High accuracy simulations of Kerr tails: coordinate dependence and higher multipoles
Manuel Tiglio, Lawrence Kidder, Saul Teukolsky
We investigate the late time behavior of a scalar field on a fixed Kerr background using a 2+1 dimensional pseudospectral evolution code. We compare evolutions of pure axisymmetric…
Using Full Information When Computing Modes of Post-Newtonian Waveforms From Inspiralling Compact Binaries in Circular Orbit
Lawrence E. Kidder
The increasing sophistication and accuracy of numerical simulations of compact binaries (especially binary black holes) presents the opportunity to test the regime in which post-Ne…
Numerical Simulations of Oscillating Soliton Stars: Excited States in Spherical Symmetry and Ground State Evolutions in 3D
Jayashree Balakrishna, Ruxandra Bondarescu, Gregory Daues +1
Excited state soliton stars are studied numerically for the first time. The stability of spherically symmetric S-branch excited state oscillatons under radial perturbations is inve…
Finite Mirror Effects in Advanced Interferometric Gravitational Wave Detectors
Andrew P. Lundgren, Ruxandra Bondarescu, David Tsang +1
Thermal noise is expected to be the dominant source of noise in the most sensitive frequency band of second generation ground based gravitational wave detectors. Reshaping the beam…
Can Gravity Probe B usefully constrain torsion gravity theories?
Eanna E. Flanagan, Eran Rosenthal
In most theories of gravity involving torsion, the source for torsion is the intrinsic spin of matter. Since the spins of fermions are normally randomly oriented in macroscopic bod…
A generalization of Ryan's theorem: probing tidal coupling with gravitational waves from nearly circular, nearly equatorial, extreme-mass-ratio inspirals
Chao Li, Geoffrey Lovelace
Extreme-mass-ratio inspirals (EMRIs) and intermediate-mass-ratio inspirals (IMRIs)--binaries in which a stellar-mass object spirals into a massive black hole or other massive, comp…
