Prospects of Gravitational-wave Follow-up through a Wide-field Ultraviolet Satellite: A Dorado Case Study

Prospects of Gravitational-wave Follow-up through a Wide-field Ultraviolet Satellite: A Dorado Case Study

The detection of gravitational waves from the binary neuron star merger GW170817 and electromagnetic counterparts GRB170817A and AT2017gfo kick-started the field of gravitational-wave multimessenger astronomy. The optically red to near-infrared emission (“red” component) of AT2017gfo was readily exp...
