Assessing the waveform systematics from parameter estimation to population inference with eccentricity
Muhammad Zeeshan, Richard O'Shaughnessy, Natalie Malagon +1
While masses and spins are routinely used to constrain compact binary formation channels, eccentricity provides an additional and potentially powerful diagnostic of binary origin,…
Population Properties of Binary Black Holes with Eccentricity
Muhammad Zeeshan, Richard O'Shaughnessy, Natalie Malagon
The development of eccentric waveform models enables us to explore the growing catalog of gravitational-wave events with measurable eccentricity. This opens new opportunities to ga…
COOL-LAMPS IX: A Rare Duo of Quasars Each Lensed by a Single Massive Galaxy Cluster
Erik Solhaug, Michael D. Gladders, Andi M. Kisare +20
Wide-separation lensed quasars (WSLQs) are rare systems that arise from the chance alignment of two objects: a galaxy cluster and a background quasar. After two decades, only seven…
Assessing the imprint of eccentricity in GW signatures using two independent waveform models
Natalie Malagon, Richard O'Shaughnessy
The gravitational wave signal from merging compact binaries encodes information about their orbital and intrinsic properties. Over the last few years, state-of-the-art waveform mod…
