Search for gravitational-wave signals associated with gamma-ray bursts during the second observing run of Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo

B. P. Abbott, +1195 more
TL;DR: The results of targeted searches for gravitational-wave transients associated with gamma-ray bursts during the second observing run of Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo, which took place from 2016 November to 2017 August, were presented in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI

GROWTH on S190426c. II. Real-Time Search for a Counterpart to the Probable Neutron Star-Black Hole Merger using an Automated Difference Imaging Pipeline for DECam

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the observations and automated data movement, data reduction, candidate discovery, and vetting pipeline of their target-of-opportunity DECam observations of S190426c, the first possible neutron star--black hole merger detected via gravitational waves.
Journal ArticleDOI

A strategy for LSST to unveil a population of kilonovae without gravitational-wave triggers

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a cadence optimization strategy to unveil a large population of kilonovae using optical imaging alone, generated during binary neutron star and potentially neutron star-black hole mergers and are electromagnetic counterparts to gravitational-wave signals detectable in nearby events with Advanced LIGO, Advanced Virgo, and other interferometers that will come online in the near future.
