Processing GOTO data with the Rubin Observatory LSST Science Pipelines I : Production of coadded frames
J. R. Mullaney, L. Makrygianni, V. Dhillon +44
The past few decades have seen the burgeoning of wide field, high cadence surveys, the most formidable of which will be the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) to be conducted b…
Machine Learning for Transient Recognition in Difference Imaging With Minimum Sampling Effort
Yik-Lun Mong, Kendall Ackley, Duncan Galloway +45
The amount of observational data produced by time-domain astronomy is exponentially in-creasing. Human inspection alone is not an effective way to identify genuine transients fromt…
Searching for Electromagnetic Counterparts to Gravitational-wave Merger Events with the Prototype Gravitational-wave Optical Transient Observer (GOTO-4)
B. P. Gompertz, R. Cutter, D. Steeghs +49
We report the results of optical follow-up observations of 29 gravitational-wave triggers during the first half of the LIGO-Virgo Collaboration (LVC) O3 run with the Gravitational-…
Observational constraints on the optical and near-infrared emission from the neutron star-black hole binary merger S190814bv
K. Ackley, L. Amati, C. Barbieri +151
On 2019 August 14, the LIGO and Virgo interferometers detected a high-significance event labelled S190814bv. Preliminary analysis of the GW data suggests that the event was likely…
A Search for Neutron Star-Black Hole Binary Mergers in the Short Gamma-Ray Burst Population
B. P. Gompertz, A. J. Levan, N. R. Tanvir
Short gamma-ray bursts (SGRBs) are now known to be the product of the merger of two compact objects. However, two possible formation channels exist: neutron star -- neutron star (N…
