Gravitational-wave astronomy with an uncertain noise power spectral density [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2020
In order to extract information about the properties of compact binaries, we must estimate the noise power spectral density of gravitational-wave data, which depends on the properties of the gravitational-wave detector. In practice, it is not possible to

Multiband gravitational-wave astronomy: Observing binary inspirals with a decihertz detector, B-DECIGO [PDF]

open access: yesProgress of Theoretical and Experimental Physics, 2018
An evolving Japanese gravitational-wave (GW) mission at deci-Hz band: B-DECIGO (DECihertz laser Interferometer Gravitational wave Observatory) will enable us to detect GW150914-like binary black-holes, GW170817-like binary neutron-stars, and the ...

Attitude-Orbit Coupled Control of Gravitational Wave Detection Spacecraft with Communication Delays

open access: yesSensors, 2023
In order to meet the position and attitude requirements of spacecrafts and test masses for gravitational-wave detection missions, the attitude-orbit coordination control of multiple spacecrafts and test masses is studied.

Quantum-Enhanced Advanced LIGO Detectors in the Era of Gravitational-Wave Astronomy.

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2019
The Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory (LIGO) has been directly detecting gravitational waves from compact binary mergers since 2015. We report on the first use of squeezed vacuum states in the direct measurement of gravitational waves ...

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

open access: yes, 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 ...

A Magnetospheric Dichotomy for Pulsars with Extreme Inclinations

open access: yesUniverse, 2021
In this work, we expand on a comment by Lyne et al. (2017), that intermittent pulsars tend to congregate near a stripe in the logarithmic period versus period-derivative diagram.

Dark Energy in Light of Multi-Messenger Gravitational-Wave Astronomy [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2018
Gravitational waves (GWs) provide a new tool to probe the nature of dark energy (DE) and the fundamental properties of gravity. We review the different ways in which GWs can be used to test gravity and models for late-time cosmic acceleration. Lagrangian-

Evidence for a Correlation between Binary Black Hole Mass Ratio and Black Hole Spins

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The astrophysical origins of the binary black hole systems seen with gravitational waves are still not well understood. However, features in the distribution of black hole masses, spins, redshifts, and eccentricities provide clues into how these systems ...
