P. Abbott et al. * (LIGO Scientific Collaboration and Virgo Collaboration) (Received 26 September 2017; revised manuscript received 2 October 2017; published 16 October 2017) On August 17, 2017 at 12 ∶ 41:04 UTC the Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo gravitational-wave detectors made their first observation of a binary neutron star inspiral. The signal, GW170817, was detected with a combined signal-to-noise ratio of 32.4 and a false-alarm-rate estimate of less than one per 8 . 0 × 10 4 years. We infer the component masses of the binary to be between 0.86 and 2 . 26 M ⊙ , in agreement with masses of known neutron stars. Restricting the component spins to the range inferred in binary neutron stars, we find the component masses to be in the range 1 . 17 – 1 . 60 M ⊙ , with the total mass of − 0 . 01 M ⊙ . The source was localized within a sky region of 28 deg 2 (90% probability) and the system 2 . 74 þ 0 . 04 had a luminosity distance of 40 þ 8 − 14 Mpc, the closest and most precisely localized gravitational-wave signal yet. The association with the γ -ray burst GRB 170817A, detected by Fermi-GBM 1.7 s after the coalescence, corroborates the hypothesis of a neutron star merger and provides the first direct evidence of a link between these mergers and short γ -ray bursts. Subsequent identification of transient counterparts across the electromagnetic spectrum in the same location further supports the interpretation of this event as a neutron star merger. This unprecedented joint gravitational and electromagnetic observation provides insight into astrophysics, dense matter, gravitation, and cosmology.

Problems of High-Energy Physics (NAL Design Report, January 1968) We would like to have answers to many questions.
