Gamma Rays in the Modern Multi-Messenger Astronomy Era

Summary: GW170817 / GRB 170817A is one of the best observed transient and highlights the science impact of multi-messenger observations; Many open questions remain, with increased GW (Gravitational Wave) interferometer sensitivity, there will be more joint detections with GBM (Gamma-ray Burst Monitor), enabling deeper population studies of SGRBs (Short Gamma-Ray Bursts) -Additional distance measures which yield source energetics -Constrain jet structure and opening angle distribution -Cocoon emission from SGRBs -Causes of precursor and extended emission -Rates of SGRBs in the universe with implications for source evolution; Fermi GBM is currently the most prolific short GRB detector -Subthreshold searches are crucial to increasing GBM sensitivity and the detection horizon to weakevents like GRB 170817A; Looking forward to future multimessenger discoveries -Neutron star...Black hole merger, neutrinos, Fast Radio Bursts?

Gamma-Ray Astronomy Across 6 Decades of Energy: Synergy between Fermi, IACTs, and HAWC

Gamma Ray Observatories, Gamma-Ray Astrophysics, GeV TeV Sky Survey, Galaxy, Galactic Plane, Source Distribution, The gamma-ray sky is currently well-monitored with good survey coverage. Many instruments from different waveband/messenger (X rays, gamma rays, neutrinos, gravitational waves) available for simultaneous observations. Both wide-field and pointing instruments in development and coming online in the next decade LIGO
