Constraining the Maximum Mass of Neutron Stars From Multi-Messenger Observations of GW170817
Ben Margalit, Brian Metzger
We combine electromagnetic (EM) and gravitational wave (GW) information on the binary neutron star (NS) merger GW170817 in order to constrain the radii and maximum mas…

The GRB-SLSN Connection: mis-aligned magnetars, weak jet emergence, and observational signatures
Ben Margalit, Brian D. Metzger, Todd A. Thompson +2
Multiple observational lines of evidence support a connection between hydrogen-poor superluminous supernovae (SLSNe) and long duration gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). Both events require…

Millisecond Magnetar Birth Connects FRB 121102 to Superluminous Supernovae and Long Duration Gamma-ray Bursts
Brian D. Metzger, Edo Berger, Ben Margalit
Sub-arcsecond localization of the repeating fast radio burst FRB 121102 revealed its coincidence with a dwarf host galaxy and a steady (`quiescent') non-thermal radio source. We sh…
