When A Standard Candle Flickers
Colleen A. Wilson-Hodge, Michael L. Cherry, Wayne H. Baumgartner +27
The Crab Nebula is the only hard X-ray source in the sky that is both bright enough and steady enough to be easily used as a standard candle. As a result, it has been used as a nor…
The Final Merger of Black-Hole Binaries
Joan M. Centrella, John G. Baker, Bernard J. Kelly +1
Recent breakthroughs in the field of numerical relativity have led to dramatic progress in understanding the predictions of General Relativity for the dynamical interactions of two…
PERSEE: Experimental results on the cophased nulling bench
Julien Lozi, Frédéric Cassaing, Jean-Michel Le Duigou +15
Nulling interferometry is still a promising method to characterize spectra of exoplanets. One of the main issues is to cophase at a nanometric level each arm despite satellite dist…
Improved Time-Domain Accuracy Standards for Model Gravitational Waveforms
Lee Lindblom, John G. Baker, Benjamin J. Owen
Model gravitational waveforms must be accurate enough to be useful for detection of signals and measurement of their parameters, so appropriate accuracy standards are needed. Yet t…
Comparison of 3 absolute gravimeters based on different methods for the e-MASS project
A. Louchet-Chauvet, S. Merlet, Q. Bodart +5
We report on the comparison between three absolute gravimeters that took place in April 2010 at Laboratoire National de Métrologie et d'Essais. The three instruments (FG5#209 from…
Merging and Clustering of the Swift BAT AGN Sample
Michael Koss, Richard Mushotzky, Sylvain Veilleux +1
We discuss the merger rate, close galaxy environment, and clustering on scales up to a Mpc of the SWIFT BAT hard X-ray sample of nearby (z<0.05), moderate-luminosity active galacti…
