LIGO/Virgo S190510g

The IceCube Collaboration (http://icecube.wisc.edu/) reports:

IceCube has performed a search for track-like muon neutrino events
consistent with the sky localization of S190510g-1-Preliminary in a time range of 1000
seconds centered on the alert event time (2019-05-10 02:51:19.292 UTC to 2019-05-10 03:07:59.292 UTC)
during which IceCube was collecting good quality data.
No track-like events are found in spatial coincidence with the 90% spatial containment of S190510g calculated from the map
circulated in the preliminary notice. 

IceCube's sensitivity to point sources within the location spanned by the 90% spatial containment of S190510g ranges from
0.029 to 0.806 GeV cm^-2 in a 1000 second time window.

The IceCube Neutrino Observatory is a cubic-kilometer neutrino detector operating at the geographic South Pole, Antarctica.

P. Veres (UAH)
reports on behalf of the Fermi-GBM Team and the GBM+LIGO/Virgo Working
Group:


At the time of S190510g, Fermi was passing through the South Atlantic
Anomaly therefore the GBM detectors were disabled.

We note that the Fermi-GBM trigger (190510120 / 579149538) that occurred
about 7 minutes prior to the LVC trigger is a long gamma-ray burst that is
unassociated with S190510g based on the preliminary bayestar map.

The HAWC Collaboration (https://www.hawc-observatory.org) reports:
The HAWC Collaboration performed a follow-up of the gravitational wave
trigger S190510g. At the time of the trigger the HAWC
local zenith was oriented towards (RA, Dec) = (175.0 deg, 19.1 deg).
25% of the GW candidate sky location probability fell within our
observable field of view (0-45 deg zenith angle).

We performed a search for a short timescale emission using 6 sliding
time windows (dt = 0.3s, 1s, 3s, 10s, 30s and  100s), shifted forward
in time by 20% of their width. We searched the 95% probability
containment area in a timescale-dependent time period, from t0-5dt to
t0+10dt, where t0 is the time of the GW trigger.

No significant gamma-ray detection above the background was observed.

The sensitivity of this analysis is greatly dependent on zenith angle,
ranging from 15.3 deg to 45 deg for the area searched in this
analysis. The 5sigma detection sensitivity to a 1s (100s) burst in the
80-800GeV energy range goes from 1.2e-06 erg/cm^2 to 1.1e-04 erg/cm^2
(6.4e-06 erg/cm^2 to 5.0e-04 erg/cm^2), depending on the zenith
angle.

HAWC is a TeV gamma ray water Cherenkov array located in the state of
Puebla, Mexico. It is sensitive to the energy range ~0.1-100TeV, and
monitors 2/3 of the sky every day with an instantaneous field-of-view
of ~2 sr.

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration and the Virgo Collaboration report:


We identified the compact binary merger candidate S190510g during

real-time processing of data from LIGO Hanford Observatory (H1), LIGO

Livingston Observatory (L1), and Virgo Observatory (V1) at 2019-05-10

02:59:39.292 UTC (GPS time: 1241492397.292). The candidate was found

by the GstLAL [1] analysis pipeline.


S190510g is an event of interest because its false alarm rate, as

determined by the online analysis, is 8.4e-10 Hz, or about one in 37

years. The event's properties can be found at this URL:


https://gracedb.ligo.org/superevents/S190510g


The classification of the GW signal, in order of descending

probability, is BNS (98%), Terrestrial (2%), NSBH (<1%), BBH (<1%), or

MassGap (<1%).


Assuming the candidate is astrophysical in origin, there is strong

evidence for the lighter compact object having a mass < 3 solar masses

(HasNS: >99%). Using the masses and spins inferred from the signal,

there is strong evidence for matter outside the final compact object

(HasRemnant: >99%).


One skymap is available at this time and can be retrieved from the

GraceDB event page:

* bayestar.fits.gz, an updated localization generated by BAYESTAR

[2], distributed via GCN notice about an hour after the candidate


For the bayestar.fits.gz skymap, the 90% credible region is 3462 deg2.

Marginalized over the whole sky, the a posteriori luminosity distance

estimate is 269 +/- 108 Mpc (a posteriori mean +/- standard

deviation).

