The Local Origin of a Host Dispersion Measure-Stellar Mass Relation in Fast Radio Bursts

Wasundara Athukoralalage, Liam Connor, Peter K. Blanchard +1

The origin of fast radio bursts (FRBs) and the relationship to their host galaxy environments remain open questions. Using a sample of 37 FRBs with secure host associations at $z \…

Constraints on the Star-Forming Galaxy Luminosity Function From Imaging of an Unbiased and Complete Sample of Long Gamma-ray Burst Host Galaxies

Huei Sears, Ryan Chornock, Jay Strader +4

We present rest-frame UV \textit{Hubble Space Telescope} imaging of the largest and most complete sample of 23 long duration gamma-ray burst (GRB) host galaxies between redshifts 4…

The Demographics, Stellar Populations, and Star Formation Histories of Fast Radio Burst Host Galaxies: Implications for the Progenitors

Alexa C. Gordon, Wen-fai Fong, Charles D. Kilpatrick +26

We present a comprehensive catalog of observations and stellar population properties for 23 highly secure host galaxies of fast radio bursts (FRBs). Our sample comprises six repeat…

Short GRB Host Galaxies I: Photometric and Spectroscopic Catalogs, Host Associations, and Galactocentric Offsets

Wen-fai Fong, Anya E. Nugent, Yuxin Dong +25

We present a comprehensive optical and near-infrared census of the fields of 90 short gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) discovered in 2005-2021, constituting all short GRBs for which host ga…

A Precise Distance to the Host Galaxy of the Binary Neutron Star Merger GW170817 Using Surface Brightness Fluctuations

Michele Cantiello, J. B. Jensen, J. P. Blakeslee +25

The joint detection of gravitational waves and electromagnetic radiation from the binary neutron star (BNS) merger GW170817 has provided unprecedented insight into a wide range of…
