Very High Energy facilities in the context of Electromagnetic Detectors and future prospects for Multimessenger science

Speaker

Description

The recent detection Gamma Ray Burts (GRB) by Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes opened up the possibility of Multi Messenger (MM) detection of neutron star merger events and the assiciated GRBs with Gravitational Waves (GW) and Very High Energy (VHE) gamma rays.
New facilities with enhanced sensitivities which are under construction or will start construction in the near future will overlap their operations with the next Observing runs of the present generation or future projetcs of GW interferometric detectors creating the concrete chance for a combined detection.
This talk will discuss the science potentials and the prospects with the next generation
of instruments of a joint GW and VHE gamma ray detection.