Using on-line data from the ANTARES detector, we have performed a follow-up analysis of the recently reported LIGO/Virgo S190510g event using the 90% contour of the initial bayestar probability map provided by the GW interferometers (GCN#24442
Loading...
 
 ). The ANTARES visibility at the time of the alert, together with the 50% and 90% contours of the probability map  are shown in https://www.cppm.in2p3.fr/~dornic/events_runo3/S190510g.png <https://www.cppm.in2p3.fr/~dornic/events_runo3/S190510g.png>. Considering the location probability provided by the LIGO/Virgo collaborations, there is a 58.7% chance that the GW emitter was in the ANTARES **upgoing** field of view at the time of the alert. 

No up-going muon neutrino candidate events were recorded in the ANTARES sky during a +/- 500s time-window centered on the time (2019-05-10 02:59:39 UT) and in the 90% contour of the S190510g event. The expected number of atmospheric background events in the region visible by ANTARES is 3.1e-4 in the +/- 500s time window. An extended search during +/- 1 hour gives no up-going muon neutrino coincidence. The expected number of atmospheric background events in the region visible by ANTARES is 2.2e-3 in this larger time window.

ANTARES is the largest undersea neutrino detector, installed in the Mediterranean Sea, and it is primarily sensitive to neutrinos in the TeV-PeV  energy range. At 10 TeV, the median angular resolution for muon neutrinos is about 0.5 degrees. In the range 1-100 TeV ANTARES has a competitive sensitivity to this position in the sky.

At the trigger time of S190510g, the high-voltage of MAXI/GSC was off,
and it was turned on at T0+358 sec (=T0+6.0 min).
The first one-orbit (92 min) scan observation with GSC after the event
covered 91%
of the 90% credible region of the bayestar skymap from 03:05:37 to
04:15:54 UTC (T0+358 to T0+4575 sec).

No significant new source was found in the region in the one-orbit

Mazzarella (Caltech/IPAC), and Marion Schmitz (Caltech/IPAC)

On behalf of the Global Relay of Observatories Watching Transients Happen (GROWTH) collaboration and the NASA/IPAC Extragalactic Database (NED) Team.

We spatially cross-matched the LIGO/Virgo S190510g trigger sky localization (90% containment volume) with the Census of the Local Universe (CLU; Cook et al. 2017; arxiv:1710.05016) galaxy catalog and found 8044 galaxies within the volume. The CLU catalog is a compilation of galaxies with existing redshifts from many sources (e.g., NED, SDSS, etc) and new galaxies from a 3PI narrow-band survey to look for redshifted Halpha emission out to 200 Mpc with the Palomar Oschin 48-inch telescope (Cook et al. 2017; arxiv:1710.05016). We list here the top 20 galaxies sorted by stellar mass (Mstar) for galaxies whose location on the sky and distance falls in the 90% volume reported by the BAYESTAR probability sky map (Singer et al. 2016). We also list the dust-corrected star formation rates (SFRs) for galaxies with GALEX FUV detections and a 'nan' for those with no detection.

For an extended list of galaxies in the 90% volume go to the NED Gravitational Wave Followup service at https://ned.ipac.caltech.edu/uri/NED::GWF/. This service provides downloadable galaxy lists and visualizations for candidate host galaxies. For each GW alert, these products are automatically generated and made available within minutes to expedite efficient electromagnetic followup observations. The NED top 20 list is sorted by 2MASS absolute K-band magnitude, but users can sort the entire list on a variety of other criteria (probability density, UV magnitudes, etc) after download.

We report the search results in the BAT data within T0 +/- 100 s of the
LVC event S190510g (LIGO/VIRGO Collaboration GCN Circ. 24442
Loading...
 
 ),
where T0 is the LVC trigger time (2019-05-10T02:59:39.292 UTC).

The center of the BAT FOV at T0 is
RA = 288.846 deg,
DEC = 10.936 deg,
ROLL = 58.998 deg.
The BAT Field of View (>10% partial coding) covers 0.95% of the integrated
LVC localization probability, and 0.00% of the galaxy convolved
probability (Evans et al. 2016).

