General-relativistic precession in a black-hole binary
Mark Hannam, Charlie Hoy, Jonathan E. Thompson +24
The general-relativistic phenomenon of spin-induced orbital precession has not yet been observed in strong-field gravity. Gravitational-wave observations of binary black holes (BBH…
Evidence for subdominant multipole moments and precession in merging black-hole-binaries from GWTC-2.1
Charlie Hoy, Cameron Mills, Stephen Fairhurst
The LIGO--Virgo--KAGRA collaborations (LVK) produced a catalogue containing gravitational-wave (GW) observations from the first half of the third GW observing run (O3a). This catal…
Understanding how fast black holes spin by analysing data from the second gravitational-wave catalogue
Charlie Hoy, Stephen Fairhurst, Mark Hannam +1
The Advanced LIGO and Virgo detectors have now observed approximately 50 black-hole-binary mergers, from which we can begin to infer how rapidly astrophysical black holes spin. The…
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…
