Prospects for joint detections of gravitational waves from future gravitational wave networks and gamma-ray burst with the HADAR experiment
The detection of GW170817/GRB170817A implied a strong association between short gamma-ray bursts (SGRBs) and binary neutron star (BNS) mergers which produce gravitational waves (GWs), opening a new window for multimessenger observations. The upcoming High Altitude Detection of Astronomical Radiation (HADAR) experiment, remarkable for its wide field of view and its large effective area above tens of GeV, will enable the prompt detection of very high-energy (VHE; $>10\text{ }\text{ }\mathrm{GeV}$) SGRBs. The aim of this paper is to explore GW/SGRB joint detections by future GW detector networks in synergy with HADAR, including the second-generation LIGO (Livingston, Hanford, and future India), Virgo, and KAGRA, and the third-generation ET and CE. For SGRB detections, we inherit the model from our previous work on short GRBs, with an adjustment of the jet structure. We adopt a phenomenological model to describe the GWs produced by BNSs and detected by the network of interferometers. We compute theoretical detection efficiency functions of GW detector networks, and we simulate pseudodetections by Monte Carlo sampling. We check that our predictions are in agreement with the actual detections of LIGO-Virgo in the O2 and O3 observing runs. The joint detection of GW/SGRBs is then discussed, including their parameter correlations, triggered GW thresholds, and joint detection skymaps. The estimated joint detection rates are $0.3--3.3\text{ }\text{ }{\mathrm{yr}}^{\ensuremath{-}1}$ for a LHVKI--HADAR network with different parameters and possible configurations, and they range from 0.4 to $4.7\text{ }\text{ }{\mathrm{yr}}^{\ensuremath{-}1}$ for a $\mathrm{ET}+\mathrm{CE}$--HADAR network.
