Inferring Jet Physics from Neutron Star–Black Hole Mergers with Gravitational Waves
The Astrophysical JournalNeutron 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 ...

Lighthouses of Gravitational Wave Astronomy [PDF]
, 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 ...

The implications of precise timekeeping of Doppler gravitational wave observations [PDF]
, 1982 Gravitational radiation from galactic and extragalactic astrophysical sources will induce spatial strains in the solar system, strains which can be measured directly by the Doppler radio link to distant spacecraft.

Developing Tools for Multimessenger Gravitational Wave Astronomy
, 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.

Examining the Gap in the Chirp Mass Distribution of Binary Black Holes
The Astrophysical JournalThe mass distribution of binary black holes inferred from gravitational-wave measurements is expected to shed light on their formation mechanisms. An emerging structure in the mass distribution indicates the presence of multiple peaks around chirp masses

A Search for Extra Polarizations Using a Gaussian Process in Gravitational-wave Transient Catalog 3
The Astrophysical JournalGeneral relativity predicts that gravitational waves are described by two polarization states: the plus + state and cross × state. However, alternate theories of gravity allow up to six polarizations.
