TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 37596 SUBJECT: LIGO/Virgo/KAGRA S240920bz: Updated Sky localization and Source Classification DATE: 24/09/24 14:22:14 GMT FROM: jgolomb@caltech.edu
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, and the KAGRA Collaboration report:
We have conducted further analysis of the LIGO Hanford Observatory (H1), LIGO Livingston Observatory (L1), and Virgo Observatory (V1) data around the time of the compact binary merger (CBC) candidate S240920bz (GCN Circular 37562). Parameter estimation has been performed using Bilby [1] and a new sky map, Bilby.multiorder.fits,0, distributed via GCN Notice, is available for retrieval from the GraceDB event page:
https://gracedb.ligo.org/superevents/S240920bz
For the Bilby.multiorder.fits,0 sky map, the 90% credible region is 349 deg2. Marginalized over the whole sky, the a posteriori luminosity distance estimate is 1372 +/- 305 Mpc (a posteriori mean +/- standard deviation).
