The coalescence of compact binaries (two neutron stars or a neutron star and a black hole) emits gravitational waves and are thought to produce a short Gamma-Ray Burst (sGRB). With the second generation of gravitational waves detector, the detection in coincidence of both electromagnetic and gravitational emission will open a new window in...

We use realistic Monte-Carlo simulations including both gravitational-wave and short gamma-ray burst selection effects to revisit the coincident rate of binary systems composed of two neutron stars or a neutron star and a black hole. We show that the fraction of GW triggers that can be observed in coincidence with sGRBs is proportional to the...
