Characterizing Gravitational Wave Detector Networks: From A to Cosmic Explorer
Ish Gupta, Chaitanya Afle, K. G. Arun +44
Gravitational-wave observations by the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) and Virgo have provided us a new tool to explore the Universe on all scales from n…
What You Don't Know Can Hurt You: Use and Abuse of Astrophysical Models in Gravitational-wave Population Analyses
April Qiu Cheng, Michael Zevin, Salvatore Vitale
One of the goals of gravitational-wave astrophysics is to infer the number and properties of the formation channels of binary black holes (BBHs); to do so, one must be able to conn…
An observational upper limit on the rate of gamma-ray bursts with neutron star-black hole merger progenitors
Sylvia Biscoveanu, Eric Burns, Philippe Landry +1
Compact-object binary mergers consisting of one neutron star and one black hole (NSBHs) have long been considered promising progenitors for gamma-ray bursts, whose central engine r…
Cosmic Explorer: A Submission to the NSF MPSAC ngGW Subcommittee
Matthew Evans, Alessandra Corsi, Chaitanya Afle +73
Gravitational-wave astronomy has revolutionized humanity's view of the universe, a revolution driven by observations that no other field can make. This white paper describes an obs…
Too small to fail: characterizing sub-solar mass black hole mergers with gravitational waves
Noah E. Wolfe, Salvatore Vitale, Colm Talbot
The detection of a sub-solar mass black hole could yield dramatic new insights into the nature of dark matter and early-Universe physics, as such objects lack a traditional astroph…
Inferring the Astrophysical Population of Gravitational Wave Sources in the Presence of Noise Transients
Jack Heinzel, Colm Talbot, Gregory Ashton +1
The global network of interferometric gravitational wave (GW) observatories (LIGO, Virgo, KAGRA) has detected and characterized nearly 100 mergers of binary compact objects. Howeve…
