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…
Illuminating Gravitational Waves: A Concordant Picture of Photons from a Neutron Star Merger
M. M. Kasliwal, E. Nakar, L. P. Singer +78
Merging neutron stars offer an exquisite laboratory for simultaneously studying strong-field gravity and matter in extreme environments. We establish the physical association of an…
Real-Time Recovery Efficiencies and Performance of the Palomar Transient Factory's Transient Discovery Pipeline
C. Frohmaier, M. Sullivan, P. E. Nugent +2
We present the transient source detection efficiencies of the Palomar Transient Factory (PTF), parameterizing the number of transients that PTF found, versus the number of similar…
