TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 37598 SUBJECT: LIGO/Virgo/KAGRA S240921cw: Updated Sky localization DATE: 24/09/24 14:27:43 GMT FROM: Elise Sänger at Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics (AEI Potsdam) elise.sanger@ligo.org
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, and the KAGRA Collaboration report:
We have conducted further analysis of the LIGO Livingston Observatory (L1) and Virgo Observatory (V1) data around the time of the compact binary merger (CBC) candidate S240921cw (GCN Circular 37586). 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/S240921cw
For the Bilby.multiorder.fits,0 sky map, the 90% credible region is 471 deg2. Marginalized over the whole sky, the a posteriori luminosity distance estimate is 866 +/- 204 Mpc (a posteriori mean +/- standard deviation).
