Revealing Short GRB Jet Structure and Dynamics with Gravitational Wave Electromagnetic Counterparts

Gavin P. Lamb, Shiho Kobayashi

Compact object mergers are promising candidates for the progenitor system of short gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). Using gravitational wave (GW) triggers to identify a merger, any electro…

Transient Survey Rates for Orphan Afterglows from Compact Merger Jets

Gavin P Lamb, Masaomi Tanaka, Shiho Kobayashi

Orphan afterglows from short -ray bursts (GRB) are potential candidates for electromagnetic (EM) counterpart searches to gravitational wave (GW) detected neutron star or neutron…

GRB 170817A as a jet counterpart to gravitational wave trigger GW 170817

Gavin P Lamb, Shiho Kobayashi

{\it Fermi}/GBM (Gamma-ray Burst Monitor) and INTEGRAL (the International Gamma-ray Astrophysics Laboratory) reported the detection of the -ray counterpart, GRB 170817A, to the…

Optical Polarimetry of KIC 8462852 in May-August 2017

I. A Steele, C. M. Copperwheat, H. E. Jermak +2

We present optical polarimetry in the period May-August 2017 of the enigmatic "dipping" star KIC 8462852. During that period three ~1% photometric dips were reported by other obser…

Electromagnetic Counterparts to Structured Jets from Gravitational Wave Detected Mergers

Gavin P Lamb, Shiho Kobayashi

We show the peak magnitude for orphan afterglows from the jets of gravitational wave (GW) detected black-hole/neutron star - neutron star (BH/NS-NS) mergers highly depends on the j…

Extending the "Energetic Scaling of Relativistic Jets From Black Hole Systems" to Include -ray-loud X-ray Binaries

Gavin P Lamb, Shiho Kobayashi, Elena Pian

We show that the jet power and geometrically corrected -ray luminosity for the X-ray binaries (XRBs) Cygnus X-1, Cygnus X-3, and V404 Cygni, and -ray upper limits…
