-Wei Liang, Shao-Qiang Xi +4
We jointly analyze the gamma-ray burst (GRB) data observed with BAT and XRT on board the Swift mission to present a global view on the internal energy dissipation processes in GRBs…
GRB 121027A: long-lasting, energetic X-ray flares and clues to radiation mechanism and progenitor star
Fang-kun Peng, You-Dong Hu, Shao-Qiang Xi +4
GRB 121027A is un-usual with its extremely long-lasting, energetic X-ray flares. The total energy release in X-ray flares is about one order of magnitude higher than prompt gamma-r…
