A COMPREHENSIVE STUDY OF DETECTABILITY AND CONTAMINATION IN DEEP RAPID OPTICAL SEARCHES FOR GRAVITATIONAL WAVE COUNTERPARTS

Authors: P. S. Cowperthwaite and E. Berger

2015 The Astrophysical Journal 814 25.

Provider: AAS Journals

Caption: Figure 22.

Same as Figure 21, but showing the fraction of events for which a brightening is detected. Compared to the case of dynamical ejecta only, it is significantly more challenging to detect brightening in these alternative kilonova models due to their earlier peak times and rapid evolution.
