摘要:

LIGO和Virgo的第三次观测运行(O3)揭示了引力波中第一个中子星-黑洞(NSBH)合并候选者。这些事件被预测为合成r-过程元素,产生光学/近红外“kilonova”(KN)发射。利用引力波和电磁波联合探测NSBH并合,可以约束致密核物质的物态方程,独立测量宇宙的局域膨胀率。在这里,我们提出了光学跟踪和分析的只有三个高意义的NSBH合并候选人检测到的日期,S200105 ae和S200115 j,与Zwicky瞬态设施(ZTF)。ZTF观测到S200105 ae的$\sim$\,48\%和S200115 j的定位概率的$\sim$\,22\%,观测对KNe比$-$ 17.5\,mag在g和r波段以0.5\,mag/天衰减敏感;对候选者的广泛搜索和系统跟踪没有产生可行的对应物。我们提出了国家的最先进的KN模型量身定制的NSBH系统,这些NSBH合并的喷出物属性的限制。我们表明,$\rm m_{\rm AB}\approx 22$磁的深度,可达到米级,宽视场的调查仪器,喷出物质量的强约束是可能的,有可能排除低质量比,高BH自旋,大中子星半径。

英文摘要:

LIGO and Virgo's third observing run (O3) revealed the first neutron star-black hole (NSBH) merger candidates in gravitational waves. These events are predicted to synthesize r-process elements creating optical/near-IR "kilonova" (KN) emission. The joint gravitational-wave (GW) and electromagnetic detection of an NSBH merger could be used to constrain the equation of state of dense nuclear matter, and independently measure the local expansion rate of the universe. Here, we present the optical follow-up and analysis of two of the only three high-significance NSBH merger candidates detected to date, S200105ae and S200115j, with the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF). ZTF observed $\sim$\,48\% of S200105ae and $\sim$\,22\% of S200115j's localization probabilities, with observations sensitive to KNe brighter than $-$17.5\,mag fading at 0.5\,mag/day in g- and r-bands; extensive searches and systematic follow-up of candidates did not yield a viable counterpart. We present state-of-the-art KN models tailored to NSBH systems that place constraints on the ejecta properties of these NSBH mergers. We show that with depths of $\rm m_{\rm AB}\approx 22$ mag, attainable in meter-class, wide field-of-view survey instruments, strong constraints on ejecta mass are possible, with the potential to rule out low mass ratios, high BH spins, and large neutron star radii.
