Approximate black hole binary spacetime via asymptotic matching

Bruno C. Mundim, Hiroyuki Nakano, Nicolás Yunes +3

We construct a fully analytic, general relativistic, nonspinning black hole binary spacetime that approximately solves the vacuum Einstein equations everywhere in space and time fo…

Three-Hair Relations for Rotating Stars: Nonrelativistic Limit

Leo C. Stein, Kent Yagi, Nicolas Yunes

The gravitational field outside of astrophysical black holes is completely described by their mass and spin frequency, as expressed by the no-hair theorems. These theorems assume v…

Constraints on Einstein-Æther theory and Horava gravity from binary pulsar observations

Kent Yagi, Diego Blas, Enrico Barausse +1

Binary pulsars are ideal to test the foundations of General Relativity, such as Lorentz symmetry, which requires that experiments produce the same results in all free-falling (i.e.…

Mis-Modelling in Gravitational Wave Astronomy: The Trouble With Templates

Laura Sampson, Neil Cornish, Nicolas Yunes

Waveform templates are a powerful tool for extracting and characterizing gravitational wave signals, acting as highly restrictive priors on the signal morphologies that allow us to…

Application of a Hough search for continuous gravitational waves on data from the 5th LIGO science run

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, The Virgo Collaboration, J. Aasi +876

We report on an all-sky search for periodic gravitational waves in the frequency range with the first derivative of frequency in the range $-8.9 \times 10^{-1…

Multipole Love Relations

Kent Yagi

Gravitational-wave observations in the near future may allow us to measure tidal deformabilities of neutron stars, which leads us to the understanding of physics at nuclear density…
