论文摘要
高级重力波(GW)检测器网络已从合并紧凑的二进制文件开始{常规检测}信号。数据表明,在这些来源的相当一部分中,至少一个成分是中子星,带来了电磁(EM)辐射的可能性。到目前为止,仅针对GW170817的一个来源建立了EM和GW辐射之间的确认联系。宽带多波长数据和GW信号的联合分析产生了丰富的信息跨越领域,如喷射物理学,宇宙学和核合成。在这里,我们讨论了此类联合观察的重要性,以及目前和未来的努力,发现和研究与GW来源的更多同行。
The advanced gravitational wave (GW) detector network has started {routine detection of } signals from merging compact binaries. Data indicate that in a fair fraction of these sources, at least one component was a neutron star, bringing with it the possibility of electromagnetic (EM) radiation. So far, a confirmed link between EM and GW radiation has been established for only one source, GW170817. Joint analysis of broadband multiwavelength data and the GW signal have yielded rich information spanning fields as varied as jet physics, cosmology, and nucleosynthesis. Here, we discuss the importance of such joint observations, as well as current and near-future efforts to discover and study more EM counterparts to GW sources.
