报告题目:Electromagnetic counterparts of gravitational wave sources

报 告 人:Bing Zhang (University of Nevada)

报告地点:蒙民伟科技南楼 S727

报告摘要:I will discuss the theoretical models of various electromagnetic (EM) counterparts of gravitational wave (GW) sources due to NS-NS, NS-BH, and BH-BH mergers, which include a short gamma-ray burst and afterglow, a kilonova/mergernova and afterglow, a plausible long-duration X-ray event, and a speculative fast radio burst. Finally, I will report the observational data of the first GW event with the detections of EM counterparts and the theoretical implications from these observations.
