Kasliwal (Caltech)\n\nreport on behalf of the iPTF (intermediate Palomar Transient Factory) and\nGROWTH (Global Relay of Observatories Watching Transients Happen)\ncollaborations\n\nWe spatially cross-matched the LIGO/Virgo G275697 trigger (90% containment\nvolume; LVC GCN 20763) with our Census of the Local Universe (CLU; Cook et\nal. in prep) galaxy catalog and found 7361 galaxies. This catalog is a\ncompilation of galaxies with existing redshifts from many sources (e.g.,\nNED, SDSS, etc) and new galaxies from a 3PI four-filter narrow-band survey\nto look for redshifted Halpha emission out to 200 Mpc with the Palomar\nOschin 48-inch telescope. Currently, the narrow-band survey is only\ncalibrated inside the footprint of SDSS. Of the 7361 galaxies in the error\nvolume, 6032 come from a compilation of known galaxies and 1329 are new,\nemission-line CLU galaxy candidates.\n\nWe list here the top 20 galaxies sorted by star formation rate (SFR) and by\nstellar mass (Mstar) for galaxies whose location on the sky and distance\nfalls in the 90% volume reported by the BAYESTAR probability sky map\n(Singer et al. 2016), where the 90% credible volume measures 3.3e6 Mpc^3.\nThe sorted SFR list contains 2 new CLU galaxies with no previous\nspectroscopic redshifts, and the sorted mass list contains 1 new CLU\ngalaxy. CLU J20203032+0734271 is an interacting triplet of galaxies, and\nCLU J08550651+1944566 may be an interacting pair.\n\n\nList of sorted SFRs:\n          name             ra      dec    distMpc Log(sfr_fuv, Msun/yr)\nLog(mstar, Msun)\n----------------------- -------- -------- ------- ---------------------\n----------------\n              II Zw 096 314.3496  17.1273  148.35   2.486\n10.78\n2MASX J10315733-1846333 157.9887 -18.7761  172.43   1.922\n11.14\n  CLU J21083429+1804593 317.1430  18.0830  171.40   1.838\n10.56\n               MRK 0704 139.6084  16.3053  125.21   1.807\n11.45\n               MRK 1239 148.0796  -1.6121   85.34   1.756\n11.63\n         ESO 567- G 025 152.9059 -21.2538  128.15   1.733\n11.04\n2MASX J20104645+0107108 302.6935   1.1197  110.63   1.639\n10.32\n               NGC 2761 136.8779  18.4341  119.85   1.575\n10.85\n         MCG -05-26-006 161.8030 -28.9211  146.22   1.573\n10.79\n              UGC 11497 298.9081   2.1819  108.47   1.512\n10.82\n              UGC 05025 141.5137  12.7343  124.85   1.507\n11.04\n2MASX J12313717-4758019 187.9048 -47.9672  119.47   1.473\n10.96\n           CGCG 447-017 310.7770  21.6341  198.10   1.466\n11.07\n         ESO 267- G 029 183.4678 -47.2737   77.79   1.452\n10.51\n  CLU J08550651+1944566 133.7770  19.7489   52.82   1.447\n8.56\n2MASX J19512506+0432574 297.8542   4.5493  121.09   1.444\n10.19\n           TOLOLO 00013 167.3347 -30.3636  177.31   1.429\n10.68\n2MASX J11143157-2935412 168.6316 -29.5948  129.19   1.428\n10.31\n2MASX J20353916+0816162 308.9133   8.2711  114.50   1.403\n10.67\n                 VV 637 150.8623  -1.5467  197.44   1.390\n10.69\n\n\nList of sorted stellar masses:\n          name             ra      dec    distMpc Log(sfr_fuv, Msun/yr)\nLog(mstar, Msun)\n----------------------- -------- -------- ------- ---------------------\n----------------\n               MRK 1239 148.0796  -1.6121   85.34   1.756\n11.63\n               MRK 0704 139.6084  16.3053  125.21   1.807\n11.45\n2MASX J10315733-1846333 157.9887 -18.7761  172.43   1.922\n11.14\n           CGCG 447-017 310.7770  21.6341  198.10   1.466\n11.07\n         MCG -03-26-030 152.8289 -17.2044  129.25   0.015\n11.05\n              UGC 05025 141.5137  12.7343  124.85   1.507\n11.04\n         ESO 567- G 025 152.9059 -21.2538  128.15   1.733\n11.04\n               NGC 2720 134.7836  11.1492  127.07  -0.271\n11.04\n              UGC 05025 141.5140  12.7344  123.28   1.496\n11.03\n2MASX J10260948-2034149 156.5394 -20.5708  175.36  -0.036\n11.03\n           CGCG 447-008 307.9770  18.4189  192.53  -0.068\n11.03\n2MASX J20235470+1341480 305.9779  13.6967  191.06   0.575\n11.02\n               NGC 2819 139.5387  16.1981  129.13  -0.277\n11.00\n         ESO 438- G 023 170.2215 -29.4031  127.39   0.430\n10.99\n2MASX J09493236-1406471 147.3848 -14.1132  179.73   0.209\n10.99\n2MASX J12313717-4758019 187.9048 -47.9672  119.47   1.473\n10.96\n              UGC 11602 309.4789  10.6313  110.68   0.355\n10.95\n  CLU J20203032+0734271 305.1260   7.5744  183.17   0.986\n10.90\n              UGC 05182 145.6040   4.2832  122.75  -0.222\n10.90\n2MASX J10370833-2242401 159.2847 -22.7112  158.88   0.763\n10.89\n\nThe SFRs are derived from GALEX all sky kron FUV magnitudes via the\nprescription of Murphy et al.
