Context. Short duration gamma-ray bursts (SGRBs) are thought to be related to the violent merger of compact objects, such as neutron stars or black holes, which makes them promising sources of gravitational waves. The detection of a "kilonova"-like signature associated to the Swift-detected GRB 130603B has suggested that this event is the result of a compact object merger.
