Testing General Relativity with Low-Frequency, Space-Based Gravitational-Wave Detectors [PDF]

open access: yesLiving Reviews in Relativity, 2013
We review the tests of general relativity that will become possible with space-based gravitational-wave detectors operating in the ∼ 10^{-5} – 1 Hz low-frequency band.

The string soundscape at gravitational wave detectors

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2018
We argue that gravitational wave signals due to collisions of ultra-relativistic bubble walls may be common in string theory. This occurs due to a process of post-inflationary vacuum decay via quantum tunnelling.
