Numerical simulations of oscillating and differentially rotating neutron stars

Santiago Jaraba, Jérôme Novak, Micaela Oertel

The remnants of binary neutron star mergers are expected to be massive, rapidly rotating stars whose oscillations produce gravitational waves in the kilohertz band. The degree of d…

Effects of dynamical capture on two equal-mass nonspinning black holes

Jorge L. Rodríguez-Monteverde, Santiago Jaraba, Juan García-Bellido

Dynamical captures of black holes are unique events that provide an exceptional opportunity to probe the strong-field regime of gravitational physics. In this article, we perform n…

First astrometric constraints on parity-violation in the gravitational wave background

Santiago Jaraba, Sachiko Kuroyanagi, Qiuyue Liang +2

Astrometry, the precise measurement of stellar positions and velocities, offers a promising approach to probing the low-frequency stochastic gravitational wave background (SGWB). N…

Astrometric constraints on stochastic gravitational wave background with neural networks

Marienza Caldarola, Gonzalo Morrás, Santiago Jaraba +3

Astrometric measurements provide a unique avenue for constraining the stochastic gravitational wave background (SGWB). In this work, we investigate the application of two neural ne…

Spin induction from scattering of two spinning black holes in dense clusters

Jorge L. Rodríguez-Monteverde, Santiago Jaraba, Juan García-Bellido

In this paper, we use numerical relativity to study the spin induction effect within close hyperbolic encounters of initially spinning black holes. We review the initially non-spin…

A numerical-relativity surrogate model for hyperbolic encounters of black holes: challenges in parameter estimation

Joan Fontbuté, Tomas Andrade, Raimon Luna +5

We present a surrogate numerical-relativity model for close hyperbolic black-hole encounters with equal masses and spins aligned with the orbital momentum. Our model, generated in…

Stochastic gravitational wave background constraints from Gaia DR3 astrometry

Santiago Jaraba, Juan García-Bellido, Sachiko Kuroyanagi +2

Astrometric surveys can be used to constrain the stochastic gravitational wave background (SGWB) at very low frequencies. We use proper motion data provided by Gaia DR3 to fit a ge…

The stochastic gravitational wave background from close hyperbolic encounters of primordial black holes in dense clusters

Juan García-Bellido, Santiago Jaraba, Sachiko Kuroyanagi

The inner part of dense clusters of primordial black holes is an active environment where multiple scattering processes take place. Some of them give rise from time to time to boun…

Black hole induced spins from hyperbolic encounters in dense clusters

Santiago Jaraba, Juan Garcia-Bellido

The black holes that have been detected via gravitational waves (GW) can have either astrophysical or primordial origin. Some GW events show significant spin for one of the compone…
