Liverpool Telescope follow-up of candidate electromagnetic counterparts during the first run of Advanced LIGO
C. M. Copperwheat, I. A. Steele, A. S. Piascik +17
The first direct detection of gravitational waves was made in late 2015 with the Advanced LIGO detectors. By prior arrangement, a worldwide collaboration of electromagnetic follow-…
A Reverse Shock in GRB 160509A
Tanmoy Laskar, Kate D. Alexander, Edo Berger +12
We present the second multi-frequency radio detection of a reverse shock in a -ray burst. By combining our extensive radio observations of the Fermi-LAT GRB 160509A at $z = 1.17…
Are LGRBs biased tracers of star formation? Clues from the host galaxies of the Swift/BAT6 complete sample of bright LGRBs. II: star formation rates and metallicities at z < 1
J. Japelj, S. D. Vergani, R. Salvaterra +21
Long gamma-ray bursts (LGRBs) are associated with the deaths of massive stars and could thus be a potentially powerful tool to trace cosmic star formation. However, especially at l…
