Search for Eccentric Black Hole Coalescences during the Third Observing Run of LIGO and Virgo
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1772
Despite the growing number of confident binary black hole coalescences observed through gravitational waves so far, the astrophysical origin of these binaries remains uncertain. Or…
Rotational and radio emission properties of PSR J0738-4042 over half a century
M. E. Lower, S. Johnston, A. Karastergiou +14
We present a comprehensive study of the rotational and emission properties of PSR J07384042 using a combination of observations taken by the Deep Space Network, Hartebeesthoek,…
A new small glitch in Vela discovered with a hidden Markov model
L. Dunn, A. Melatos, C. M. Espinoza +2
A striking feature of the Vela pulsar (PSR J08354510) is that it undergoes sudden increases in its spin frequency, known as glitches, with a fractional amplitude on the order of…
The 2022 high-energy outburst and radio disappearing act of the magnetar 1E 1547.0-5408
Marcus E. Lower, George Younes, Paul Scholz +19
We report the radio and high-energy properties of a new outburst from the radio-loud magnetar 1E 1547.05408. Following the detection of a short burst from the source with Swift-…
Search for subsolar-mass black hole binaries in the second part of Advanced LIGO's and Advanced Virgo's third observing run
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1702
We describe a search for gravitational waves from compact binaries with at least one component with mass 0.2 -- and mass ratio in Advanced LIGO…
Search for continuous gravitational waves from HESS~J1427-608 with a hidden Markov model
Deeksha Beniwal, Patrick Clearwater, Liam Dunn +4
We present a search for continuous gravitational wave signals from an unidentified pulsar potentially powering HESS~J1427-608, a spatially unresolved TeV point source detected by t…
Model-based cross-correlation search for gravitational waves from the low-mass X-ray binary Scorpius X-1 in LIGO O3 data
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1692
We present the results of a model-based search for continuous gravitational waves from the low-mass X-ray binary Scorpius X-1 using LIGO detector data from the third observing run…
Systematic upper limits on the size of missing pulsar glitches in the first UTMOST open data release
L. Dunn, A. Melatos, S. Suvorova +7
A systematic, semi-automated search for pulsar glitches in the first UTMOST public data release is presented. The search is carried out using a hidden Markov model which incorporat…
An updated glitch rate law inferred from radio pulsars
Margaret Millhouse, Andrew Melatos, George Howitt +3
Radio pulsar glitches probe far-from-equilibrium processes involving stress accumulation and relaxation in neutron star interiors. Previous studies of glitch rates have focused on…
Effects of periodicity in observation scheduling on parameter estimation of pulsar glitches
Liam Dunn, Marcus E. Lower, Andrew Melatos
In certain pulsar timing experiments, where observations are scheduled approximately periodically (e.g. daily), timing models with significantly different frequencies (including bu…
Search for continuous gravitational waves from ten H.E.S.S. sources using a hidden Markov model
Deeksha Beniwal, Patrick Clearwater, Liam Dunn +2
Isolated neutron stars are prime targets for continuous-wave (CW) searches by ground-based gravitationalwave interferometers. Results are presented from a CW search targeting te…
Neutron Star Extreme Matter Observatory: A kilohertz-band gravitational-wave detector in the global network
K. Ackley, V. B. Adya, P. Agrawal +160
Gravitational waves from coalescing neutron stars encode information about nuclear matter at extreme densities, inaccessible by laboratory experiments. The late inspiral is influen…
Search for gravitational waves from five low mass X-ray binaries in the second Advanced LIGO observing run with an improved hidden Markov model
Hannah Middleton, Patrick Clearwater, Andrew Melatos +1
Low mass X-ray binaries are prime targets for continuous gravitational wave searches by ground-based interferometers. Results are presented from a search for five low-mass X-ray bi…
Pulsar glitch detection with a hidden Markov model
A. Melatos, L. M. Dunn, S. Suvorova +2
Pulsar timing experiments typically generate a phase-connected timing solution from a sequence of times-of-arrival (TOAs) by absolute pulse numbering, i.e. by fitting an integer nu…
