Astrophysical Gravitational-Wave Echoes from Galactic Nuclei

László Gondán, Bence Kocsis

Galactic nuclei (GNs) are dense stellar environments abundant in gravitational-wave (GW) sources for LIGO, VIRGO, and KAGRA. The GWs may be generated by stellar-mass black hole (BH…

High Eccentricities and High Masses Characterize Gravitational-wave Captures in Galactic Nuclei as Seen by Earth-based Detectors

László Gondán, Bence Kocsis

The emission of gravitational waves (GWs) during single-single close encounters in galactic nuclei (GNs) leads to the formation and rapid merger of highly eccentric stellar-mass bl…

Eccentric Black Hole Gravitational-Wave Capture Sources in Galactic Nuclei: Distribution of Binary Parameters

László Gondán, Bence Kocsis, Péter Raffai +1

Mergers of binary black holes on eccentric orbits are among the targets for second-generation ground-based gravitational-wave detectors. These sources may commonly form in galactic…

Accuracy of Estimating Highly Eccentric Binary Black Hole Parameters with Gravitational-Wave Detections

László Gondán, Bence Kocsis, Péter Raffai +1

Mergers of stellar-mass black holes on highly eccentric orbits are among the targets for ground-based gravitational-wave detectors, including LIGO, VIRGO, and KAGRA. These sources…

Optimal Networks of Future Gravitational-Wave Telescopes

Péter Raffai, László Gondán, Ik Siong Heng +4

We aim to find the optimal site locations for a hypothetical network of 1-3 triangular gravitational-wave telescopes. We define the following N-telescope figures of merit (FoMs) an…
