Phase consistency test to identify type II strongly lensed gravitational wave signals using a single event

Kelsie Taylor, Derek Davis, Rico K. L. Lo

For gravitationally lensed type II signals, the phase of the dominant (2, 2) mode and the higher order (3, 3) mode is offset by , or roughly -0.26 radians. Using this, we de…

Identifying strongly lensed gravitational waves through their phase consistency

Jose María Ezquiaga, Wayne Hu, Rico K. L. Lo

Strongly lensed gravitational waves (GWs) from binary coalescence manifest as repeated chirps from the original merger. At the detectors, the phase of the lensed GWs and its arriva…

Recipes for computing radiation from a Kerr black hole using a generalized Sasaki-Nakamura formalism: Homogeneous solutions

Rico K. L. Lo

Central to black hole perturbation theory calculations is the Teukolsky equation that governs the propagation and the generation of radiation emitted by Kerr black holes. However,…

Follow-up Analyses to the O3 LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA Lensing Searches

Justin Janquart, Mick Wright, Srashti Goyal +28

Along their path from source to observer, gravitational waves may be gravitationally lensed by massive objects. This results in distortions of the observed signal which can be used…

denmarf: a Python package for density estimation using masked autoregressive flow

Rico K. L. Lo

Masked autoregressive flow (MAF) is a state-of-the-art non-parametric density estimation technique. It is based on the idea (known as a normalizing flow) that a simple base probabi…

Using overlap of sky localization probability maps for filtering potentially lensed pairs of gravitational-wave signals

Henry W. Y. Wong, Lok W. L. Chan, Isaac C. F. Wong +2

Strong gravitational lensing creates multiple images of a gravitational wave transient. The current state-of-the-art method for identifying such lensing events is a computationally…
