Retrieve galaxy list
Retrieve galaxy list based on location
Retrieve galaxy list based on location and limiting magnitude
Overview
HOGWARTs is a web tool for the retrieval of galaxies within LIGO/Virgo localisation regions
(Salmon et al. 2019)
. The galaxies are ranked in order of probability of merger, calculated according to the method laid out by
Arcavi et al. 2017
. The back-end galaxy ranking algorithm is open source and can be found on
Github
.
The list of galaxies can be further refined based on visibility at a specific location and time and with a user-specified limiting magnitude.
