Einstein Telescope (ET) is a planned third generation gravitational waves detector located in Europe. Its design will be different from currently build interferometers, because ET will consist of three interferometers rotated by a 60 deg with respect to each other in one plane. One of the biggest challenges for ET will be to determine sky position and distance to observed sources. If an object is observed in a few interferometers simultaneously one can estimate the position using traingulation from time delays, but so far there are no plans for a network of third generation detectors. Another possibility to deal with that problem is by using multimessenger approach, because redshift and sky position could be recovered from electromagnetic observations. In this paper we present a novel method of estimating distance and position in the sky of merging binaries. While our procedure is not as accurate as the multimessenger method, it can be applied to all observations, not just the ones with electromagnetic counterparts. We have shown that it is possible to significantly improve distance estimates using the measurements of the signal to noise ratio from all three interferometers .

We consider a holographic model constructed through using the D4/D8-$bar{rm D8}$ brane configuration with a background field. We study some properties of the effective field theory in this intersecting brane construction, and calculate the effects of this NS-NS background field on some underlying dynamics. We also discuss some other general brane configurations.
The exciting development of gravitational wave (GW) astronomy in the correlation of LIGO and VIRGO detection of GW signals makes possible to expect registration of effects of not only Binary Black Hole (BH) coalescence, but also Binary Neutron Star ( NS) merging accompanied by electromagnetic (GRB) signal. Here we consider the possibility that a Neutron Star (NS), merging in a NS-NS or NS-BH system might be (soon) observed in correlation with any LIGO-VIRGO Gravitational Waves detection. We analyze as an example the recent case of the short GRB 170817A observed by Fermi and Integral. The associated Optical transient OT source in NGC4993 imply a rare near source, a consequent averaged large rate of such events (almost) compatible with expected NS NS merging rate. However the expected beamed GRB (or Short GRB) may be mostly aligned to a different direction than our. Therefore even soft GRB photons, more spread than hard ones, might be hardly able to shower to us. Nevertheless a prompt spiraling electron turbine jet in largest magnetic fields, at the base of the NS-NS collapse, might shine by its tangential synchrotron radiation in spread way with its skimming photons shining in large open disk. The consequent solid angle for such soft disk gamma radiation may be large enough to be nevertheless often observed.
The LIGO-Virgo Collaboration (LVC) detected, on 2017 August 17, an exceptional gravitational-wave (GW) event temporally consistent within $sim,1.7 , rm s$ with the GRB 1708117A observed by Fermi-GBM and INTEGRAL. The event turns out to be compatible with a neutron star-neutron star (NS-NS) coalescence that subsequently produced a radio/optical/X-ray transient detected at later times. We report the main results of the observations by the AGILE satellite of the GW170817 localization region (LR) and its electromagnetic (e.m.) counterpart. At the LVC detection time $T_0$, the GW170817 LR was occulted by the Earth. The AGILE instrument collected useful data before and after the GW-GRB event because in its spinning observation mode it can scan a given source many times per hour. The earliest exposure of the GW170817 LR by the gamma-ray imaging detector (GRID) started about 935 s after $T_0$. No significant X-ray or gamma-ray emission was detected from the LR that was repeatedly exposed over timescales of minutes, hours, and days before and after GW170817, also considering Mini-calorimeter and Super-AGILE data. Our measurements are among the earliest ones obtained by space satellites on GW170817 and provide useful constraints on the precursor and delayed emission properties of the NS-NS coalescence event. We can exclude with high confidence the existence of an X-ray/gamma-ray emitting magnetar-like object with a large magnetic field of $10^{15} , rm G$. Our data are particularly significant during the early stage of evolution of the e.m. remnant.
The Double Pulsar (PSR J0737-3039) is the only neutron star-neutron star (NS-NS) binary in which both NSs have been detectable as radio pulsars. The Double Pulsar has been assumed to dominate the Galactic NS-NS binary merger rate R_g among all known systems, solely based on the properties of the first-born, recycled pulsar (PSR J0737-3039A, or A) with an assumption for the beaming correction factor of 6. In this work, we carefully correct observational biases for the second-born, non-recycled pulsar (PSR J0737-0737B, or B) and estimate the contribution from the Double Pulsar on R_g using constraints available from both A and B. Observational constraints from the B pulsar favour a small beaming correction factor for A (~2), which is consistent with a bipolar model. Considering known NS-NS binaries with the best observational constraints, including both A and B, we obtain R_g=21_{-14}^{+28} per Myr at 95 per cent confidence from our reference model. We expect the detection rate of gravitational waves from NS-NS inspirals for the advanced ground-based gravitational-wave detectors is to be 8^{+10}_{-5} per yr at 95 per cent confidence. Within several years, gravitational-wave detections relevant to NS-NS inspirals will provide us useful information to improve pulsar population models.
The hyperfine splittings in heavy quarkonia are studied in a model-independent way using the experimental data on di-electron widths. Relativistic correlations are taken into account together with the smearing of the spin-spin interaction. The radius of smearing is fixed by the known $J/psi-eta_c(1S)$ and $psi(2S)-eta_c(2S)$ splittings and appears to be small, $r_{ss} cong 0.06$ fm. Nevertheless, even with such a small radius an essential suppression of the hyperfine splittings ($sim 50%)$ is observed in bottomonium. For the $nS~ bbar b$ states $(n=1,2,...,6)$ we predict the values (in MeV) 28, 12, 10, 6, 6, and 3, respectively. For the $3S$ and $4S$ charmonium states the splittings 16(2) MeV and 12(4) MeV are obtained.
