Exceptional Points and Resonance in Black Hole Ringdown

Rodrigo Panosso Macedo, Takuya Katagiri, Kei-ichiro Kubota +1

We propose an exceptional-point (EP) framework for black-hole ringdown beyond the standard quasinormal-mode (QNM) paradigm. It provides a first-principles characterization of the r…

GW230814: investigation of a loud gravitational-wave signal observed with a single detector

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, The Virgo Collaboration, The Kagra Collaboration +1783

GW230814, detected by the LIGO Livingston observatory with a signal-to-noise ratio of 42.4, represents the loudest gravitational-wave signal in the GWTC-4.0 catalog. Its source is…

Resonance in black hole ringdown: Benchmarking quasinormal mode excitation and extraction

Kei-ichiro Kubota, Hayato Motohashi

We investigate how resonant excitation near exceptional points manifests in Kerr black hole ringdown waveforms and examine its extraction. Using waveforms generated by localized in…

GWTC-4.0: Methods for Identifying and Characterizing Gravitational-wave Transients

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1809

The Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog (GWTC) is a collection of candidate gravitational-wave transient signals identified and characterized by the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA Collaboration…

Analyzing black-hole ringdowns with orthonormal modes

Soichiro Morisaki, Hayato Motohashi, Motoki Suzuki +1

The ringdown signal following a black hole (BH) merger can be modeled as a superposition of BH quasinormal modes (QNMs), offering a clean setup for testing gravitational theories.…

An analytical joint prior for effective spins for inference on the spin distribution of binary black holes

Masaki Iwaya, Kazuya Kobayashi, Soichiro Morisaki +2

We derive an analytical form of the joint prior of effective spin parameters, and , assuming an isotropic and uniform-in-magnitude spin distribution.…
