Neutron Star Merger Rates from Multi-messenger Observations: Clues to the Physical Origin of the Short and Long-short Gamma-ray Bursts
Short and long-short GRB rates of 195-666 Gpc^{-3} yr^{-1} exceed the 66-347 Gpc^{-3} yr^{-1} EM-bright NS merger rate from GW observations, challenging a pure NS merger origin.

Wide Jets or Low Rates: Reconciling Short GRB and Gravitational-Wave Neutron Star Merger Rates
Latest GW neutron star merger rates are consistent with short GRBs being produced by BNS mergers if jets are wide or rates low, with NSBH mergers subdominant.