Within T0 +/- 100 s, no significant detections (signal-to-noise ratio
>~ 5 sigma) are found in the BAT raw light curves with time bins of 64 ms,
1 s, and 1.6 s. Assuming an on-axis (100% coded) short GRB with a typical
spectrum in the BAT energy range (i.e., a simple power-law model with a
power-law index of -1.32, Lien & Sakamoto et al. 2016), the 5-sigma upper
limit in the 1-s binned light curve corresponds to a flux upper limit
(15-350 keV) of ~ 1.57 x 10^-7 erg/s/cm^2.

No event data are available at this time.

BAT retains decreased, but significant, sensitivity to rate increases for
gamma-ray events outside of its FOV. About 24.12% of the integrated LVC
localization probability was outside of the BAT FOV but above the
Earth's limb from Swift's location, and the corresponding flux upper limits
for this region are within roughly an order of magnitude higher than those
within the FOV.

The results of the BAT analysis are available at
https://swift.gsfc.nasa.gov/results/BATbursts/team_web/S190510g/web/source.html

No clear counterpart for S190509g is found down to a typical 3sigma 
magnitude of r > 19 (AB).


We report the presence of a possible transient (likely unrelated to 
S190509g) found in the analysis of the REM

frames at the following coordinates (J2000):

RA = 14:29:15.99

Dec = +09:41:12.3

(+/- 1").


The source has a magnitude of r = 17.3 +/- 0.1 (AB, calibrated against 
the SDSS). We note that this object is

3.5" from the SDSS galaxy SDSS J142916.22+094112.1, whose catalogue 
magnitude is r = 22.56 +/- 0.20 and

photometric redshift is z = 0.182 +/- 0.073.


Further analysis and observations are planned.

M. Axelsson (KTH and Stockholm Univ.), M. Arimoto (Kanazawa Univ.), E. Moretti (IFAE, Barcelona), D. Kocevski (NASA/MSFC), N. Omodei (Stanford Univ.) and F. Dirirsa (Univ. of Johannesburg) report on behalf of the Fermi-LAT collaboration:

We have searched data collected by the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) on May 10, 2019, for possible high-energy (E > 100 MeV) gamma-ray emission in spatial/temporal coincidence with the LIGO/Virgo trigger S190510g (GCN 24442
Loading...
 
 ).

We define "instantaneous coverage" as the integral over the region of the LIGO probability map that is within the LAT field of view at a given a time, and "cumulative coverage" as the integral of the instantaneous coverage over time.

The Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope was passing through the South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA) at the time of the trigger (T0 = 2019-05-10 02:59:39.292 UTC). During SAA passages both the LAT and Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) do not collect data due to the high charged particle background in this region. The LAT resumed taking data upon exiting the SAA at roughly T0 + 1340 s. At that time the instantaneous coverage was ~30% of the LIGO probability map, and reached 100% cumulative coverage after ~8.3 ks.

We performed a search for a transient counterpart within the observed region of the 90% contour of the LIGO map in a fixed time window from T0 + 1340 s to T0 + 10 ks. No significant new sources are found.

We also performed a search which adapted the time interval of the analysis to the exposure of each region of the sky, and no additional excesses were found.

Energy flux upper bounds for the fixed time interval between 100 MeV and 100 GeV for this search vary between 1.1e-10 and 1.0e-9 [erg/cm^2/s].

The Fermi-LAT point of contact for this event is Feraol Dirirsa (fdirirsa@uj.ac.za<mailto:fdirirsa@uj.ac.za>).

The Fermi-LAT is a pair conversion telescope designed to cover the energy band from 20 MeV to greater than 300 GeV. It is the product of an international collaboration between NASA and DOE in the U.S. and many scientific institutions across France, Italy, Japan and Sweden.

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration and the Virgo Collaboration report:


We continue analyzing the LIGO and Virgo data around the time of

the Compact Binary Coalescence (CBC) candidate S190510g

(GCN 24442

  and GCN 24448

 ):


https://gracedb.ligo.org/superevents/S190510g/


A new version of the classification estimation code, which better accounts

for the significance of the event using detection-pipeline-specific foreground

and background models, was applied to the data. This yields the following

updated classification of the GW signal, in order of descending probability:

BNS (85%), Terrestrial (15%), NSBH (<1%), BBH (<1%), or MassGap (<1%).

This new version of the classification estimation code will be deployed in

the front-end of the low latency pipelines on the next detector maintenance

intervention on Tuesday, May 14th 2019 15:00UTC.


