...The tantalizing prospect of finding an electromagnetic (EM) counterpart to GW events warrants follow-up, particularly in light of the rich scientific yield attained following the detection of both GW and EM signals from the binary neutron star (BNS) merger GW170817 (Abbott et al. 2017a)....

...In this instance, the sGRB afterglow was likely viewed somewhat away from the jet axis (Abbott et al. 2017b; Haggard et al. 2017; Kim et al. 2017; Lazzati et al. 2017; Lamb & Kobayashi 2018; Mandel 2018; Fong et al. 2019; Lamb et al. 2019a; Wu & MacFadyen 2019)....

...KNe and sGRBs were also confirmed to be linked to BNS mergers by the detections of GRB 170817A (Abbott et al. 2017a; Goldstein et al. 2017; Hallinan et al. 2017; Margutti et al. 2017, 2018; Savchenko et al. 2017; Troja et al. 2017, 2018b; D’Avanzo et al. 2018; Lyman et al. 2018; Mooley et al. 2018) and the associated kilonova AT2017gfo (Blanchard et al. 2017; Chornock et al. 2017; Coulter et al. 2017; Covino et al. 2017; Cowperthwaite et al. 2017; Drout et al. 2017; Evans et al. 2017; Hjorth et al. 2017; Levan et al. 2017; Nicholl et al. 2017; Pian et al. 2017; Smartt et al. 2017; Soares-Santos et al. 2017; Tanvir et al. 2017; Villar et al. 2017) alongside GW170817 (Abbott et al. 2017b)....
