Gravitational Wave Astronomy [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Astronomers rely on a multiplicity of observational perspectives in order to infer the nature of the Universe. Progress in astronomy has historically been associated with new or improved observational perspectives. Gravitational wave detectors now under construction will provide us with a perspective on the Universe fundamentally different from any we ...

A High-Finesse Suspended Interferometric Sensor for Macroscopic Quantum Mechanics with Femtometre Sensitivity

open access: yesSensors
We present an interferometric sensor for investigating macroscopic quantum mechanics on a table-top scale. The sensor consists of a pair of suspended optical cavities with finesse over 350,000 comprising 10 g fused silica mirrors.

Nuclear Physics with Gravitational Waves from Neutron Stars Disrupted by Black Holes

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
Gravitational waves from neutron star–black hole (NSBH) mergers that undergo tidal disruption provide a potential avenue to study the equation of state of neutron stars and hence the behavior of matter at its most extreme densities.

Parallelized inference for gravitational-wave astronomy [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical 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. The science enabled by these inferences comes with a computational cost that can limit the questions we are ...

Discovery and Initial Investigation of a New Low Surface Brightness Planetary Nebula Candidate at High Galactic Latitude

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Planetary nebulae represent a late evolutionary phase of low‐ to intermediate‐mass stars. In this article, we present the serendipitous discovery of a previously unknown, faint potential Galactic planetary nebula (PN) in the constellation Camelopardalis, identified during a survey‐inspection, aiming at the detection of dwarf companions of the ...

Precision mRNA Delivery via Ultrasound‐Controlled Release Perfluorocarbon Emulsions: An Innovative Ultrasound Theranostic Strategy with 19F MRI Feasibility

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
A key challenge in advancing messenger RNA (mRNA) therapeutics in cardiovascular diseases lies in achieving controlled release at the precise site within the vasculature. This study presents the development of perfluorocarbon nanodroplets with exceptional theranostic potential, enabling real‐time tracking through ultrasound and fluorine‐19 (19F ...

Gravitational Waves and Time-Domain Astronomy [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2011
AbstractThe 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 these triggers, using radio, optical, and high energy telescopes, promises exciting ...

Determining impact angle from the spatial distribution of shock metamorphism: A case study of the Gosses Bluff (Tnorala) impact structure, Australia

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The majority of planetary impacts occur at oblique angles. Impact structures on Earth are commonly eroded or buried, rendering the identification of the direction and angle of impact—using methods such as asymmetries in ejecta distribution, surface topographic expression, central uplift structure, and geophysical anomalies—challenging. In this
