No Evidence for a Dip in the Binary Black Hole Mass Spectrum

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Stellar models indicate that the core compactness of a star, which is a common proxy for its explodability in a supernova, does not increase monotonically with the star’s mass.

Solar Flare Activity, 1937–2024: Introducing the New Hemispheric Solar Flare Index (hSFI) in the Context of 2024's Major Solar Storm Events

open access: yesSpace Weather, Volume 23, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract A new daily composite of the solar flare index (SFI) and the hemispherically‐resolved versions (hSFI) are presented for 1937 to 2024. The data set confirms that the northern hemisphere (NH) dominated solar flare activity during Solar Cycles 17 to 21, but that the southern hemisphere has dominated from Solar Cycle 22 to present.

Do Both Black Holes Spin in Merging Binaries? Evidence from GWTC-4 and Astrophysical Implications

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Angular momentum transport in high-mass stars is commonly modeled by extrapolating the behavior of better-observed low-mass stars. According to the conventional picture, the cores of most black hole progenitors lose almost all of their angular momentum ...

Analysis of the effect of coupling coefficients on the slope of PDH-locked frequency discriminator

open access: yesAIP Advances
The effects of the coupling coefficients on the reflected field and the error signal under various misalignments and near-axis conditions are analyzed, and some basic features of the error signal are investigated.

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 ...

Improved source localization with LIGO India

open access: yes, 2012
A global network of advanced gravitational wave interferometric detectors is under construction. These detectors will offer an order of magnitude improvement in sensitivity over the initial detectors and will usher in the era of gravitational wave ...
