Degeneracies in Sky Localisation Determination from a Spinning Coalescing Binary through Gravitational Wave Observations: a Markov-Chain Monte-Carlo Analysis for two Detectors

V. Raymond, M. V. van der Sluys, I. Mandel +3

Gravitational-wave signals from inspirals of binary compact objects (black holes and neutron stars) are primary targets of the ongoing searches by ground-based gravitational-wave i…

Massive Black Hole Binary Inspirals: Results from the LISA Parameter Estimation Taskforce

K. G. Arun, Stas Babak, Emanuele Berti +14

The LISA Parameter Estimation (LISAPE) Taskforce was formed in September 2007 to provide the LISA Project with vetted codes, source distribution models, and results related to para…

Can we Detect Intermediate Mass Ratio Inspirals?

Ilya Mandel, Jonathan R. Gair

Gravitational waves emitted during intermediate-mass-ratio inspirals (IMRIs) of intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs) into supermassive black holes could represent a very interesti…

Parameter estimation of spinning binary inspirals using Markov-chain Monte Carlo

Marc van der Sluys, Vivien Raymond, Ilya Mandel +5

We present a Markov-chain Monte-Carlo (MCMC) technique to study the source parameters of gravitational-wave signals from the inspirals of stellar-mass compact binaries detected wit…

Improved time-frequency analysis of extreme-mass-ratio inspiral signals in mock LISA data

Jonathan R Gair, Ilya Mandel, Linqing Wen

The planned Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) is expected to detect gravitational wave signals from ~100 extreme-mass-ratio inspirals (EMRIs) of stellar-mass compact object…
