The Next Generation Global Gravitational Wave Observatory: The Science Book

Vicky Kalogera, B. S. Sathyaprakash, Matthew Bailes +88

The next generation of ground-based gravitational-wave detectors will observe coalescences of black holes and neutron stars throughout the cosmos, thousands of them with exceptiona…

First observation of isolated nuclear recoils following neutron capture for dark matter calibration

A. N. Villano, M. Fritts, N. Mast +4

Low-energy nuclear recoils (NRs) are hard to measure because they produce few e/h pairs in solids -- i.e. they have low "ionization yield". A silicon detector was exposed…

Searching for parity violation with the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA network

Katarina Martinovic, Charles Badger, Mairi Sakellariadou +1

A stochastic gravitational wave background is expected to emerge from the superposition of numerous gravitational wave sources of both astrophysical and cosmological origin. A numb…

Mapping the Gravitational-wave Sky with LISA: A Bayesian Spherical Harmonic Approach

Sharan Banagiri, Alexander Criswell, Tommy Kuan +3

The millihertz gravitational-wave frequency band is expected to contain a rich symphony of signals with sources ranging from galactic white dwarf binaries to extreme mass ratio ins…

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…
