Optical Counterparts to Gravitational Waves\n\n_Dissertation Presented to the Graduate Faculty of The University of Texas at San Antonio In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements For the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Physics_\n\nBy Martin Beroiz.\n\n## Abstract\n\nThe novel field of Gravitational Wave Astronomy has opened a new window to the universe.\nNever before had we received gravitational waves from the distant celestial bodies carried away by space-time perturbations, until the detection of GW150914 on September 14, 2015.\nBut these signals, however faint, carry very little information about their positions on the sky.\nThe sky localization can have uncertainties that span up to a few hundreds square degrees, which makes locating the sources very difficult.\n\nTraditional Astronomy can complement this limitation of gravitational wave detection where optical astronomy is stronger: localization.\nHowever, this poses other technological challenges of a different kind.\nIn the era of multi-messenger Astronomy, a low latency response time after detection is crucial in order to have any hope of detecting the optically faint electromagnetic counterparts of the event.\n\nThe mission of the Transient Optical Robotic Observatory of the South (TOROS), in the context of multi-messenger and time-domain astronomy, is to create a facility ready to respond to gravitational wave detections for prompt follow-up observations searching for optical counterparts.\n\nThis dissertation discusses the implementation of a software pipeline for the TOROS project and the results obtained during the O1 campaign of Advanced LIGO.\n\n### Compilation and installation\n\nTo compile the LaTeX document, a makefile is provided. In Unix-like systems, type:\n\n    $ make\n\nThis will create auxiliary files in `obj/` folder and the final pdf file in there as well.\n\n    $ make install\n\nsimply copies the final document `thesis.pdf` at the makefile directory level.\n\n---\n\n### Important Notice\n\nThe git-version controlled copy of this thesis is intended as a live update of my doctoral thesis.\n\n### Disclaimer\n\nThis may not faithfully reflect the final version of the doctoral thesis in its entirety.\n\nFor the official doctoral thesis approved and published by the University of Texas at San Antonio, please checkout version 1.1 of this repository, which best reflects the printed version.\n\nFurther versions and commits are intended to improve the software development side of the project but will seldom modify the content.\n\n---\n\n**(c) Copyright 2017 Martin Beroiz All rights reserved.**\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fmartinberoiz%2Fdocthesis","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fmartinberoiz%2Fdocthesis","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fmartinberoiz%2Fdocthesis/lists"}
