Report of the Topical Group on Dark Energy and Cosmic Acceleration: Complementarity of Probes and New Facilities for Snowmass 2021

Brenna Flaugher, Vivian Miranda, David J. Schlegel +27

The mechanism(s) driving the early- and late-time accelerated expansion of the Universe represent one of the most compelling mysteries in fundamental physics today. The path to und…

Expediting DECam Multimessenger Counterpart Searches with Convolutional Neural Networks

Adam Shandonay, Robert Morgan, Keith Bechtol +11

Searches for counterparts to multimessenger events with optical imagers use difference imaging to detect new transient sources. However, even with existing artifact detection algor…

The SXS Collaboration catalog of binary black hole simulations

Michael Boyle, Daniel Hemberger, Dante A. B. Iozzo +37

Accurate models of gravitational waves from merging black holes are necessary for detectors to observe as many events as possible while extracting the maximum science. Near the tim…

On the properties of the massive binary black hole merger GW170729

Katerina Chatziioannou, Roberto Cotesta, Sudarshan Ghonge +53

We present a detailed investigation into the properties of GW170729, the gravitational wave with the most massive and distant source confirmed to date. We employ an extensive set o…

Targeted numerical simulations of binary black holes for GW170104

James Healy, Jacob Lange, Richard O'Shaughnessy +22

In response to LIGO's observation of GW170104, we performed a series of full numerical simulations of binary black holes, each designed to replicate likely realizations of its dyna…

Modeling the source of GW150914 with targeted numerical-relativity simulations

Geoffrey Lovelace, Carlos O. Lousto, James Healy +11

In fall of 2015, the two LIGO detectors measured the gravitational wave signal GW150914, which originated from a pair of merging black holes. In the final 0.2 seconds (about 8 grav…
