Line-of-Sight Acceleration-driven waveform corrections for unequal-mass compact binary coalescences

Mohd Asim Ansari, Avinash Tiwari, Sajad A. Bhat +2

A constant line-of-sight acceleration (LOSA) of the centre-of-mass of a quasi-circular compact binary coalescence (CBC) leads to modulations in the gravitational-wave (GW) waveform…

Line-of-sight Acceleration Driven Effects in Eccentric Compact Binary Coalescences

Mohd Asim Ansari, Avinash Tiwari, Sajad A. Bhat +2

The line-of-sight acceleration (LOSA) effect, imprinted in the gravitational wave (GW) signal of an inspiralling compact binary by an external gravitational potential, is one of th…

Gravitational Wave Informed Inference of 21-cm Global Signal Parameters

Avinash Tiwari, Sajad A. Bhat, Tirthankar Roy Choudhury +3

Understanding how and when the first stars and galaxies formed remains one of the central challenges in modern cosmology. These structures emerged during the transition from the Da…

Implications of GW241011 for rotating exotic compact objects

N. V. Krishnendu, Tamara Evstafyeva, Aditya Vijaykumar +17

A number of theoretical proposals have been made for horizonless compact objects with masses and spins similar to those of black holes. While gravitational wave signatures from the…

Testing the nature of GW200105 by probing the frequency evolution of eccentricity

Avinash Tiwari, Sajad A. Bhat, Md Arif Shaikh +1

GW200105 is a compact binary coalescence (CBC) event, consisting of a neutron star and a black hole, observed in LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA's (LVK's) third observing run (O3). Recent reanaly…

Eccentricity evolution consistency test to distinguish eccentric gravitational-wave signals from eccentricity mimickers

Sajad A. Bhat, Avinash Tiwari, Md Arif Shaikh +1

Eccentric compact binary coalescences (CBCs) are expected to be observed in current and future gravitational-wave (GW) detector networks. However, it has been recently pointed out…

Parametrized tests of general relativity using eccentric compact binaries

Sajad A. Bhat, Pankaj Saini, Marc Favata +3

Astrophysical population simulations predict that a subset of dynamically formed binary black holes (BBHs) may possess eccentricity at a gravitational wave (GW) frequ…

Can the Near-Horizon Black Hole Memory be detected through Binary Inspirals?

Sajad A. Bhat, Srijit Bhattacharjee, Shasvath J. Kapadia

The memory effect, in the context of gravitational-waves (GWs), manifests itself in the permanent relative displacement of test masses when they encounter the GWs. A number of work…

A study of the Inspiral-Merger-Ringdown Consistency Test with gravitational-wave signals from compact binaries in eccentric orbits

Md Arif Shaikh, Sajad A. Bhat, Shasvath J. Kapadia

The Inspiral Merger Ringdown Consistency Test (IMRCT) is one among a battery of tests of general relativity (GR) employed by the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA (LVK) collaboration. It is used to…

Eccentricity-induced systematic error on parametrized tests of general relativity: Hierarchical Bayesian inference applied to a binary black hole population

Pankaj Saini, Sajad A. Bhat, Marc Favata +1

One approach to testing general relativity (GR) introduces free parameters in the post-Newtonian (PN) expansion of the gravitational-wave (GW) phase. If systematic errors on these…

Cooling of Dark-Matter Admixed Neutron Stars with density-dependent Equation of State

Sajad A. Bhat, Avik Paul

We propose a dark-matter (DM) admixed density-dependent equation of state where the fermionic DM interacts with the nucleons via Higgs portal. Presence of DM can hardly influence t…
