    • Electromagnetic Counterparts to Black Hole Mergers Detected by LIGO 

      Loeb, Abraham (American Astronomical Society, 2016)
      Mergers of stellar-mass black holes (BHs), such as GW150914 observed by LIGO, are not expected to have electromagnetic counterparts. However, the Fermi GBM detector identified of a gamma-ray transient 0.4 s after the ...
    • Electromagnetic Resonances of a Straight Wire 

      Myers, John M.; Sandler, Sheldon S.; Wu, Tai Tsun (Institute of Electrical & Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2011)
