Kilonova from post-merger ejecta as an optical and near-infrared counterpart of GW170817
Masaomi Tanaka, Yousuke Utsumi, Paolo A. Mazzali +42
Recent detection of gravitational waves from a neutron star (NS) merger event GW170817 and identification of an electromagnetic counterpart provide a unique opportunity to study th…
J-GEM observations of an electromagnetic counterpart to the neutron star merger GW170817
Yousuke Utsumi, Masaomi Tanaka, Nozomu Tominaga +57
The first detected gravitational wave from a neutron star merger was GW170817. In this study, we present J-GEM follow-up observations of SSS17a, an electromagnetic counterpart of G…
Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam Survey for An Optical Counterpart of GW170817
Nozomu Tominaga, Masaomi Tanaka, Tomoki Morokuma +31
We perform a -band survey for an optical counterpart of a binary neutron star coalescence GW170817 with Subaru/Hyper Suprime-Cam. Our untargeted transient search covers d…
A Challenge to Identify an Optical Counterpart of the Gravitational Wave Event GW151226 with Hyper Suprime-Cam
Yousuke Utsumi, Nozomu Tominaga, Masaomi Tanaka +15
We present the results of the detailed analysis of an optical imaging survey conducted using the Subaru / Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC), which aims to identify an optical counterpart to…
Broad-Lined Supernova 2016coi with Helium Envelope
Masayuki Yamanaka, Tatsuya Nakaoka, Masaomi Tanaka +38
We present the early-phase spectra and the light curves of the broad-lined supernova (SN) 2016coi from to days after the estimated explosion date. This SN was initially…
J-GEM Follow-Up Observations of The Gravitational Wave Source GW151226
Michitoshi Yoshida, Yousuke Utsumi, Nozomu Tominaga +35
We report the results of optical--infrared follow-up observations of the gravitational wave (GW) event GW151226 detected by the Advanced LIGO in the framework of J-GEM (Japanese co…
