Sharpening the dark matter signature in gravitational waveforms II: Numerical simulations with the NbodyIMRI code

Bradley J. Kavanagh, Theophanes K. Karydas, Gianfranco Bertone +2

Future gravitational wave observatories can probe dark matter by detecting the dephasing in the waveform of binary black hole mergers induced by dark matter overdensities. Such a d…