Continued examination of this event also revealed there are data

quality issues and non-stationary noise behavior around the time of the

event. Its significance may decrease as our estimate of the background

improves. If the event is astrophysical, the currently preferred

skymap still represents our best estimate of source location. However,

the noise characteristics around the time of the event could bias such

localizations.


Further analysis of the event is ongoing.

(UC Berkeley) report on behalf of the Lick/KAIT GW follow-up team:

The 0.76-m Katzman Automatic Imaging Telescope (KAIT), located at
Lick Observatory, observed the field of the gravitational-wave event
S190510g (GCN 24442
Loading...
 
 ) detected by LIGO/Virgo. More than one thousand
galaxies were selected from the Glade catalog V1.0 (Dalya et al.,
2018, MNRAS, 479, 2374; http://aquarius.elte.hu/glade/)
according to their priority score. KAIT observed 303 of them based on
their priority scores and elevation visibility, with each clear-filter
exposure time being 60 s. The first image was taken at 04:26:32, May. 10 UT,
about 1.4 hours after the trigger, and the last image at 12:17:12 UT.
Our typical limiting mag is 19.0. No viable counterparts were identified
and the analysis is ongoing. A full list of galaxies observed by KAIT
is given below.

We report our optical and near-infrared imaging observations for
the gravitational wave event S190510g. We started our observations
about 7.5 hours after the alert.

We performed galaxy-targeted observations for 28 galaxies (see the
table below) selected from the GLADE catalog (Dalya et al. 2016)
in the probability skymap of S190510g using the following
telescopes and instruments.

 - 50 cm MITSuME telescope at Akeno Observatory and a 3 color imager (g, Rc, Ic)
 - 50 cm MITSuME telescope at Okayama Astrophysical Observatory and a 3 color imager (g, Rc, Ic)
 - 55 cm SaCRA telescope at Saitama University and MuSaSHI (r, i, z)
 - 61 cm Boller & Chivens telescope at Mt. John Observatory in New Zealand (B&C) and a three color imager Tripole5 (g, r, i)
 - 91 cm Okayama Astrophysical Observatory NIR Wide$B!>(BField Camera, OAOWFC (J) (Yanagisawa, K., et al. 2016, Proc. SPIE, 9908, 99085D)
 - 150 cm Kanata telescope at Higashi-Hiroshima Observatory and HONIR -- a 2 channel imager (Rc and H or J) (Akitaya et al. 2014, 9147, 91474O)
 - 200 cm Nayuta telescope at Nishi-Harima Astronomical Observatory and Nishiharima Infrared Camera, NIC (J, H, Ks)
 - 380 cm Seimei telescope at Okayama Observatory and optical-fiber integral field spectrograph, KOOLS-IFU

We found no apparent transient object in these galaxies to 5 sigma
limiting magnitudes listed below, except for a few marginal cases
that are being carefully investigated by spectroscopy. We will post
it if it is likely an actual transient.

 ). The observation took place at the KMTNet South Africa (SAAO) and
Chile (CTIO) stations, starting at 2019-5-10 16:38 UT. The images were
taken in R-band with 240 sec exposure time to the depth of R ~ 21.7
(5-sigma detection). The search for transients is ongoing, although no
obvious transient has been identified so far.


We thank the KMTNet staffs for performing the observation.

Starting on 2019 May 10 22:56 UTC, we observed the high-probability region of the LALInference skymap of gravitational wave source S190510g (LIGO/VIRGO Collaboration, GCN #24448
Loading...
 
 ) using the Dark Energy Camera (DECam) on the Victor M. Blanco 4m Telescope at Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory, Chile, continuing the observations described in Andreoni et al. (2019; GCN #24443
Loading...
 
 ). We covered 78.9 deg^2 of the localization region and 66% of the probability in the r and z filters to average limiting magnitudes of 23.1 (r-band) and 21.9 (z-band), obtaining 1 epoch in z and 1 in r. We obtained g-band for roughly 85% of the fields to a limiting magnitude of 22.9. We performed difference imaging in real-time using an automated  pipeline we developed for gravitational wave counterpart searches, taking reference images from the Dark Energy Survey and the Dark Energy Camera Legacy Survey, covering 100% of the observed area.

