36. The Multi-Messenger Astronomy Followup Ecosystem

Curtis McCully

9/16/24, 11:00 AM

Introduction

The Multi-Messenger Astrophysics (MMA) era has necessitated that we coordinate the community at an entirely new level. Many of these events (e.g., gravitational wave and neutrino sources) are not localized enough to unambiguously identify the electromagnetic counterpart. Instead, large-scale searches are necessary to localize the source to combine the information from the different...

Alerts and results from Swift-BAT GUANO data and the NITRATES analysis

In 2019 the Gamma-ray Urgent Archiver for Novel Opportunities (GUANO) was implemented, allowing for time-tagged event data for the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) to be saved on command around times of interest. This allows for more sensitive analyses to be performed on the ground. The most sensitive being, the...

Wavelengths and messengers

The Large Area Telescope (LAT), on board the NASA Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, has various properties that make it a great instrument for time-domain astronomy. These include its large field of view (> 2 steradians), its all-sky-survey mode of taking observations and its large energy range (100 MeV - >1 TeV). In this talk, I will discuss the various tools and platforms that Fermi-LAT...

Wavelengths and messengers

Multimessenger astrophysics recently provided groundbreaking results, in many cases involving transient sources. The study of this type of objects can be challenging, especially from an observational point of view. In particular, in the electromagnetic domain, the very-high-energy gamma-ray band (E>~100 GeV) can provide vital information on the sources themselves and their environment. In this...

Discovered in 2007, fast radio bursts (FRBs) are luminous, millisecond duration radio bursts that have quickly become one of the most fascinating classes of radio transients. The progenitor of FRBs remains a mystery, however, through observations like that of the FRB-like bursts detected from a galactic magnetar, SGR 1935+2154, it has been shown that collaborative efforts from multiple...

71. Investigate the impact of magnetar on the kilonova afterglow emission in short GRBs through late-time radio observations

9/17/24, 11:15 AM

Contributed talks

The coincident detection of Gravitational Wave (GW~170817) and short Gamma Ray Burst (GRB~170817A) confirmed their common origin from the coalescence of binary neutron stars (BNS). Depending on the BNS masses and equations of state, the outcome could be a black hole or a millisecond magnetar. In the presence of a magnetar, a significant portion of its rotational energy is transferred to the...
