Constraints on Einstein-dilaton-Gauss-Bonnet gravity from Black Hole-Neutron Star Gravitational Wave Events

Zhenwei Lyu, Nan Jiang, Kent Yagi

Recent gravitational wave observations allow us to probe gravity in the strong and dynamical field regime. In this paper, we focus on testing Einstein-dilaton Gauss-Bonnet gravity…

Probing modified gravitational-wave propagation through tidal measurements of binary neutron star mergers

Nan Jiang, Kent Yagi

Gravitational-wave sources can serve as standard sirens to probe cosmology by measuring their luminosity distance and redshift. Such standard sirens are also useful to probe theori…

Analytic I-Love-C relations for realistic neutron stars

Nan Jiang, Kent Yagi

Recent observations of neutron stars (NS) with radio, X-rays and gravitational waves have begun to constrain the equation of state (EoS) for nuclear matter beyond the nuclear satur…

Improved Analytic Modeling of Neutron Star Interiors

Nan Jiang, Kent Yagi

Studies of neutron stars are extremely timely given the recent detection of gravitational waves from a binary neutron star merger GW170817, and an International Space Station paylo…

Stability Bounds on Compact Astrophysical Objects from Information-Entropic Measure

Marcelo Gleiser, Nan Jiang

We obtain bounds on the stability of various self-gravitating astrophysical objects using a new measure of shape complexity known as configurational entropy. We apply the method to…