Below is a preliminary list of interesting candidates based on our real-time pipeline. Each candidate has at least two detections in two different filters and a prominent host galaxy.

We note that the host of DG19llhk is at z=0.07, consistent with the current LVC distance estimate. At this distance, the absolute magnitude would be -16.4, consistent with GW170817 at +1 day. We also note that the colors of DG19lcnl appear consistent with GW170817, but we do not have a host redshift. However, we caution that we do not have any constraints on the light curve history and hence, the phase of this event. We strongly encourage spectroscopic follow-up to classify these transients. 

We thank the CTIO staff, Steve Heathcote, Kathy Vivas, Tim Abbott, for facilitating these Target of Opportunity observations.

In response to:
LIGO/Virgo GW trigger S190510g
T0=2019-05-10 02:59:39 UTC

We searched for Ultra-High-Energy (UHE) neutrinos with energies
above ~ 1e17 eV in data collected with the Surface Detector (SD)
of the Pierre Auger Observatory in a [-500,500] second interval
about the LIGO-Virgo trigger S190510g as well as 1 day after it.

The field of view (fov) where the SD of Auger is sensitive to UHE
neutrinos (corresponding to inclined directions with respect to the
vertical relative to the ground) was PARTIALLY COINCIDENT (18.1%) with
the LIGO 90% localization region at the time T0 of the merger alert,
achieving MAXIMUM OVERLAP (78.8%) at approximately T0+5.9 hours.

NO events survived the cuts applied to reject the background due to UHE
Cosmic Rays i.e.
NO NEUTRINO CANDIDATES WERE DETECTED.

The Pierre Auger Observatory is an UHE Cosmic Ray detector
located in the Mendoza Province in Argentina. It consists of
an array of Water Cherenkov detectors spread over a total surface
of 3000 km^2 arranged in a triangular grid of 1.5 km side as well
as Fluorescence telescopes and other systems

LIGO/Virgo S190510g: DESGW counterpart candidate (desgw-190510a)

Jim Annis for the DESGW collaboration

We report a candidate counterpart to the binary neutron star merger S190510g reported by LIGO/VIRGO Collaboration (GCN Circular No. 24442, updated GCN Circular No. 24448). The region was imaged by DECam on the night of 2019 May 10 (GCN Circular No. 24467).  The candidate was identified by visual inspection of 566 galaxies nearby galaxies within the 50% localization probability region of the merger. The visual inspection compared the new images with deep pre-existing imaging data obtained by the Dark Energy Survey. The transient appears in our g,r,z images.

 ) using the 0.9-m Schmidt telescope located at 
Xinglong, Hebei, China. Observations started at 12:50:37 UT on 
2019-05-10 and ended at 18:39:16 UT on 2019-05-10, and the 1.5 x 1.5 
deg^2 imager scanned relatively high probability regions of the LVC 
localization that are accessible to the Xinglong/Schmidt telescope. The 
unfiltered images were taken with 60 sec exposure time and typical 
limiting depth is around 18.5 mag.

Below listed are the field centers observed.

The OT unfiltered magnitude is ~20 m in our red CCD.

The OT is seen in 2 images. There is no minor planet at this place.

We have reference image on 2019-02-04.86162 UT with  unfiltered mlim=

We observed the optical transient (OT), r = 17.3 +/- 0.1 (AB, calibrated 
against
the SDSS), in P. D'Avanzo et al. (GCN 24455
Loading...
 
 ) of the gravitational-wave 
event S190510g (GCN 24442
Loading...
 
 ) using the Xinglong-60cm telescope located at 
Xinglong, Hebei, China.

The OT is ~20" away from the SDSS galaxy, SDSS J142914.95+094059.4, 
which has a photoZ=0.041 +/- 0.0149, corresponding to a luminosity 
distance of 182.2 Mpc, thus being consistent with the LIGO's luminosity 
distance estimate of 227 +/- 92 Mpc (GCN 24448
Loading...
 
 ). At the above redshift, 
SDSS J142914.95+094059.4 has an absolute magnitude of M(r) = 17.92-36.30 
= -18.38, at the border of dwarf/normal galaxies. The OT is ~16.3 kpc 
away from the nucleus of the SDSS galaxy, much larger than usual radii 
of such galaxies. If double neutron stars are considered having been 
kicked out of their host galaxy earlier before, such a scenario might be 
possible.

