TL;DR: In this article, the photometric calibration of the Swift Ultraviolet/Optical Telescope (UVOT) was performed with observations of standard stars and standard star fields that represent a wide range of spectral star types.

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.

TL;DR: In this paper, ultraviolet and x-ray observations from the Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array (NSTA) of the binary neutron star merger GW170817 were used to detect a high mass (≈0.03 solar masses) wind-driven outflow with moderate electron fraction.

TL;DR: Ultraviolet and x-ray observations of a binary neutron star merger show a hot kilonova but no jet along the line of sight, which avoids both obscuration from the heaviest elements in the orbital plane and a direct view of any ultrarelativistic, highly collimated ejecta.
