LIGO/Virgo S190512at: Identification of a GW compact binary merger candidate
Date

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration and the Virgo Collaboration report:
We identified the compact binary merger candidate S190512at during
real-time processing of data from LIGO Hanford Observatory (H1), LIGO
Livingston Observatory (L1), and Virgo Observatory (V1) at 2019-05-12
18:07:14.422 UTC (GPS time: 1241719652.422). The candidate was found
by the PyCBC Live [1], CWB [2], GstLAL [3], MBTAOnline [4], and spiir
[5] analysis pipelines.
S190512at is an event of interest because its false alarm rate, as
estimated by the online analysis, is 1.9e-09 Hz, or about one in 16
years. The event's properties can be found at this URL:
https://gracedb.ligo.org/superevents/S190512at
The classification of the GW signal, in order of descending
probability, is BBH (99%), Terrestrial (1%), BNS (<1%), NSBH (<1%), or
MassGap (<1%).
Assuming the candidate is astrophysical in origin, there is strong
evidence against the lighter compact object having a mass < 3 solar
masses (HasNS: <1%). Using the masses and spins inferred from the
signal, there is strong evidence against matter outside the final
compact object (HasRemnant: <1%).
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
[6], distributed via GCN notice about 53 minutes after the candidate.
For the bayestar.fits.gz skymap, the 90% credible region is 399 deg2.
Marginalized over the whole sky, the a posteriori luminosity distance
estimate is 1331 +/- 341 Mpc (a posteriori mean +/- standard
deviation).
No Preliminary Notice was sent for this event due to a technical problem.

From
Claudio Kopper at IceCube/U of Alberta <ckopper@icecube.wisc.edu>
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 S190512at-2-Initial in a time range of 1000 seconds centered on the alert event time (2019-05-12 17:58:54.000 UTC to 2019-05-12 18:15:34.000 UTC) during which IceCube was collecting good quality data. No track-like events are found in spatial coincidence with the 90% spatial containment of S190512at 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 S190512at ranges from 0.029 to 0.568 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.

The INTEGRAL spacecraft has a highly elliptical orbit and the
instruments are switched off around the perigee passage, every 2.6 days,
to prevent radiation-induced damages. Unfortunately, at the time
of the LIGO/Virgo trigger S190512at (2019-05-12 18:07:14.422 UTC) the
spacecraft was preparing to start the observations after the perigee
passage between the orbits number 2089 and 2090 and no
scientific instrument data are available. INTEGRAL observations will
restart at approximately 2019-05-13 03:08:07 UTC.

From
Suraj Poolakkil at UAH <sp0076@uah.edu>
S. Poolakkil (UAH) and C.M. Hui (NASA/MSFC) report on behalf of the
Fermi-GBM Team
and the GBM-LIGO/Virgo group:
For S190512at, and using the updated BAYESTAR skymap, Fermi-GBM was
observing 34.7% of the localization probability at event time.
There was no Fermi-GBM onboard trigger around the event time of the
LIGO/Virgo detection of GW trigger S190512at (GCN 24503). An automated,
blind search for short gamma-ray bursts below the onboard triggering
threshold in Fermi-GBM also identified no counterpart candidates. The GBM
targeted search, the most sensitive, coherent search for GRB-like signals,
was run from +/-30 s around merger time, and also identified no counterpart
candidates.
Part of the LVC localization region is behind the Earth for Fermi,
located at RA = 308.1 and Dec = -3.6 with a radius of 67.2 degrees.
We therefore set upper limits on impulsive gamma-ray emission. Using the
representative soft, normal, and hard GRB-like spectral templates described
in arXiv:1612.02395, we set the following 3 sigma flux upper limits over
10-1000 keV,
weighted by the remaining visible GW localization probability (in units of
erg/s/cm^2):
Timescale soft norm hard
-----------------------------------------------
0.128 s: 2.4e-07 4.3e-07 1.0e-06
1.024 s: 5.3e-08 1.1e-07 2.5e-07
8.192 s: 2.3e-08 2.3e-08 8.0e-08
Assuming the median luminosity distance of ~1331 Mpc from the GW detection,
we
estimate intrinsic luminosity upper limits of (0.8-7.9)E49 erg/s for the
soft template, (0.7-12.7)E49 erg/s for the normal template, and
(3.9-49.3)E49 erg/s
for the hard template over the 1 keV-10 MeV energy range.

after the LVC trigger S190512at at 2019-05-12 18:07:14.422 UTC (GCN 24503).
At the trigger time of S190512at, the high-voltage of MAXI/GSC was on,
but the FOV was out of the 90% credible region of the bayestar skymap.
The first one-orbit (92 min) scan observation with GSC after the event
covered 90%
of the 90% credible region of the bayestar skymap from 18:33:5 to
19:38:1 UTC (T0+1551 to T0+5457 sec).
No significant new source was found in the region in the one-orbit
scan observation.
A typical 1-sigma averaged upper limit obtained in one scan observation
is 20 mCrab at 2-20 keV.

