   Linked via "short Gamma-Ray Bursts (sGRBs)"

   Electromagnetic Counterparts
   The inspiral culminates in a merger, an event hypothesized to power short Gamma-Ray Bursts (sGRBs). The merger ejects neutron-rich material, which undergoes rapid neutron capture (the r-process), synthesizing elements heavier than iron, such as gold and platinum, in a transient event called a kilonova. The spectral signature of kilonovae is characterized by ra…
