Growth of a Black Hole in a Scalar Field Cosmology

Jake Doherty, Miguel Gracia-Linares, Pablo Laguna

We present a numerical relativity study of the accretion properties of a non-spinning black hole in a cosmology driven by a scalar field. The simulations are carried out with a mod…

Black Hole - Neutron Star Binary Mergers: The Impact of Stellar Compactness

Bing-Jyun Tsao, Bhavesh Khamesra, Miguel Gracia-Linares +1

Recent gravitational wave observations include possible detections of black hole - neutron star binary mergers. As with binary black hole mergers, numerical simulations help charac…

Waveform Modelling for the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna

LISA Consortium Waveform Working Group, Niayesh Afshordi, Sarp Akçay +144

LISA, the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna, will usher in a new era in gravitational-wave astronomy. As the first anticipated space-based gravitational-wave detector, it will exp…

Mayawaves: Python Library for Interacting with the Einstein Toolkit and the MAYA Catalog

Deborah Ferguson, Surendra Anne, Miguel Gracia-Linares +9

Numerical relativity simulations are crucial for studying black holes and have been instrumental in the detection of gravitational waves by the LVK. However, these simulations prod…

Second MAYA Catalog of Binary Black Hole Numerical Relativity Waveforms

Deborah Ferguson, Evelyn Allsup, Surendra Anne +14

Numerical relativity waveforms are a critical resource in the quest to deepen our understanding of the dynamics of, and gravitational waves emitted from, merging binary systems. We…

Impact of ringdown higher-order modes on black-hole mergers in dense environments: the scalar field case, detectability and parameter biases

Samson H. W. Leong, Juan Calderón Bustillo, Miguel Gracia-Linares +1

Dense environments hosting compact binary mergers can leave an imprint on the gravitational-wave emission which, in turn, can be used to identify the characteristics of the environ…

Gravitational recoil from binary black hole mergers in scalar field clouds

Yu-Peng Zhang, Miguel Gracia-Linares, Pablo Laguna +2

In vacuum, the gravitational recoil of the final black hole from the merger of two black holes depends exclusively on the mass ratio and spins of the coalescing black holes, and on…

Black Hole - Neutron Star Binary Mergers: The Imprint of Tidal Deformations and Debris

Bhavesh Khamesra, Miguel Gracia-Linares, Pablo Laguna

The increase in the sensitivity of gravitational wave interferometers will bring additional detections of binary black hole and double neutron star mergers. It will also very likel…

Busting Up Binaries: Encounters Between Compact Binaries and a Supermassive Black Hole

Eric Addison, Pablo Laguna, Shane Larson

Given the stellar density near the galactic center, close encounters between compact object binaries and the supermassive black hole are a plausible occurrence. We present results…
