Finding and Using Electromagnetic Counterparts of Gravitational Wave Sources [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The principal goal of this whitepaper is not so much to demonstrate that gravitational wave detectors like LIGO and LISA will help answer many central questions in astronomy and astrophysics, but to make the case that they can help answer a far greater ...

Visualizing the Number of Existing and Future Gravitational-wave Detections from Merging Double Compact Objects

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
How many gravitational-wave observations from double compact object mergers have we seen to date? This seemingly simple question surprisingly yields a somewhat ambiguous answer that depends on the chosen data-analysis pipeline, detection threshold, and ...

Linear Toroidal‐Inertial Waves on A Differentially Rotating Sphere with Application to Helioseismology: Modeling, Forward and Inverse Problems

open access: yesMathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper develops a mathematical framework for interpreting observations of solar inertial waves in an idealized setting. Under the assumption of purely toroidal linear waves on the sphere, the stream function of the flow satisfies a fourth‐order scalar equation.

Population synthesis of gravitational wave sources

open access: yes
The simulation of gravitational wave source populations and their progenitors is an endeavor more than eighty years in the making. This is in part due to a wide variety of theoretical uncertainties that must be taken into account when describing how stellar populations evolve over cosmic time to produce double stellar remnant binaries.

A Passive Low‐Frequency, High‐Sensitivity Diamagnetic Levitation Accelerometer

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite the great potential of diamagnetic levitation accelerometers in detecting low‐frequency and weak motion, there is still a demand to further enhance their sensitivity for geophysical and microgravity applications. In this study, a straightforward structural modulating approach is presented to enhance the sensitivity of diamagnetic ...

Eccentric Features in the Gravitational-wave Phase of Dynamically Formed Black Hole Binaries

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We study the gravitational-wave (GW) phase shift arising from center-of-mass accelerations of binary black hole (BBH) mergers formed dynamically in three-body systems, where both the inner orbit of the merging binary and the outer orbit are eccentric. We

Experimental Investigation of Moisture Movement During Freeze–Thaw Cycles and Its Effect on Physical Rock Weathering in Low‐Porosity Alpine Limestone

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The progressive weakening of alpine rockwalls through subcritical cracking, driven by repeated low‐magnitude stress processes, plays a key role in alpine rock weathering. Laboratory studies using acoustic emission (AE) monitoring have shown that thermal stresses from freeze–thaw cycling induce crack propagation, with recent work highlighting ...
