A population of highly energetic transient events in the centres of active galaxies
E. Kankare, R. Kotak, S. Mattila +25
Recent all-sky surveys have led to the discovery of new types of transients. These include stars disrupted by the central supermassive black hole, and supernovae that are 10-100 ti…
A kilonova as the electromagnetic counterpart to a gravitational-wave source
S. J. Smartt, T. -W. Chen, A. Jerkstrand +118
Gravitational waves were discovered with the detection of binary black hole mergers and they should also be detectable from lower mass neutron star mergers. These are predicted to…
Observations of the GRB afterglow ATLAS17aeu and its possible association with GW170104
B. Stalder, J. Tonry, S. J. Smartt +26
We report the discovery and multi-wavelength data analysis of the peculiar optical transient, ATLAS17aeu. This transient was identified in the skymap of the LIGO gravitational wave…
