A Proposed Search for the Detection of Gravitational Waves from Eccentric Binary Black Holes

Vaibhav Tiwari, Sergey Klimenko, Nelson Christensen +14

Most of compact binary systems are expected to circularize before the frequency of emitted gravitational waves (GWs) enters the sensitivity band of the ground based interferometric…

Impact of gravitational radiation higher order modes on single aligned-spin gravitational wave searches for binary black holes

Juan Calderón Bustillo, Sascha Husa, Alicia M. Sintes +1

Current template-based gravitational wave searches for compact binary coalescences (CBC) use waveform models that neglect the higher order modes content of the gravitational radiat…

Some remarks on an old problem of radiation and gravity

C. S. Unnikrishnan, George T. Gillies

The assumed universality of the equivalence principle suggests that a particle in a gravitational field has identical physics to one in an accelerated frame. Yet, energy considerat…

Quantum Gravito-Optics: A Light Route from Semiclassical Gravity to Quantum Gravity

C. S. Unnikrishnan, George T. Gillies

Quantum gravity remains an elusive theory, in spite of our thorough understanding of the quantum theory and the general theory of relativity separately, presumably due to the lack…
