Journal ArticleDOI

Localization and broadband follow-up of the gravitational-wave transient GW150914

B. P. Abbott, +1622 more
TL;DR: In this article, the sky localization of the first observed compact binary merger is presented, where the authors describe the low-latency analysis of the LIGO data and present a sky localization map.
Journal ArticleDOI

SPECT3D - A Multi-Dimensional Collisional-Radiative Code for Generating Diagnostic Signatures Based on Hydrodynamics and PIC Simulation Output

TL;DR: SPECT3D as discussed by the authors is a multi-dimensional collisional-radiative code used to post-process the output from radiation-hydrodynamics (RH) and particle-in-cell (PIC) codes to generate diagnostic signatures (e.g. images, spectra) that can be compared directly with experimental measurements.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characteristic QSO Accretion Disk Temperatures from Spectroscopic Continuum Variability

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) QSO spectra taken at multiple epochs to find that the composite flux differences in the rest-frame wavelength range 1300-6000 A can be fit by a standard thermal accretion disk model in which the accretion rate has changed from one epoch to another.
Journal ArticleDOI

SUPPLEMENT: "LOCALIZATION and BROADBAND FOLLOW-UP of the GRAVITATIONAL-WAVE TRANSIENT GW150914" (2016, ApJL, 826, L13)

B. P. Abbott, +1622 more
TL;DR: Abbott et al. as mentioned in this paper compared the four probability sky maps produced for the gravitational-wave transient GW150914, and provided additional details of the EM follow-up observations that were performed in the different bands.
Journal ArticleDOI

Supplement: Localization and broadband follow-up of the gravitational-wave transient GW150914

B. P. Abbott, +1539 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors summarize past electromagnetic follow-up efforts as well as the organization and policy of the current EM followup program and compare the four probability sky maps produced for the gravitational-wave transient GW150914, and provide additional details of the EM follow up observations that were performed in the different bands.
