Eccentric binary black hole surrogate models for the gravitational waveform and remnant properties: comparable mass, nonspinning case

Tousif Islam, Vijay Varma, Jackie Lodman +6

We develop new strategies to build numerical relativity surrogate models for eccentric binary black hole systems, which are expected to play an increasingly important role in curre…

Acceleration Relations in the Milky Way as Differentiators of Modified Gravity Theories

Tousif Islam, Koushik Dutta

The dynamical mass of galaxies and the Newtonian acceleration generated from the baryons have been found to be strongly correlated. This correlation is known as 'Mass-Discrepancy A…

Testing the"no-hair" nature of binary black holes using the consistency of multipolar gravitational radiation

Tousif Islam, Ajit Kumar Mehta, Abhirup Ghosh +3

Gravitational-wave (GW) observations of binary black holes offer the best probes of the relativistic, strong-field regime of gravity. Gravitational radiation, in the leading order…

Enigmatic Velocity Dispersions of Ultra-Diffuse Galaxies in Light of Modified Gravity Theories and Radial Acceleration Relation

Tousif Islam

Recent observations of anomalous line-of-sight velocity dispersions of two ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) provide a stringent test for modified gravity theories. While NGC 1052-DF2…

Modified Gravity Theories in Light of the Anomalous Velocity Dispersion of NGC1052-DF2

Tousif Islam, Koushik Dutta

Recent observations of ultra-dwarf galaxy NGC1052-DF2 started an interesting discussion between dark matter hypothesis and modified gravity theories. Reported low velocity dispersi…

Globular clusters as a probe for Weyl Conformal Gravity

Tousif Islam

Eventual flattening of velocity dispersion profiles of some galactic globular clusters in the Milky Way cannot be explained in the framework of Newtonian gravity and hence in gener…
