Surrogate Forward Models for Population Inference on Compact Binary Mergers

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Rapidly growing catalogs of compact binary mergers from advanced gravitational wave detectors allow us to explore the astrophysics of massive stellar binaries.

Attitude-Orbit Coupled Control of Gravitational Wave Detection Spacecraft with Communication Delays

Sensors, 2023
In order to meet the position and attitude requirements of spacecrafts and test masses for gravitational-wave detection missions, the attitude-orbit coordination control of multiple spacecrafts and test masses is studied.

Science Icebreaker Activities: An Example from Gravitational Wave Astronomy [PDF]

, 2005
At the beginning of a class or meeting an icebreaker activity is often used to help loosen the group and get everyone talking. Our motivation is to develop activities that serve the purpose of an icebreaker, but are designed to enhance and supplement a ...

Multiband gravitational-wave astronomy: Observing binary inspirals with a decihertz detector, B-DECIGO [PDF]

Progress of Theoretical and Experimental Physics, 2018
An evolving Japanese gravitational-wave (GW) mission at deci-Hz band: B-DECIGO (DECihertz laser Interferometer Gravitational wave Observatory) will enable us to detect GW150914-like binary black-holes, GW170817-like binary neutron-stars, and the ...

Quantum metrology for gravitational wave astronomy [PDF]

Nature Communications, 2010
Einstein's general theory of relativity predicts that accelerating mass distributions produce gravitational radiation, analogous to electromagnetic radiation from accelerating charges. These gravitational waves (GWs) have not been directly detected to date, but are expected to open a new window to the Universe once the detectors, kilometre-scale laser ...

Dark Energy in Light of Multi-Messenger Gravitational-Wave Astronomy [PDF]

Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2018
Gravitational waves (GWs) provide a new tool to probe the nature of dark energy (DE) and the fundamental properties of gravity. We review the different ways in which GWs can be used to test gravity and models for late-time cosmic acceleration. Lagrangian-

Evidence for a Correlation between Binary Black Hole Mass Ratio and Black Hole Spins

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The astrophysical origins of the binary black hole systems seen with gravitational waves are still not well understood. However, features in the distribution of black hole masses, spins, redshifts, and eccentricities provide clues into how these systems ...

A Magnetospheric Dichotomy for Pulsars with Extreme Inclinations

Universe, 2021
In this work, we expand on a comment by Lyne et al. (2017), that intermittent pulsars tend to congregate near a stripe in the logarithmic period versus period-derivative diagram.

Compact Binary Coalescences in the Band of Ground-based Gravitational-Wave Detectors

, 2010
As the ground-based gravitational-wave telescopes LIGO, Virgo, and GEO 600 approach the era of first detections, we review the current knowledge of the coalescence rates and the mass and spin distributions of merging neutron-star and black-hole binaries.