Under the above assumption, we obtained 15x360 s frames in R band, 
started at 16:12:27 on 2019-05-10, i.e., about 10 hr after the OT 
detected. The OT has decayed and is not detected in our stacked image of 
5400 s, down to a limiting magnitude of r ~ 20.6, calibrated with the 
SDSS field.

LIGO/Virgo S190510g: DESGW counterpart candidates over 80% of the GW localization area

Marcelle Soares-Santos for the DESGW collaboration


We report candidate counterparts to the binary neutron star merger S190510g reported by the LIGO/VIRGO Collaboration (GCN Circular No. 24442, updated GCN Circular No. 24448). The region was imaged by DECam on the night of 2019 May 10 (GCN Circular No. 24467) in g,r,z bands.


These candidates were identified by our difference imaging pipeline. All newly obtained images were subtracted from deep pre-existing Dark Energy Survey images. The total coverage difference imaged is 28 fields of 3 square degrees each, i.e., a total of 84 square degrees which overlap ~80% of the total localization probability of S190510g.


After processing the entire area, we select high-confidence detections (machine learning score>0.7, rejecting dipoles) and perform post-processing vetting of the candidates (rejection of variable objects, matching to host galaxies, and visual inspection).


The resulting list of candidates is provided. We encourage followup:

desgw-190510k  87.146843 -35.994357  19.75 0.02 z 58613.966  -1.0 Host redshift not available


As an alternative means of selecting high interest candidates, we used KN-Classify, a random forest classifier trained on transient light curves from PLAsTiCC models to determine the probability of a transient being a kilonova. The only such candidate found that survived the vetting process was also found by the normal method and is listed in the table above (desgw-190510c).


Transients matched to a galaxy at a redshift beyond distances plausible for the S190510g event are interpreted as supernova unassociated with S190510g.

Africa (SAAO), Chile (CTIO), and Australia (SSO) stations. The list of the
observed targets are given below,  along with preliminary R-band
magnitudes. Note that the errors do not include systematic errors due to
image subtraction. The error associated with the image subtraction should
be considered to be 0.1-0.2 mag at this moment. None of the candidates
below show significant fading (> 0.5 mag) over ~1 day. All of the
candidates show very slow or no fading, consistent with them being
supernovae. Further observation is ongoing.
We thank the KMTNet staffs for performing the observation.

The CALET Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (CGBM) was operating at the 
trigger time of S190510g T0=2019/05/10 02:59:39.292 UT (The LIGO 
Scientific Collaboration and Virgo Collaboration, GCN Circ. 24442

 ).  

No CGBM on-board trigger occurred around the event time.  Based 
on the LIGO-Virgo localization sky map, most of the part of the high
probability area was outside of the field-of-view of CGBM.  The 
summed LIGO probabilities inside the HXM and the SGM field of
view are 2% and 7% (and 84% credible region of the updated
localization map were Earth-occulted).  The HXM and SGM field of
views were centered at RA=298.7 deg, Dec = 60.7 deg and
RA=295.7 deg, Dec=50.8 deg at T0.

Based on the analysis of the light curve data with 0.125 sec 
time resolution from T0-60 sec to T0+60 sec, we found no 
significant excess around the trigger time in either the 
HXM (7-3000 keV) or the SGM (40 keV -28 MeV) data. 

The CALET Calorimeter (CAL) was operating in high energy trigger
mode at the trigger time of S190510g. Using CAL data, we have 
searched for gamma-ray events in the 10-100 GeV band from 
-60 sec to +60 sec from the GW trigger time and found no
candidates.  There is no significant overlap with the LVC location 
probability map.  The CAL FOV was centered at RA=295.7 deg, 
Dec=50.8 deg at T0.

MASTER OT J135130.87-525534.4 (2019fcc) - OT inside PGC087378

We report on spectroscopic observations conducted with the IMACS Spectrograph on the 6.5m Magellan-Baade telescope of a candidate optical counterpart to the gravitational wave event S190510g (The LIGO Scientific Collaboration and the Virgo Collaboration, GCN 24442

 ). The counterpart was identified during difference image processing of public DECam observations (Andreoni et al. GCN 24443
Loading...
 
