Simulations of sawtooth-wave adiabatic passage with losses

Johann Gan, M. E. Pantalon, F. Robicheaux

The results of simulations of cooling based on Sawtooth-Wave Adiabatic Passage (SWAP) are presented including the possibility of population leaking to states outside of the cycling…

Constraining axion inflation with gravitational waves across 29 decades in frequency

Peter Adshead, John T. Giblin, Mauro Pieroni +1

We demonstrate that gravitational waves generated by efficient gauge preheating after axion inflation generically contribute significantly to the effective number of relativistic d…

Constraining axion inflation with gravitational waves from preheating

Peter Adshead, John T. Giblin, Mauro Pieroni +1

We study gravitational wave production from gauge preheating in a variety of inflationary models, detailing its dependence on both the energy scale and the shape of the potential.…

An Optically Targeted Search for Gravitational Waves emitted by Core-Collapse Supernovae during the First and Second Observing Runs of Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1195

We present the results from a search for gravitational-wave transients associated with core-collapse supernovae observed within a source distance of approximately 20 Mpc during the…

Model comparison from LIGO-Virgo data on GW170817's binary components and consequences for the merger remnant

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1191

GW170817 is the very first observation of gravitational waves originating from the coalescence of two compact objects in the mass range of neutron stars, accompanied by electromagn…
