TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented the results from three gravitational-wave searches for coalescing compact binaries with component masses above 1, during the first and second observing runs of the Advanced Gravitational-wave detector network.

TL;DR: In this article, a new and general method used to search for gamma-ray counterparts to gravitational-wave (GW) triggers is described. But the method is specifically applied to single GW detector triggers.

TL;DR: In this article, a model comparison between a Gaussian and power-law apparent jet structure was performed on simulated data to demonstrate that the correct model can be distinguished with a log Bayes factor of $>5$ after less than 100 events.
