Mass-gap extreme mass ratio inspirals
Zhen Pan, Zhenwei Lyu, Huan Yang
In this work, we propose a new subclass of extreme-mass-ratio-inspirals (EMRIs): mass-gap EMRIs, consisting of a compact object in the lower mass gap and a m…
First Constraints on Nuclear Coupling of Axionlike Particles from the Binary Neutron Star Gravitational Wave Event GW170817
Jun Zhang, Zhenwei Lyu, Junwu Huang +4
Light axion fields, if they exist, can be sourced by neutron stars due to their coupling to nuclear matter, and play a role in binary neutron star mergers. We report on a search fo…
Black-Hole Perturbation Plus Post-Newtonian Theory: Hybrid Waveform for Neutron Star Binaries
Xuefeng Feng, Zhenwei Lyu, Huan Yang
We consider the motion of nonspinning, compact objects orbiting around a Kerr black hole with tidal couplings. The tide-induced quadrupole moment modifies both the orbital energy a…
Wet Extreme Mass Ratio Inspirals May Be More Common For Spaceborne Gravitational Wave Detection
Zhen Pan, Zhenwei Lyu, Huan Yang
Extreme Mass Ratio Inspirals (EMRIs) can be classified as dry EMRIs and wet EMRIs based on their formation mechanisms. Dry (or the "loss-cone") EMRIs, previously considered as the…
