May GWs signals by BH BH merging be associated with any gamma or neutrino burst? The case of a NS NS merging in GW GRB170817A
Daniele Fargion, Pier Giorgio De Sanctis Lucentini, Pietro Oliva,, Maxim Yu. Khlopov

TL;DR
This paper explores the potential association between gravitational wave signals from black hole mergers and gamma or neutrino bursts, focusing on neutron star mergers like GW170817 and their observable electromagnetic counterparts.
Contribution
It proposes a model where neutron star mergers produce observable gamma-ray and neutrino signals, especially in off-axis configurations, enhancing understanding of multi-messenger astronomy.
Findings
GW170817 was a neutron star merger with associated gamma-ray burst.
The gamma-ray burst was likely observed off-axis, explaining its unique features.
Neutron star mergers can produce detectable electromagnetic counterparts in various orientations.
Abstract
The Gravitational Wave (GW) events GW150914, GW151226, GW170104 detected by LIGO were a record of Black Hole binary merging system (BH-BH) very probably in nearly empty or a vacuum space; such a kind of events will be mostly with no baryon mass (plasma or dense masses) and therefore mute or blind in any correlated gamma band. If the GWs events might be born inside a globular cluster, a star forming region or along a spiral AGN accretion disk their additional accreting mass may be the needed baryon load to explode and shine: in those dense places. BH BH collapse may also offer an optical X and gamma afterglow via their baryon lightening and photon tracks. Only very nearby (tens Mpc) BH Neutron Star (NS) or NS NS cannibal merging might be guaranteed and associated also with a desired, visible and correlated spherical NS explosion (kilonova one); they require much lower threshold or just…