 , Andreoni et al. GCN 24467

 , Soares-Santos et al. GCN 24480

 ).

Lists of promising counterparts were identified on the basis of factors such as their brightness, colors, and possible host galaxy association. We were able to obtain deep spectroscopy of DG19fqqk/desgw-190510c, which is an interesting source as it was flagged by a light curve classifier trained to identify kilonovae (KN-Classify, GCN 24480

DG19fqqk/desgw-190510c shows a broad feature consistent with H-alpha at a redshift of 0.06 and template matching using Superfit (Howell et al. 2005, ApJ, 634, 1190) suggests a good match to a Type II SNe approximately one week after peak brightness. This candidate was also observed by KMTNet (GCN #24493

 ) and showed no significant fading over ~1 day.

We conclude that the transient is not associated with the gravitational wave event S190510g.

We thank Paul Goudfrooij and Thomas Puzia for taking these observations.

We report observations of the BAYESTAR skymap of the BNS event S190510g
(The LIGO Scientific Collaboration and the Virgo Collaboration, GCN

 ) with the Pan-STARRS1 telescope (Chambers et al. 2016,

 C) and the ATLAS telescopes (Tonry et al. 2018, PASP
PASP, 13, 164505). 

We acknowledge that is now a marginal candidate (LSC & VC, GCN 24489
Loading...
 
 )
and note that we completed our scanning of the BAYESTAR skymap, before
the LALInference map was available (resulting in a final 4%
probability coverage).

For Pan-STARRS1 : images were taken in the PS1 w and i-bands (Tonry
et al. 2012, ApJ 750, 99) in the standard NEO search sequence. At each
pointing position a sequence of quads (4 x 45 sec) was taken. This
observing sequence ensures exactly the same pointing position for each
of the quads.

The PS1 images were processed with the IPP (Magnier et al. 2016,
arXiv:1612.05240
Loading...
 
 ) and difference images were produced using the
Pan-STARRS1 Science Consortium 3Pi images as reference
frames. Transient candidates were run through our standard filtering
procedures, combined with a machine learning algorithm (Wright et
al. 2015, MNRAS, 449, 451) and all candidates were
spatially cross-matched with known minor planets, and major star,
galaxy, AGN and multi-wavelength catalogues (as described in Smartt et
al. 2016, MNRAS, 462 4094).

For ATLAS, we observed with sequences of 4 x 30s, typically reaching
o ~ 19.5 in each pointing (e.g. Weiland et al. GCN 24107
Loading...
 
 ).

We covered the small probability region of the LalInference map (total
summed probability of 4%) at 13-14hrs (the 6hr region was not visible
from Hawaii).  We began taking Pan-STARRS data at 2019-05-10 07:09
(UTC), ~4.2 hrs after the GW trigger. ATLAS started at a similar time.

No new extragalactic transient candidates were discovered with ATLAS
within the 90% contour (brighter than about o ~ 19.5) 

In the PS1 data, the following 23 transients were found lying within
the 90% contour of the LALInference map. We give them 3 ranks : 

Rank 1 candidates are plausibly within the distance range reported by
the LIGO-Virgo analysis (~130 Mpc < d < ~220 Mpc). This comes from
host galaxy association and their spectroscopic or photometric
redshifts. 

Rank 2 candidates are not obviously associated with a catalogued
host galaxy. 

Rank 3 candidates are probably associated with a galaxy outside the
distance range.

 ). This is a
follow-up report of the KMTNet result (Im et al. GCN 24493

 ), adding data
points taken after our earlier report.  With the additional data, we now
have at least one day cadence of KMTNet data of all the objects enabling us
to determine their variability for 1 day or more using internally
consistent photometry. The list of the observed targets are given below,
 along with preliminary R-band magnitudes. None of the candidates below
show significant fading (> 0.5 mag) over ~1 day. All of the candidates show
very slow (<0.2 mag) or no fading, consistent with them being supernovae.

We thank the KMTNet staffs for performing the observation.

Loading...
 
  (Srivastav et al., 
GCNC 24517) within the error area of the GW event S190510g (LVC, GCNC

A with the 10.4m GTC telescope equipped with OSIRIS in La Palma (Spain) 
starting on May 13, 23:55 UT.