LIGO/Virgo S190512at: Fermi-LAT search for a high-energy gamma-ray counterpart

From
Magnus Axelsson at Stockholm U. <magaxe@kth.se>
M. Axelsson (KTH and Stockholm Univ.), D. Kocevski (NASA/MSFC) 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 12, 2019, for possible high-energy (E > 100 MeV) gamma-ray emission in spatial/temporal coincidence with the LIGO/Virgo trigger S190512at (GCN 24503).
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.
At the time of the trigger (T0 = 2019-05-12 18:07:14.422 UTC), the entire LIGO probability region was either obscured by the Earth or outside the Fermi-LAT field of view. Coverage of the region started around T0 + 1000 s, and reached 100% cumulative coverage at approximately T0 + 7 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 + 1 ks to T0 + 10 ks. No significant new sources were 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 2.5e-10 and 3.5e-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.

Using on-line data from the ANTARES detector, we have performed a follow-up analysis of the recently reported LIGO/Virgo S190512at event using the 90% contour of the initial bayestar probability map provided by the GW interferometers (GCN#24503). 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/S190512at.png <https://www.cppm.in2p3.fr/~dornic/events_runo3/S190512at.png>. Considering the location probability provided by the LIGO/Virgo collaborations, there is a 83% 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 (2019-05-12 18:07:14 UT) and in the 90% contour of the S190512at event. The expected number of atmospheric background events in the region visible by ANTARES is 1.6e-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 1.2e-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.

We report the search results in the BAT data within T0 +/- 100 s of the
LVC event S190512at (LIGO/VIRGO Collaboration GCN Circ. 24503),
where T0 is the LVC trigger time (2019-05-12T18:07:14.422 UTC).
The center of the BAT FOV at T0 is
RA = 92.704 deg,
DEC = -30.367 deg,
ROLL = 302.899 deg.
The BAT Field of View (>10% partial coding) covers 0.00% 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 ~ 7.12 x 10^-8 erg/s/cm^2.
No event data are available at this point.
BAT retains decreased, but significant, sensitivity to rate increases for
gamma-ray events outside of its FOV. About 94.73% 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.

and the CALET collaboration:
The CALET Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (CGBM) was operating at the
trigger time of S190512at T0=2019-05-12 18:07:14.422UT (The LIGO
Scientific Collaboration and Virgo Collaboration, GCN Circ. 24503).
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 inside of the field-of-view of SGM. The
summed LIGO probabilities inside the HXM and the SGM field of
view are 19% and 95% (and 0% credible region of the initial
localization map were Earth-occulted). The HXM and SGM field of
views were centered at RA=205.5 deg, Dec = 44.8 deg and
RA=214.9 deg, Dec=37.7 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 S190512at. 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.
The 90% upper limit of CAL is 1.9x10^-5 erg/cm2/s (10-100 GeV) when
the summed LIGO-Virgo probability reaches 10%.
The CAL FOV was centered at RA=214.9 deg, Dec=37.7 deg at T0.

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration and the Virgo Collaboration report:
We have re-analyzed LIGO and Virgo data around the time of the compact
binary coalescence (CBC) candidate S190512at (GCN 24503). Parameter
estimation has been performed using LALInference [1] and a new sky map,
LALInference.fits.gz, distributed via GCN Notice, is available for
retrieval from the GraceDB event page:
https://gracedb.ligo.org/superevents/S190512at
The preferred skymap at this time is LALInference.fits.gz. For the
LALInference.fits.gz skymap, the 90% credible region is 252 deg2.
Marginalized over the whole sky, the a posteriori luminosity distance
estimate is 1388 +/- 322 Mpc (a posteriori mean +/- standard
deviation).

We observed the LIGO/Virgo trigger S190512at (GCN #24503) with GWAC-F60A. Two 60cm GWAC-F60(A/B) are operated by Guangxi University and NAOC, CAS, at Xinglong Observatory. China. They are equipped with Standard
Johnson filters and 2Kx2K Andor CCD (FOV~18x18 arcmin). GWAC-F60(A/B) are used for galaxy-targeted observations. The galaxies are selected from the GLADE catalog (Version 2.3, Dalya et al. 2018) in the probability skymap of GW event. All these galaxies were observed in clear band.
The first image was taken ~19.7 hours after the event trigger time T0=2019-05-12 18:07:14 UTC. No credible new source was detected in our pipeline. A total number of 43 galaxies were observed. The coordinates (J2000) of galaxies, the observation time, the limit magnitude (3sigma) and telescopes are listed below:
