Gravitational Wave Peep Contributions to Background Signal Confusion Noise for LISA

Daniel J Oliver, Aaron D Johnson, Lena Janssen +3

Two-body gravitational interactions will occasionally lead to a stellar-mass compact object entering a very highly eccentric orbit around a massive black hole at the center of a ga…

Gravitational Wave Peeps from EMRIs and their Implication for LISA Signal Confusion Noise

Daniel J Oliver, Aaron D Johnson, Joel Berrier +2

Scattering events around the center of massive galaxies will occasionally toss a stellar-mass compact object into an orbit around the massive black hole at the center, beginning an…

Probing the Low-mass End of the Black Hole Mass Function via a Study of Faint Local Spiral Galaxies

Michael S. Fusco, Benjamin L. Davis, Julia Kennefick +2

We present an analysis of the pitch angle distribution function (PADF) for nearby galaxies and its resulting black hole mass function (BHMF) via the well-known relationship between…

Evidence in favour of density wave theory through star formation history maps and spatially resolved stellar clusters

Shameer Abdeen, Daniel Kennefick, Julia Kennefick +7

Stationary Density Wave Theory predicts the existence of an age gradient across the spiral arms with a phase crossing at the co-rotation radius. Using star formation history (SFH)…

Determining the Co-Rotation Radii of Spiral Galaxies Using Spiral Arm Pitch Angle Measurements at Multiple Wavelengths

Shameer Abdeen, Daniel Kennefick, Julia Kennefick +4

The spiral arms spanning disk galaxies are believed to be created by density waves that propagate through galactic disks. We present a novel method of finding the co-rotation radiu…

100 years of the first experimental test of General Relativity

Luís C. B. Crispino, Daniel Kennefick

Einsteins general theory of relativity is one of the most important accomplishments in the history of science. Its experimental verification a century ago is therefore an essential…
