A Population of Short-duration Gamma-ray Bursts with Dwarf Host Galaxies
Anya E. Nugent, Wen-fai Fong, Cristian Castrejon +3
We present a population of 11 of the faintest ( AB mag) short gamma-ray burst (GRB) host galaxies. We model their sparse available observations using the stellar population…
Gravity Spy: Lessons Learned and a Path Forward
Michael Zevin, Corey B. Jackson, Zoheyr Doctor +23
The Gravity Spy project aims to uncover the origins of glitches, transient bursts of noise that hamper analysis of gravitational-wave data. By using both the work of citizen-scienc…
What You Don't Know Can Hurt You: Use and Abuse of Astrophysical Models in Gravitational-wave Population Analyses
April Qiu Cheng, Michael Zevin, Salvatore Vitale
One of the goals of gravitational-wave astrophysics is to infer the number and properties of the formation channels of binary black holes (BBHs); to do so, one must be able to conn…
Observational evidence for cosmological coupling of black holes and its implications for an astrophysical source of dark energy
Duncan Farrah, Kevin S. Croker, Gregory Tarlé +16
Observations have found black holes spanning ten orders of magnitude in mass across most of cosmic history. The Kerr black hole solution is however provisional as its behavior at i…
Things that might go bump in the night: Assessing structure in the binary black hole mass spectrum
Amanda M. Farah, Bruce Edelman, Michael Zevin +4
Several features in the mass spectrum of merging binary black holes (BBHs) have been identified using data from the Third Gravitational Wave Transient Catalog (GWTC-3). These featu…
