Testing general relativity with amplitudes of subdominant gravitational-wave modes
Ish Gupta, Purnima Narayan, Lionel London +2
The paper introduces an improved test of general relativity that examines the amplitudes of higher-order (subdominant) gravitational-wave modes from binary black hole mergers, vali…
Optimizing searches for gravitational wave bursts using coherent WaveBurst 2G
Alessandro Martini, Andrea Miani, Marco Drago +11
The most general searches for gravitational wave transients (GWTs) rely on data analysis methods that do not assume prior knowledge of the signal waveform, direction, or arrival ti…
Search for dynamical black hole captures with Gaussian mixture modelling
Leigh Smith, Shubhanshu Tiwari, Michael Ebersold +3
Gravitational waves (GWs) are expected to originate from black holes interacting dynamically in dense astrophysical environments. In such environments, given that the velocity and…
Possible Causes of False General Relativity Violations in Gravitational Wave Observations
Anuradha Gupta, K. G. Arun, Enrico Barausse +40
General relativity (GR) has proven to be a highly successful theory of gravity since its inception. The theory has thrivingly passed numerous experimental tests, predominantly in w…