The AT2019ezb

  spectrum is consistent with a SNIc at the host galaxy 
redshift (z=0.0712).

The AT2019far

  spectrum is consistent with a SNIIp at the host galaxy 
redshift (z=0.0583).

Therefore both transients are unrelated to the GW event S190510g.

We acknowledge the excellent support from the GTC staff.

 ) of the high-probability region of the LALInference skymap of gravitational wave source S190510g (LIGO/VIRGO Collaboration, GCN #24448
Loading...
 
 ) with the Dark Energy Camera (DECam), we report the detection of an additional optical counterpart candidate, DS19qcso. The transient was detected ~2��� offset to the N of the nucleus of its host galaxy through difference imaging using an automated pipeline, and appeared in g and r-band, but not in z-band. Coordinates and observed magnitudes (at jday 2458614.5) are as follows:

DS19qcso
Coordinates: 88.208631 -30.381382 (05:52:50.07 -30:22:53.0)
g mag: 21.57 (0.13)
r mag: 22.69 (0.21)
z mag: > 21.9

The host galaxy is identified as 2MASXi J0552500-302254, but no host redshift is available. From Pan-STARRS imaging, we measure the host galaxy to be 15������ across. Postage stamp images of the candidate can be viewed at the following link:

(NASA/GSFC/UMCP) report on behalf of the Swift team:

Swift has performed a series of 977 observations, covering 977 separate
locations within the LVC error region for the GW trigger S190510g
convolved with the 2MPZ catalogue (Bilicki et al. 2014, ApJS, 210, 9),
using 226 fields from the 'bayestar' GW localisation map and 751 fields
from the 'LALInference' GW localisation map. As these are 3D skymaps,
galaxy distances were taken into account in selecting which ones to
observe. The observations currently span from 7.2 ks to 270 ks after
the LVC trigger, and cover 76.9 sq degrees on the sky (corrected for
overlaps). This covers 58% of the probability in the 'LALInference'
skymap, and 67% after convolving with the 2MPZ galaxy catalogue, as
described by Evans et al., (2016, MNRAS,  462, 1591). Using the earlier
'bayestar' skymap our observations cover 10% of the probability (14%
when convolved).

We have detected 33 X-ray sources. Each source is assigned a rank of
1-4 which describes how likely it is to be related to the GW trigger,
with 1 being the most likely and 4 being the least likely. The ranks
are described at http://www.swift.ac.uk/ranks.php.

We have found:

   * 0 sources of rank 1
   * 0 sources of rank 2
   * 5 sources of rank 3
   * 28 sources of rank 4

Details of these sources can be viewed online via 
http://www.swift.ac.uk/LVC/

For all GW triggers from O3 onwards, XRT results will appear on this 
page, once human verification has taken place to remove spurious sources.

Additionally, our search serendipitously covered the locations of some 
of the other reported candidates. In particular the location of 
DG19fqqk/desgw-190510c (GCNs 24467
Loading...
 
 , 24480
Loading...
 
 ) was covered 4 times. No XRT 
source was found with a 3-sigma upper limit of 6.1 x 10^-2 ct/sec, 
corresponding to a 0.3-10 keV flux of 2.6 x 10^-12 erg cm^-2 s^-1. The 
location of DG19llhk (GCNs 24467
Loading...
 
 ) was covered 3 times with no detection 
found, down to a  3-sigma upper limit of 6.4 x 10^-2 ct/sec, 
corresponding to 2.8e-12 erg cm^-2 s^-1. Both flux conversions assume a

Swift UVOT instrument started follow up observations of LVC event S190510g
121 minutes after the event until just over 3 days later, observing 977
fields
in the highest probability region (Evans et al., GCN Circ. No. 24541).

The UVOT approach for searching for the ultraviolet-optical counterpart has
been described in Kuin et al. (GCN Circ. No. 24767). The limiting magnitude
can vary but typically is 18.6th magnitude (Vega). The automated UVOT
processing
found 2836 galaxies using the GLADE catalog and flagged 121 counterpart
candidates. Human inspection of these 121 candidates found no credible
optical-ultraviolet source for the event, but 105 out of the 121 candidates
were due to an unstable attitude or due to image artifacts from very bright
sources. Neither did further inspection of the images of the galaxies lead
to a candidate missed by the automated processing.
