Neutron star natal kicks could be the catalyst for binary formation and new gravitational wave sources
... state that the formation of NS-BH binaries could also produce gravitational wave emission that could be detected with aLIGO and that these sources could additionally produce a unique supernova electromagnetic counterpart which precedes the GW merger...

New search shows no link between gravitational waves and gamma-ray bursts
Short gamma-ray bursts have long been theorised to occur at the same time that a gravitational wave is created. These are produced when objects such as two neutron stars coalesce or when a neutron star and black hole collide, now however, the team ...
