Confronting general relativity with principal component analysis: Simulations and results from GWTC-3 events

Parthapratim Mahapatra, Sayantani Datta, Ish Gupta +10

We present a comprehensive assessment of multiparameter tests of general relativity (GR) in the inspiral regime of compact binary coalescences using principal component analysis (P…

TESLA-X: An effective method to search for sub-threshold lensed gravitational waves with a targeted population model

Alvin K. Y. Li, Juno C. L. Chan, Heather Fong +3

Strong gravitational lensing can produce copies of gravitational-wave signals from the same source with the same waveform morphologies but different amplitudes and arrival times. S…

Model-independent search for anisotropies in stochastic gravitational-wave backgrounds and application to LIGO-Virgo's first three observing Runs

Liting Xiao, Arianna I. Renzini, Alan J. Weinstein

A stochastic gravitational-wave (GW) background consists of a large number of weak, independent and uncorrelated events of astrophysical or cosmological origin. The GW power on the…

Investigation of the effects of non-Gaussian noise transients and their mitigation in parameterized gravitational-wave tests of general relativity

Jack Y. L. Kwok, Rico K. L. Lo, Alan J. Weinstein +1

The detection of gravitational waves from compact binary coalescence by Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo provides an opportunity to study the strong-field, highly relativistic regi…

LIGO Detector Characterization in the Second and Third Observing Runs

D. Davis, J. S. Areeda, B. K. Berger +284

The characterization of the Advanced LIGO detectors in the second and third observing runs has increased the sensitivity of the instruments, allowing for a higher number of detecta…
