TeV gamma-ray observations of the binary neutron star merger GW170817 with H.E.S.S

H. E. S. S. Collaboration, :, H. Abdalla +250

We search for high-energy gamma-ray emission from the binary neutron star merger GW170817 with the H.E.S.S. Imaging Air Cherenkov Telescopes. The observations presented here have b…

ThunderKAT: The MeerKAT Large Survey Project for Image-Plane Radio Transients

R. Fender, P. A. Woudt, R. Armstrong +59

ThunderKAT is the image-plane transients programme for MeerKAT. The goal as outlined in 2010, and still today, is to find, identify and understand high-energy astrophysical process…

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…

A polarized fast radio burst at low Galactic latitude

E. Petroff, S. Burke-Spolaor, E. F. Keane +35

We report on the discovery of a new fast radio burst, FRB 150215, with the Parkes radio telescope on 2015 February 15. The burst was detected in real time with a dispersion measure…
