The optical afterglow of GW170817 at one year post-merger

G. P. Lamb, J. D. Lyman, A. J. Levan +9

We present observations of the optical afterglow of GRB\,170817A, made by the {\it Hubble Space Telescope}, between February and August 2018, up to one year after the neutron star…

Investigating the properties of stripped-envelope supernovae, what are the implications for their progenitors?

S. J. Prentice, C. Ashall, P. A. James +41

We present observations and analysis of 18 stripped-envelope supernovae observed during 2013 -- 2018. This sample consists of 5 H/He-rich SNe, 6 H-poor/He-rich SNe, 3 narrow lined…

Target of Opportunity Observations of Gravitational Wave Events with LSST

R. Margutti, P. Cowperthwaite, Z. Doctor +79

The discovery of the electromagnetic counterparts to the binary neutron star merger GW170817 has opened the era of GW+EM multi-messenger astronomy. Exploiting this breakthrough req…

The Rate of Short-Duration Gamma-Ray Bursts in the Local Universe

Soheb Mandhai, Nial Tanvir, Gavin Lamb +2

Following the faint gamma-ray burst, GRB 170817A, coincident with a gravitational wave-detected binary neutron star merger at Mpc, we consider the constraints on a local…

Late-time Evolution of Afterglows from Off-Axis Neutron-Star Mergers

Gavin P Lamb, Ilya Mandel, Lekshmi Resmi

Gravitational-wave detected neutron star mergers provide an opportunity to investigate short gamma-ray burst (GRB) jet afterglows without the GRB trigger. Here we show that the pos…
