Towards a generic test of the strong field dynamics of general relativity using compact binary coalescence: Further investigations

T. G. F. Li, W. Del Pozzo, S. Vitale +7

In this paper we elaborate on earlier work by the same authors in which a novel Bayesian inference framework for testing the strong-field dynamics of General Relativity using coale…

Effect of calibration errors on Bayesian parameter estimation for gravitational wave signals from inspiral binary systems in the advanced detectors era

Salvatore Vitale, Walter Del Pozzo, Tjonnie G. F. Li +4

By 2015 the advanced versions of the gravitational-wave detectors Virgo and LIGO will be online. They will collect data in coincidence with enough sensitivity to potentially delive…

Towards a generic test of the strong field dynamics of general relativity using compact binary coalescence

T. G. F. Li, W. Del Pozzo, S. Vitale +7

Coalescences of binary neutron stars and/or black holes are amongst the most likely gravitational-wave signals to be observed in ground based interferometric detectors. Apart from…

Thermodynamics of a stochastic twin elevator

Niraj Kumar, Christian Van den Broeck, Massimiliano Esposito +1

We study the non-equilibrium thermodynamics of a single particle with two available energy levels, in contact with a classical (Maxwell-Boltzmann) or quantum (Bose-Einstein) heat b…

Second law and Landauer principle far from equilibrium

Massimiliano Esposito, Christian Van den Broeck

The amount of work that is needed to change the state of a system in contact with a heat bath between specified initial and final nonequilibrium states is at least equal to the cor…
