Abstract: On 2019 August 14 at 21:10:39 UTC, the LIGO/Virgo Collaboration (LVC) detected a possible neutron star–black hole merger (NSBH), the first ever identified. An extensive search for an optical counterpart of this event, designated GW190814, was undertaken using the Dark Energy Camera on the 4 m Victor M. Blanco Telescope at the Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory. Target of Opportunity interrupts were issued on eight separate nights to observe 11 candidates using the 4.1 m Southern Astrophysical Research (SOAR) telescope’s Goodman High Throughput Spectrograph in order to assess whether any of these transients was likely to be an optical counterpart of the possible NSBH merger. Here, we describe the process of observing with SOAR, the analysis of our spectra, our spectroscopic typing methodology, and our resultant conclusion that none of the candidates corresponded to the gravitational wave merger event but were all instead other transients. Finally, we describe the lessons learned from this effort. Application of these lessons will be critical for a successful community spectroscopic follow-up program for LVC observing run 4 (O4) and beyond.

Abstract: This article discusses distributed monitoring through the deployment of various multiagents in the IoT-Fog-based water distribution network (WDN). This will ensure the right amount of water supplied with respect to demand forecasted to residents. In addition, underground pipe health is also monitored by means of a multiagent based on hydraulic parameters supplying water forecasted with minimal losses which would minimize the operational and material cost involved in recovery or repair. Lastly, there are agents deployed towards leakage monitoring and anti-theft detection of water. The multiagents act upon various parameters of hydrology and analysis is based on the data acquired by the various sensors deployed in the water distribution network which perform partial automation of the disconnection of the supply during extreme critical conditions.
