GW-EM delay: Δt = d·(1/v_gw - 1/c)

Layer 1 — Physicsin the multi-messenger-astrophysics subtree

For a multi-messenger event at luminosity distance d producing both gravitational-wave and electromagnetic signals emitted simultaneously at the source, the observed arrival-time difference on Earth is Δt = d·(1/v_gw − 1/c), where v_gw is…
