A Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor Search for Electromagnetic Signals Coincident with Gravitational-Wave Candidates in Advanced LIGO's First Observing Run

ray Burst Monitor Team, The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration +1160

We present a search for prompt gamma-ray counterparts to compact binary coalescence gravitational wave (GW) candidates from Advanced LIGO's first observing run (O1). As demonstrate…

The Scattering and Intrinsic Structure of Sagittarius A* at Radio Wavelengths

Michael D. Johnson, Ramesh Narayan, Dimitrios Psaltis +12

Radio images of the Galactic Center supermassive black hole, Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*), are dominated by interstellar scattering. Previous studies of Sgr A* have adopted an anisotrop…

Analysis of Sub-threshold Short Gamma-ray Bursts in Fermi GBM Data

D. Kocevski, E. Burns, A. Goldstein +11

The Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) is currently the most prolific detector of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs). Recently the detection rate of short GRBs (SGRBs) has been dramatically…

Detection of intrinsic source structure at ~3 Schwarzschild radii with Millimeter-VLBI observations of SAGITTARIUS A*

Ru-Sen Lu, Thomas P. Krichbaum, Alan L. Roy +53

We report results from very long baseline interferometric (VLBI) observations of the supermassive black hole in the Galactic center, Sgr A*, at 1.3 mm (230 GHz). The observations w…

A Model for Anisotropic Interstellar Scattering and its Application to Sgr A*

Dimitrios Psaltis, Michael Johnson, Ramesh Narayan +3

Scattering in the ionized interstellar medium is commonly observed to be anisotropic, with theories of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence explaining the anisotropy through a pref…

Interferometric Imaging Directly with Closure Phases and Closure Amplitudes

Andrew A. Chael, Michael D. Johnson, Katherine L. Bouman +3

Interferometric imaging now achieves angular resolutions as fine as 10 microarcsec, probing scales that are inaccessible to single telescopes. Traditional synthesis imaging methods…
