Discovering gravitational waveform distortions from lensing: A deep dive into GW231123
Juno C. L. Chan, Jose María Ezquiaga, Rico K. L. Lo +3
Gravitational waves (GWs) are unique messengers as they travel through the Universe without alteration except for gravitational lensing. Their long wavelengths make them susceptibl…
LensingFlow: An Automated Workflow for Gravitational Wave Lensing Analyses
Mick Wright, Justin Janquart, Paolo Cremonese +18
In this work, we present LensingFlow. This is an implementation of an automated workflow to search for evidence of gravitational lensing in a large series of gravitational wave eve…
Diffraction around caustics in gravitational wave lensing
Jose María Ezquiaga, Rico K. L. Lo, Luka Vujeva
Gravitational lensing magnification is maximal around caustics. At these source locations, an incoming wave from a point source would formally experience an infinite amplification…
What is the nature of GW230529? An exploration of the gravitational lensing hypothesis
Justin Janquart, David Keitel, Rico K. L. Lo +26
On the 29th of May 2023, the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA Collaboration observed a compact binary coalescence event consistent with a neutron star-black hole merger, though the heavier object…
Observational Signatures of Highly Magnified Gravitational Waves from Compact Binary Coalescence
Rico K. L. Lo, Luka Vujeva, Jose María Ezquiaga +1
Gravitational lensing has empowered telescopes to discover astronomical objects that are otherwise out of reach without being highly magnified by foreground structures. While we ex…
Template-based Gravitational-Wave Echoes Search Using Bayesian Model Selection
R. K. L. Lo, T. G. F. Li, A. J. Weinstein
The ringdown of the gravitational-wave signal from a merger of two black holes has been suggested as a probe of the structure of the remnant compact object, which may be more exoti…
