Observing Gravitational Waves from Core-Collapse Supernovae in the Advanced Detector Era

S. E. Gossan, P. Sutton, A. Stuver +3

The next galactic core-collapse supernova (CCSN) has already exploded, and its electromagnetic (EM) waves, neutrinos, and gravitational waves (GWs) may arrive at any moment. We pre…

Distinguishing compact binary population synthesis models using gravitational-wave observations of coalescing binary black holes

Simon Stevenson, Frank Ohme, Stephen Fairhurst

The coalescence of compact binaries containing neutron stars or black holes is one of the most promising signals for advanced ground-based laser interferometer gravitational-wave d…

Measuring intermediate mass black hole binaries with advanced gravitational wave detectors

John Veitch, Michael Pürrer, Ilya Mandel

We perform a systematic study to explore the accuracy with which the parameters of intermediate-mass black-hole binary systems can be measured from their gravitational wave (GW) si…

Neutron stars versus black holes: probing the mass gap with LIGO/Virgo

Tyson B. Littenberg, Benjamin Farr, Scott Coughlin +2

Inspirals and mergers of black hole (BHs) and/or neutron star (NSs) binaries are expected to be abundant sources for ground-based gravitational-wave (GW) detectors. We assess the c…

Far-infrared observations of an unbiased sample of gamma-ray burst host galaxies

Saul A. Kohn, Michal J. Michałowski, Nathan Bourne +19

Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are the most energetic phenomena in the Universe; believed to result from the collapse and subsequent explosion of massive stars. Even though it has profoun…
