LIGO/Virgo S200213t: Updated coverage and candidate list for the Zwicky Transient Facility
Abstract
An updated skymap from the bilby pipeline (Ashton et al., 2019) was released for the gravitational-wave trigger S200213t (LVC, GCN #27042). We previously reported observations performed with the Palomar 48-inch telescope equipped with the Zwicky Transient Facility camera (ZTF, Bellm et al. 2019, Graham et al. 2019) in Kasliwal et al., GCN #27051. The updated ZTF coverage based on the bilby skymap is 81%. Several candidates discovered with ZTF were previously reported (Kasliwal et al., GCN #27051; Andreoni et al., GCN #27065; Reusch et al., GCN #27068), most of which were spectroscopically classified as transients unrelated to S200213t (Valeev et al., GCN #27060; Castro-Tirado et al., GCN #27063; Ho et al., GCN #27074; Andreoni et al., GCN #27075). Candidates that require spectroscopic follow-up and are included in the 95% probability area of the bilby skymap are listed in the table below. +--------------+-----------+-------------+--------------+--------+------+----------+-------+ | Name | IAU Name | RA | Dec | filter | mag | MJD | Notes | +--------------+-----------+-------------+--------------+--------+------+----------+-------+ | ZTF20aanakwb | AT2020cls | 00:26:05.17 | +42:46:25.40 | g | 21.0 | 58893.11 | | | ZTF20aanaltd | AT2020clt | 00:38:57.76 | +43:26:27.85 | g | 20.8 | 58893.11 | | | ZTF20aamvpvx | AT2020clx | 02:07:45.67 | +20:01:50.21 | g | 20.3 | 58892.21 | (1) | | ZTF20aanamcs | AT2020crc | 00:54:58.40 | +43:29:52.89 | r | 20.9 | 58893.14 | (2) | | ZTF20aanakge | AT2020crd | 00:50:31.35 | +41:29:03.04 | r | 20.7 | 58893.14 | | | ZTF20aanaqhe | AT2020cre | 01:08:10.22 | +45:31:32.37 | g | 20.9 | 58892.22 | (3) | | ZTF20aanakes | AT2020cly | 00:08:23.65 | +38:02:38.86 | g | 21.1 | 58893.11 | (a) | +--------------+-----------+-------------+--------------+--------+------+----------+-------+ (a) orphan, g-r~0.8, 22 minutes of time separation between detections (1) photoz = 0.07 (SDSS) (2) photoz = 0.13 (SDSS) (3) photoz = 0.16 (SDSS) ZTF and GROWTH are worldwide collaborations comprising Caltech, USA; IPAC, USA, WIS, Israel; OKC, Sweden; JSI/UMd, USA; U Washington, USA; DESY, Germany; MOST, Taiwan; UW Milwaukee, USA; LANL USA; Tokyo Tech, Japan; IITB, India; IIA, India; LJMU, UK; TTU, USA; SDSU, USA and USyd, Australia.
