Primordial black holes—perspectives in gravitational wave astronomy [PDF]
, 2018 This article reviews current understanding of primordial black holes (PBHs), with particular focus on those massive examples (≳1015 g) which remain at the present epoch, not having evaporated through Hawking radiation. With the detection of gravitational

GRAVITATIONAL WAVE ASTRONOMY [PDF]
Annual Review of Nuclear and Particle Science, 2004 ▪ Abstract The existence of gravitational radiation is a direct prediction of Einstein's theory of general relativity, published in 1916. The observation of gravitational radiation will open a new astronomical window on the universe, allowing the study of dynamic strong-field gravity, as well as many other astrophysical objects and processes ...

Gravitational-wave asteroseismology with fundamental modes from compact binary inspirals
Nature Communications, 2020 Independently measuring the tidal deformability and the fundamental oscillation mode (fmode) frequency enables tests of gravity and the nature of compact binaries.

Gravitational wave astronomy with the SKA [PDF]
Proceedings of Advancing Astrophysics with the Square Kilometre Array — PoS(AASKA14), 2014 On a time scale of years to decades, gravitational wave (GW) astronomy will become a reality. Low frequency (nanoHz) GWs are detectable through long-term timing observations of the most stable pulsars. Radio observatories worldwide are currently carrying out observing programmes to detect GWs, with data sets being shared through the International ...

An introduction to Bayesian inference in gravitational-wave astronomy: Parameter estimation, model selection, and hierarchical models [PDF]
Publications Astronomical Society of Australia, 2018 This is an introduction to Bayesian inference with a focus on hierarchical models and hyper-parameters. We write primarily for an audience of Bayesian novices, but we hope to provide useful insights for seasoned veterans as well.

Massively parallel Bayesian inference for transient gravitational-wave astronomy
Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2020 Understanding the properties of transient gravitational waves (GWs) and their sources is of broad interest in physics and astronomy. Bayesian inference is the standard framework for astrophysical measurement in transient GW astronomy.

Swift/UVOT: 18 Years of Long GRB Discoveries and Advances
Universe, 2023 The Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory (Swift) has been in operation for 18 years. The Ultra-Violet/Optical Telescope (UVOT) onboard Swift was designed to capture the earliest optical/UV emission from gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), spanning the first few minutes ...

Transdimensional Inference for Gravitational-wave Astronomy with Bilby [PDF]
Astrophysical Journal Supplement SeriesIt has become increasingly useful to answer questions in gravitational-wave astronomy using transdimensional models, where the number of free parameters can be varied depending on the complexity required to fit the data.
