GUEST: Gravitational Universe Exploration with Satellite Tracking. A passive satellite laser-ranging mission for the dark gravitational Universe
Diego Blas, Aurélien Hees, F. Javier Atapuerca +78
GUEST is a space mission concept whose central objective is the detection of gravitational waves (GWs) in the microhertz band -- a physics-rich frequency window that no other prese…
The Doppler boosted LISA response to gravitational waves
Tom van der Steen, Henri Inchauspé, Thomas Hertog +1
Future space-based gravitational wave observatories like LISA, TianQin and Taji are expected to detect massive black hole binaries (MBHBs) with high signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs),…
Discriminating scalar ultralight dark matter from quasi-monochromatic gravitational waves in LISA
Jordan Gué, Peter Wolf, Aurélien Hees
A scalar ultralight dark matter (ULDM) candidate would induce oscillatory motion of freely falling test masses via its coupling to Standard Model fields. Such oscillations would cr…
LISA science ground segment conventions
Quentin Baghi, Stanislas Babak, Leor Barack +22
This document sets out the conventions used for data simulations, waveforms, and analysis pipelines within the Distributed Data Processing Centre (DDPC) of the Laser Interferometer…
Improved constraints on modified Newtonian gravity from Cassini radio tracking data
R. S. Park, A. Hees, B. Famaey +2
We report an updated constraint on the Solar System quadrupole parameter , which encodes the external field effect predicted by modified gravity versions of the modified Newto…
NovaMoon: A Strategic Lunar Reference Station for Positioning, Timing, and Largely Enhanced Science in the Earth-Moon System
Serena Molli, Agnès Fienga, Pascale Defraigne +82
The renewed interest in lunar exploration and the development of future lunar communication and navigation services highlight the need for a precise, stable, and interoperable geod…
