Impact of site-dependent noise configurations on Einstein Telescope science at low frequency

Francesco Crescimbeni, Matteo Di Giovanni, Davide Rozza +9

We investigate how site-dependent Newtonian noise configurations affect the scientific performance of the Einstein Telescope (ET), a third-generation gravitational-wave observatory…

Ruling out matter-induced bumps in black-hole effective potentials

Matteo Della Rocca, Romeo Felice Rosato, Paolo Pani

Matter fields localized around black holes can produce small secondary bumps in the effective potentials governing black-hole perturbations, potentially leading to quasinormal-mode…

Dynamical tidal response of neutron stars: From effective field theory to gravitational waveforms

Thomas Apostolidis, Valerio De Luca, Leonardo Gualtieri +3

We investigate the fully relativistic dynamical tidal response of neutron stars up to second order in the frequency. Combining the worldline effective field theory for extended gra…

Quasinormal modes and tidal responses of black holes in generic anisotropic matter environments

Yu-Qian Zhao, Paolo Pani

We develop a perturbative framework for a black hole embedded in a generic, possibly anisotropic, matter environment under spherical symmetry. Our approach extends previous analyse…

Novel Ringdown Tests of General Relativity with Black Hole Graybody Factors

Romeo Felice Rosato, Francesco Crescimbeni, Sophia Yi +2

We present GreyRing, a new model for the post-merger signal in black-hole binary coalescences based on the graybody factor of the remnant. The model accurately reproduces the full…

Tidal Response of Compact Objects

Sumanta Chakraborty, Paolo Pani

The tidal response of compact objects provides a powerful probe of their internal structure and of the surrounding gravitational field. We provide a comprehensive and unified overv…
