General-relativistic precession in a black-hole binary
Mark Hannam, Charlie Hoy, Jonathan E. Thompson +24
The general-relativistic phenomenon of spin-induced orbital precession has not yet been observed in strong-field gravity. Gravitational-wave observations of binary black holes (BBH…
A Pixelated Approach to Galaxy Catalogue Incompleteness: Improving the Dark Siren Measurement of the Hubble Constant
Rachel Gray, Chris Messenger, John Veitch
The use of gravitational wave standard sirens for cosmological analyses is becoming well known, with particular interest in measuring the Hubble constant, , and in shedding li…
A Bayesian Inference Framework for Gamma-Ray Burst Afterglow Properties
En-Tzu Lin, Fergus Hayes, Gavin P. Lamb +5
In the field of multi-messenger astronomy, Bayesian inference is commonly adopted to compare the compatibility of models given the observed data. However, to describe a physical sy…
Inclination estimates from off-axis GRB afterglow modelling
Gavin P Lamb, Joseph J Fernández, Fergus Hayes +7
For gravitational wave (GW) detected neutron star mergers, one of the leading candidates for electromagnetic (EM) counterparts is the afterglow from an ultra-relativistic jet. Wher…
Nested Sampling with Normalising Flows for Gravitational-Wave Inference
Michael J. Williams, John Veitch, Chris Messenger
We present a novel method for sampling iso-likelihood contours in nested sampling using a type of machine learning algorithm known as normalising flows and incorporate it into our…
LIGO Detector Characterization in the Second and Third Observing Runs
D. Davis, J. S. Areeda, B. K. Berger +284
The characterization of the Advanced LIGO detectors in the second and third observing runs has increased the sensitivity of the instruments, allowing for a higher number of detecta…
