PhenomXO4a: a phenomenological gravitational-wave model for precessing black-hole binaries with higher multipoles and asymmetries
Jonathan E. Thompson, Eleanor Hamilton, Lionel London +4
In this work we introduce PhenomXO4a, the first phenomenological, frequency-domain gravitational waveform model to incorporate multipole asymmetries and precession angles tuned to…
Revisiting the cosmic string origin of GW190521
Josu C. Aurrekoetxea, Charlie Hoy, Mark Hannam
For the first time we analyse gravitational-wave strain data using waveforms constructed from strong gravity simulations of cosmic string loops collapsing to Schwarzschild black ho…
Simple parameter estimation using observable features of gravitational-wave signals
Stephen Fairhurst, Charlie Hoy, Rhys Green +2
Using simple, intuitive arguments, we discuss the expected accuracy with which astrophysical parameters can be extracted from an observed gravitational wave signal. The observation…
A search technique to observe precessing compact binary mergers in the advanced detector era
Connor McIsaac, Charlie Hoy, Ian Harry
Gravitational-wave signals from compact binary coalescences are most efficiently identified through matched filter searches, which match the data against a pre-generated bank of gr…
A catalogue of precessing black-hole-binary numerical-relativity simulations
Eleanor Hamilton, Edward Fauchon-Jones, Mark Hannam +9
We present a public catalogue of numerical-relativity binary-black-hole simulations. The catalogue contains datasets from 80 distinct configurations of precessing binary-black-hole…
VARAHA: A Fast Non-Markovian sampler for estimating Gravitational-Wave posteriors
Vaibhav Tiwari, Charlie Hoy, Stephen Fairhurst +1
This article introduces VARAHA, an open-source, fast, non-Markovian sampler for estimating gravitational-wave posteriors. VARAHA differs from existing Nested sampling algorithms by…
