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…
Hamiltonian formalism, master functions and Darboux transformations for perturbed (interiors and exteriors of) nonrotating black holes
Michele Lenzi, Guillermo A. Mena Marugán, Andrés MÃnguez-Sánchez +1
Motivated by their relevance to the interior of nonrotating black holes, classical and quantum Kantowski-Sachs cosmologies have recently attracted increasing attention. This intere…
Waveform Modelling for the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna
LISA Consortium Waveform Working Group, Niayesh Afshordi, Sarp Akçay +144
LISA, the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna, will usher in a new era in gravitational-wave astronomy. As the first anticipated space-based gravitational-wave detector, it will exp…
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…
Master variables and Darboux symmetry for axial perturbations of the exterior and interior of black hole spacetimes
Michele Lenzi, Guillermo A. Mena Marugán, Andrés MÃnguez-Sánchez +1
Recent efforts have shown that Kantowski-Sachs spacetime provides a useful framework for analyzing perturbations inside a Schwarzschild black hole (BH). In these studies, the adopt…
Asymptotics and Universality in Black Holes: from the quasinormal Weyl's law to the binary merger waveform
José Luis Jaramillo, Lamis Al Sheikh, Jérémy Besson +7
Current state-of-the-art approaches to black hole (BH) dynamics, encompassing several effective approximation schemes, offer a remarkable control of the quantitative aspects of str…
