SWIGLAL: Python and Octave interfaces to the LALSuite gravitational-wave data analysis libraries
The LALSuite data analysis libraries, written in C, implement key routines critical to the successful detection of gravitational waves, such as the template waveforms describing the merger of two black holes or two neutron stars.

The cosmological gravitational wave background from primordial density perturbations [PDF]
We discuss the gravitational wave background generated by primordial density perturbations evolving during the radiation era. At second-order in a perturbative expansion, density fluctuations produce gravitational waves. We calculate the power spectra of

Enhancing gravitational-wave science with machine learning [PDF]
Machine learning has emerged as a popular and powerful approach for solving problems in astrophysics. We review applications of machine learning techniques for the analysis of ground-based gravitational-wave (GW) detector data.

Bilby: A User-friendly Bayesian Inference Library for Gravitational-wave Astronomy [PDF]
Bayesian parameter estimation is fast becoming the language of gravitational-wave astronomy. It is the method by which gravitational-wave data is used to infer the sources’ astrophysical properties. We introduce a user-friendly Bayesian inference library

Oscillations in the stochastic gravitational wave background from sharp features and particle production during inflation [PDF]
We identify a characteristic pattern in the scalar-induced stochastic gravitational wave background from particle production during inflation. If particle production is sufficiently efficient, the scalar power spectrum exhibits 𝒪(1) oscillations periodic

Gravitational wave detector response in terms of spacetime Riemann curvature
Gravitational wave detectors are typically described as responding to gravitational wave metric perturbations, which are gauge-dependent and --- correspondingly --- unphysical quantities.

In this perspective, we outline that a space borne gravitational wave detector network combining LISA and Taiji can be used to measure the Hubble constant with an uncertainty less than 0.5% in ten years, compared with the network of the ground based ...

GWBENCH: a novel Fisher information package for gravitational-wave benchmarking [PDF]
We present a new Python package, gwbench, implementing the well-established Fisher information formalism as a fast and straightforward tool for the purpose of gravitational-wave benchmarking, i.e.
