Introduction to Gravitational Wave Astronomy [PDF]

, 2021
This chapter provides an overview of gravitational wave (GW) astronomy, providing background material that underpins the other, more specialized chapters in this handbook. It starts with a brief historical review of the development of GW astronomy, from Einstein's prediction of GWs in 1916 to the first direct detection in 2015.

Compact Binary Coalescences in the Band of Ground-based Gravitational-Wave Detectors

, 2010
As the ground-based gravitational-wave telescopes LIGO, Virgo, and GEO 600 approach the era of first detections, we review the current knowledge of the coalescence rates and the mass and spin distributions of merging neutron-star and black-hole binaries.

Gravitational wave astronomy with TianQin

Reports on Progress in Physics
Abstract The opening of the gravitational wave window has significantly enhanced our capacity to explore the Universe’s most extreme and dynamic sector. In the mHz frequency range, a diverse range of compact objects, from the most massive black holes at the farthest reaches of the Universe to the lightest white dwarfs in our cosmic ...

The damping of gravitational waves in dust

, 2008
We examine a simple model of interaction of gravitational waves with matter (primarily represented by dust). The aim is to investigate a possible damping effect on the intensity of gravitational wave when passing through media.

Science Icebreaker Activities: An Example from Gravitational Wave Astronomy [PDF]

, 2005
At the beginning of a class or meeting an icebreaker activity is often used to help loosen the group and get everyone talking. Our motivation is to develop activities that serve the purpose of an icebreaker, but are designed to enhance and supplement a ...

Gravitational Wave Astronomy [PDF]

, 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 ...
