Journal ArticleDOI

The zwicky transient facility: System overview, performance, and first results

Eric C. Bellm, +121 more
TL;DR: The Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) as mentioned in this paper is a new optical time-domain survey that uses the Palomar 48 inch Schmidt telescope, which provides a 47 deg^2 field of view and 8 s readout time, yielding more than an order of magnitude improvement in survey speed relative to its predecessor survey.
Journal ArticleDOI

Illuminating gravitational waves: A concordant picture of photons from a neutron star merger

Mansi M. Kasliwal, +94 more
- 22 Dec 2017 - 
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that merging neutron stars are a long-sought production site forging heavy elements by r-process nucleosynthesis, which is dissimilar to classical short gamma-ray bursts with ultrarelativistic jets.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Zwicky Transient Facility: Science Objectives

Matthew J. Graham, +116 more
TL;DR: The Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) as discussed by the authors is a new time domain survey employing a dedicated camera on the Palomar 48-inch Schmidt telescope with a 47 deg$^2$ field of view and 8 second readout time.
Journal ArticleDOI

A radio counterpart to a neutron star merger

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported the detection of a counterpart radio source that appears 16 days after the GW170817 binary neutron star merger event, allowing them to diagnose the energetics and environment of the merger.
Journal ArticleDOI

Illuminating Gravitational Waves: A Concordant Picture of Photons from a Neutron Star Merger

Mansi M. Kasliwal, +94 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors established the physical association of an electromagnetic counterpart EM170817 to gravitational waves (GW 170817) detected from merging neutron stars by synthesizing a panchromatic dataset.
