Gravitational wave astronomy [PDF]
Classical and Quantum Gravity, 1999 The first decade of the new millenium should see the first direct detections of gravitational waves. This will be a milestone for fundamental physics and it will open the new observational science of gravitational wave astronomy.

Gravitational Waves and Time Domain Astronomy [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2011 The gravitational wave window onto the universe will open in roughly five years, when Advanced LIGO and Virgo achieve the first detections of high frequency gravitational waves, most likely coming from compact binary mergers. Electromagnetic follow-up of

Parallelized Inference for Gravitational-Wave Astronomy [PDF]
Physical Review D, 2019 Bayesian inference is the workhorse of gravitational-wave astronomy, for example, determining the mass and spins of merging black holes, revealing the neutron star equation of state, and unveiling the population properties of compact binaries.

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 ...

No tension between assembly models of super massive black hole binaries and pulsar observations
Nature Communications, 2018 Pulsar timing arrays enable the search for the isotropic gravitational-wave (GW) background originating from super massive black hole binary populations, but impose a stringent upper limit on the GW characteristic amplitude.

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 ...

Testing strong gravity with gravitational waves and Love numbers [PDF]
, 2017 The LIGO observation of GW150914 has inaugurated the gravitational-wave astronomy era and the possibility of testing gravity in extreme regimes. While distorted black holes are the most convincing sources of gravitational waves, similar signals might be ...
