First demonstration of early warning gravitational wave alerts

Ryan Magee, Deep Chatterjee, Leo P. Singer +33

Gravitational-wave observations became commonplace in Advanced LIGO-Virgo's recently concluded third observing run. 56 non-retracted candidates were identified and publicly announc…

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…

Enhancing Gravitational-Wave Science with Machine Learning

Elena Cuoco, Jade Powell, Marco Cavaglià +23

Machine learning has emerged as a popular and powerful approach for solving problems in astrophysics. We review applications of machine learning techniques for the analysis of grou…

GROWTH on S190425z: Searching thousands of square degrees to identify an optical or infrared counterpart to a binary neutron star merger with the Zwicky Transient Facility and Palomar Gattini IR

Michael W. Coughlin, Tomás Ahumada, Shreya Anand +76

The third observing run by LVC has brought the discovery of many compact binary coalescences. Following the detection of the first binary neutron star merger in this run (LIGO/Virg…

2900 square degree search for the optical counterpart of short gamma-ray burst GRB 180523B with the Zwicky Transient Facility

Michael W. Coughlin, Tomas Ahumada, S. Bradley Cenko +31

There is significant interest in the models for production of short gamma-ray bursts. Until now, the number of known short gamma-ray bursts with multi-wavelength afterglows has bee…

Toward finding gravitational-wave signals from progenitors of short hard gamma-ray bursts and orphaned afterglows

Shaon Ghosh, Sukanta Bose

With multiple observatories and missions being planned for detecting orphaned afterglows associated with gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) we emphasize the importance of developing data anal…
