Search for binary black hole mergers in the third observing run of Advanced LIGO-Virgo using coherent WaveBurst enhanced with machine learning

T. Mishra, B. O'Brien, M. Szczepanczyk +8

In this work, we use the coherent WaveBurst (cWB) pipeline enhanced with machine learning (ML) to search for binary black hole (BBH) mergers in the Advanced LIGO-Virgo strain data…

The search of higher multipole radiation in gravitational waves from compact binary coalescences by a minimally-modelled pipeline

O. Halim, G. Vedovato, E. Milotti +13

The coherent WaveBurst (cWB) pipeline implements a minimally-modelled search to find a coherent response in the network of gravitational wave detectors of the LIGO-Virgo Collaborat…

Minimally-modeled search of higher multipole gravitational-wave radiation in compact binary coalescence

G. Vedovato, E. Milotti, G. A. Prodi +13

As the Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo interferometers, soon to be joined by the KAGRA interferometer, increase their sensitivity, they detect an ever-larger number of gravitation…

Detection of LIGO-Virgo binary black holes in the pair-instability mass gap

Brendan O'Brien, Marek Szczepanczyk, V. Gayathri +5

By probing the population of binary black hole (BBH) mergers detected by LIGO-Virgo, we can infer properties about the underlying black hole formation channels. A mechanism known a…

Optimization of model independent gravitational wave search using machine learning

Tanmaya Mishra, Brendan O'Brien, V. Gayathri +4

The Coherent WaveBurst (cWB) search algorithm identifies generic gravitational wave (GW) signals in the LIGO-Virgo strain data. We propose a machine learning (ML) method to optimiz…

Hubble Constant Measurement with GW190521 as an Eccentric Black Hole Merger

V. Gayathri, J. Healy, J. Lange +7

Gravitational wave observations can be used to accurately measure the Hubble constant and could help understand the present discrepancy between constraints from Type Ia super…

Observing an intermediate mass black hole GW190521 with minimal assumptions

Marek Szczepanczyk, Sergey Klimenko, Brendan O'Brien +10

On May 21, 2019 Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo detectors observed a gravitational-wave transient GW190521, the heaviest binary black-hole merger detected to date with the remnant…

Eccentricity Estimate for Black Hole Mergers with Numerical Relativity Simulations

V. Gayathri, J. Healy, J. Lange +7

The origin of black hole mergers discovered by the LIGO and Virgo gravitational-wave observatories is currently unknown. GW190521 is the heaviest black hole merger detected so far.…

Measurement of sub-dominant harmonic modes for gravitational wave emission from a population of binary black holes

Brendan D. O'Brien, Carlos F. Da Silva Costa, Sergey Klimenko

Measurements of multiple harmonic modes in the gravitational wave signals from binary black hole events could provide an accurate test of general relativity, however they have neve…
