Electromagnetic Counterparts I M. Benacquista ICE Summer School: Gravitational Wave Astronomy July 3, 2018

What is an electromagnetic counterpart? • Source of gravitational waves • Source of electromagnetic waves • Coincident in time (Events) • Mergers Today • Supernovae • Coincident in space (Continuous) • Compact Binaries • Pulsars • Statistically correlated (Long Delay) • Binary SMBH Thursday • Tidal Disruptions ICE Summer School: Gravitational Wave Astronomy � 2 July 3, 2018

・ ・ ✓ “ hree generic phases” ✓ ✓ Electromagnetic Counterparts of Supernovae especially when convection dominates over SASI. ✓ The horizon of LIGO is limited to nearby events.

• Unmodeled signal detection • Coherent analysis over network of detectors • Typical best distance is a few 100 pc • How many are there? Mukherjee et al. PRD 96 104033 (2017) ICE Summer School: Gravitational Wave Astronomy � 4 July 3, 2018

Core Collapse Supernovae • Neutrino burst coincident with gravitational wave burst • EM burst due to shock break out ~ hours/days later • Signal detection limits to only nearby events ~ 200 pc • Very rare events at this distance (1 per 1000yrs) • Unlikely to have to search for EM counterparts • Probably a good thing ICE Summer School: Gravitational Wave Astronomy � 6 July 3, 2018

Electromagnetic Counterparts of Mergers Needs: • Matter to couple to photons • Neutron star • Ejection of matter • Energy source to generate those photons • Accretion • Disk shocking • Radioactive decay (r-process) • Prompt emission • Jet breakout — γ -ray burst • Sustained afterglow • Radioactive decay • Disk opacities • Jet expansion ICE Summer School: Gravitational Wave Astronomy � 7 July 3, 2018

• Neutron rich material and heavy nuclei • Nucleus can absorb a neutron • Probability (time-scale) depends on the density of neutrons τ absorb • Nucleus can decay through β -decay • Probability (time-scale) depends on the nucleus τ decay • r-process: τ absorb < τ decay • s-process τ absorb > τ decay ICE Summer School: Gravitational Wave Astronomy � 9 July 3, 2018
