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…

Constraining the spin parameter of near-extremal black holes using LISA
Ollie Burke, Jonathan R. Gair, Joan Simón +1
We describe a model that generates first order adiabatic EMRI waveforms for quasi-circular equatorial inspirals of compact objects into rapidly rotating (near-extremal) black holes…

Transition from Inspiral to Plunge: A Complete Near-Extremal Trajectory and Associated Waveform
Ollie Burke, Jonathan R. Gair, Joan Simón
We extend the Ori and Thorne (OT) procedure to compute the transition from an adiabatic inspiral into a geodesic plunge for any spin, with emphasis on near-extremal ones. Our analy…
