Connecting Numerical Relativity and Data Analysis of Gravitational Wave Detectors

, 2015
Gravitational waves deliver information in exquisite detail about astrophysical phenomena, among them the collision of two black holes, a system completely invisible to the eyes of electromagnetic telescopes.

Gravitational-wave physics and astronomy in the 2020s and 2030s

Nature Reviews Physics, 2021
The 100 years since the publication of Albert Einstein’s theory of general relativity saw significant development of the understanding of the theory, the identification of potential astrophysical sources of sufficiently strong gravitational waves and ...

Geometrically Templated, Ultra‐Lightweight and High Strength Soap Films from Lyotropic Liquid Crystalline Graphene Oxide/Polymer Composites

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Shellular materials form spontaneously by dip coating the primitive triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) wireframe in an aqueous solution of lyotropic liquid crystalline graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets mixed with polymers. Regulated by surface tension, GO nanosheets align on the polymer soap film as the stress builds up during drying.

Exploring the Link between Fast Radio Burst and Binary Neutron Star Origins with Spaceborne Gravitational Wave Observations

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
The origin of repeating fast radio bursts (rFRBs) is an open question, with observations suggesting that at least some are associated with old stellar populations. It has been proposed that some rFRBs may be produced by interactions of the binary neutron

Kilonova-Targeting Lightcurve Classification for Wide Field Survey Telescope

Universe, 2023
With the enhancement of the sensitivity of gravitational wave (GW) detectors and capabilities of large survey facilities, such as the Vera Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) and the 2.5 m Wide Field Survey Telescope (WFST), we now ...

Detecting transient gravitational waves in non-Gaussian noise with partially redundant analysis methods [PDF]

, 2012
There is a broad class of astrophysical sources that produce detectable, transient, gravitational waves. Some searches for transient gravitational waves are tailored to known features of these sources.

Liquid Metals as Initiators of Free‐Radical Polymerization of Hydrogels: A Perspective

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Gallium‐based liquid metals initiate free radical polymerization to form hydrogels without the use of toxic molecular initiators. In addition to initiating polymerization, they can act as crosslinkers, yielding softer, more extensible, and tougher hydrogels than those formed with conventional initiators.

On the Cosmic Variance of the Merger Rate Density of Binary Neutron Stars

The Astrophysical Journal
The cosmic variance on the star formation history may lead to bias in the merger rate density estimation of binary neutron star (BNS) mergers by compact binary population synthesis. In this paper, we take advantage of the large box size of the Millennium

The Enhanced Population of Extreme Mass-ratio Inspirals in the LISA Band from Supermassive Black Hole Binaries

The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
Extreme mass-ratio inspirals (EMRIs) take place when a stellar-mass black hole (BH) merges with a supermassive BH (SMBH). The gravitational-wave emission from such an event is expected to be detectable by the future Laser Interferometer Space Antenna ...
