Exploring the Parameter Space of Compact Binary Population Synthesis

open access: yes, 2016
As we enter the era of gravitational wave astronomy, we are beginning to collect observations which will enable us to explore aspects of astrophysics of massive stellar binaries which were previously beyond reach.

The Pointing Error Due To Laser Propagation in Space Plasma for TianQin Gravitational Wave Detection

open access: yesSpace Weather
TianQin, a space‐borne gravitational wave observatory, is designed to detect gravitational‐wave signals via laser interferometry. As the inhomogeneous space plasma surrounds the inter‐satellite laser links, the propagation of the laser in space plasma ...

Inferring Jet Physics from Neutron Star–Black Hole Mergers with Gravitational Waves

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Neutron star–black hole (NSBH) mergers that undergo tidal disruption may launch jets that could power a gamma-ray burst (GRB). We use a population of simulated NSBH systems to measure jet parameters from the gravitational waves emitted by these systems ...

Second Order Gravitational Self-Force

open access: yes, 2012
The second-order gravitational self-force on a small body is an important problem for gravitational-wave astronomy of extreme mass-ratio inspirals. We give a first-principles derivation of a prescription for computing the first and second perturbed ...

Gravitational waves and multimessenger astronomy [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2016
It is widely expected that in the coming quinquennium the first gravitational wave signal will be directly detected. The ground-based advanced LIGO and Virgo detectors are being upgraded to a sensitivity level such that we expect to be measure a significant binary merger rate.

Lighthouses of Gravitational Wave Astronomy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Gravitational wave detectors capable of making astronomical observations could begin to operate within the next year, and over the next 10 years they will extend their reach out to cosmological distances, culminating in the space mission LISA. A prime target of these observatories will be binary systems, especially those whose orbits shrink measurably ...

Developing Tools for Multimessenger Gravitational Wave Astronomy

open access: yes, 2018
We present work in progress to craft open-sourced numerical tools that will enable the calculation of electromagnetic counterparts to gravitational waveforms: the {\tt GiRaFFE} (General Relativistic Force-Free Electrodynamics) code.
