Tests of General Relativity with Gravitational-Wave Observations using a Flexible--Theory-Independent Method
Ajit Kumar Mehta, Alessandra Buonanno, Roberto Cotesta +3
We perform tests of General Relativity (GR) with gravitational waves (GWs) from the inspiral stage of compact binaries using a theory-independent framework, which adds generic phas…
Gravitational-Wave Constraints on an Effective Field-Theory Extension of General Relativity
Noah Sennett, Richard Brito, Alessandra Buonanno +2
Gravitational-wave observations of coalescing binary systems allow for novel tests of the strong-field regime of gravity. Using data from the Gravitational Wave Open Science Center…
Theory-agnostic framework for dynamical scalarization of compact binaries
Mohammed Khalil, Noah Sennett, Jan Steinhoff +1
Gravitational wave observations can provide unprecedented insight into the fundamental nature of gravity and allow for novel tests of modifications to General Relativity. One propo…
All-sky search for short gravitational-wave bursts in the second Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo run
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1186
We present the results of a search for short-duration gravitational-wave transients in the data from the second observing run of Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo. We search for gra…
Hairy binary black holes in Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton theory and their effective-one-body description
Mohammed Khalil, Noah Sennett, Jan Steinhoff +2
In General Relativity and many modified theories of gravity, isolated black holes (BHs) cannot source massless scalar fields. Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton (EMd) theory is an exception:…
An effective action model of dynamically scalarizing binary neutron stars
Noah Sennett, Lijing Shao, Jan Steinhoff
Gravitational waves can be used to test general relativity (GR) in the highly dynamical strong-field regime. Scalar-tensor theories of gravity are natural alternatives to GR that c…
