Single-event likelihood of star cluster properties with LIGO-Virgo-Kagra binary black hole observations
Ken K. Y. Ng, Konstantinos Kritos, Andrea Antonelli +2
The population of binary black hole mergers observed in gravitational waves, together with astrophysical simulations, can help us to understand the properties of the progenitors an…
Classifying the generation and formation channels of individual LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA observations from dynamically formed binaries
Andrea Antonelli, Konstantinos Kritos, Ken K. Y. Ng +2
We address two important questions in gravitational-wave astronomy. What is the astrophysical formation scenario leading to black-hole binary mergers? Did some of the merging black…
Accurate waveform models for gravitational-wave astrophysics: synergetic approaches from analytical relativity
Andrea Antonelli
Gravitational-wave (GW) astrophysics is a field in full blossom. Since the landmark detection of GWs from a binary black hole on September 14th 2015, several compact-object binarie…
The impact of confusion noise on golden binary neutron-star events in next-generation terrestrial observatories
Luca Reali, Andrea Antonelli, Roberto Cotesta +4
Next-generation terrestrial gravitational-wave observatories will detect signals from compact binary coalescences every year. These signals can last for sever…
Constraining the evolution of Newton's constant with slow inspirals observed from spaceborne gravitational-wave detectors
R. Barbieri, S. Savastano, L. Speri +5
Spaceborne gravitational-wave (GW) detectors observing at milli-Hz and deci-Hz frequencies are expected to detect large numbers of quasi-monochromatic signals. The first and second…
Probing Accretion Physics with Gravitational Waves
Lorenzo Speri, Andrea Antonelli, Laura Sberna +4
Gravitational-wave observations of extreme mass ratio inspirals (EMRIs) offer the opportunity to probe the environments of active galactic nuclei (AGN) through the torques that acc…
A Fisher matrix for gravitational-wave population inference
Jonathan R. Gair, Andrea Antonelli, Riccardo Barbieri
We derive a Fisher matrix for the parameters characterising a population of gravitational-wave events. This provides a guide to the precision with which population parameters can b…
The impact of relativistic corrections on the detectability of dark-matter spikes with gravitational waves
Nicholas Speeney, Andrea Antonelli, Vishal Baibhav +1
Black holes located within a dark matter cloud can create overdensity regions known as dark matter spikes. The presence of spikes modifies the gravitational-wave signals from binar…
Noisy neighbours: inference biases from overlapping gravitational-wave signals
Andrea Antonelli, Ollie Burke, Jonathan R. Gair
Understanding and dealing with inference biases in gravitational-wave (GW) parameter estimation when a plethora of signals are present in the data is one of the key challenges for…
Gravitational spin-orbit and aligned spin-spin couplings through third-subleading post-Newtonian orders
Andrea Antonelli, Chris Kavanagh, Mohammed Khalil +2
The study of scattering encounters continues to provide new insights into the general relativistic two-body problem. The local-in-time conservative dynamics of an aligned-spin bina…
Gravitational spin-orbit coupling through third-subleading post-Newtonian order: from first-order self-force to arbitrary mass ratios
Andrea Antonelli, Chris Kavanagh, Mohammed Khalil +2
Exploiting simple yet remarkable properties of relativistic gravitational scattering, we use first-order self-force (linear-in-mass-ratio) results to obtain arbitrary-mass-ratio re…
Quasi-circular inspirals and plunges from non-spinning effective-one-body Hamiltonians with gravitational self-force information
Andrea Antonelli, Maarten van de Meent, Alessandra Buonanno +2
The self-force program aims at accurately modeling relativistic two-body systems with a small mass ratio (SMR). In the context of the effective-one-body (EOB) framework, current re…
Energetics of two-body Hamiltonians in post-Minkowskian gravity
Andrea Antonelli, Alessandra Buonanno, Jan Steinhoff +2
Advanced methods for computing perturbative, quantum-gravitational scattering amplitudes show great promise for improving our knowledge of classical gravitational dynamics. This is…
An Analysis of Anomaly Cancellation for Theories in D=10
Andrea Antonelli
We prove that the swampland for D=10 N=1 SUGRA coupled to D=10 N=1 SYM is only populated by U(1)^496 and E_8 x U(1)^248. With this goal in mind, we review the anomalies for classic…
