Accuracy of inference on the physics of binary evolution from gravitational-wave observations
Jim W. Barrett, Sebastian M. Gaebel, Coenraad J. Neijssel +5
The properties of the population of merging binary black holes encode some of the uncertain physics of the evolution of massive stars in binaries. The binary black hole merger rate…
Exploring the Parameter Space of Compact Binary Population Synthesis
Jim W. Barrett, Ilya Mandel, Coenraad J. Neijssel +2
As we enter the era of gravitational wave astronomy, we are beginning to collect observations which will enable us to explore aspects of astrophysics of massive stellar binaries wh…
Formation of the first three gravitational-wave observations through isolated binary evolution
Simon Stevenson, Alejandro Vigna-Gómez, Ilya Mandel +4
During its first 4 months of taking data, Advanced LIGO has detected gravitational waves from two binary black hole mergers, GW150914 and GW151226, along with the statistically les…
