Nonlinear Perturbations of Relativistic Stars
K. J. Kwon, Abhishek Hegade K. R., Tejaswi Venumadhav +2
We extend the general relativistic Lagrangian perturbation formalism of Friedman and Schutz [Astrophys. J. 200, 204 (1975)] beyond linear order, retaining full time dependence of t…
Hybrid-star asteroseismology across sharp phase interfaces: Slow and rapid conversion in the - and -mode spectra
Zoey Zhiyuan Dong, Hao-Jui Kuan, Nicolas Yunes
First-order phase transitions in neutron-star interiors can leave signatures in the polar quasi-normal-mode spectrum. We compute the complex quadrupolar - and -mode spectra…
Neural-Accelerated Bayesian Calibration of Chiral Mean-Field Models to Nuclear Saturation and Vacuum Properties
Isaac Legred, Mateus Reinke Pelicer, Veronica Dexheimer +2
Chiral models of nuclear interactions provide approximate, phenomenological descriptions of dense matter that respect the symmetries of quantum chromodynamics. Their Lagrangian par…
Studying the QCD Matter produced in Heavy-Ion Collisions using the MUSES Calculation Engine
Johannes Jahan, Kevin P. Pala, Yumu Yang +42
The equation of state of hot and dense matter is essential for describing heavy-ion collisions at all collision energies. Here, we explore the capabilities of the latest version of…
A New Spin on Dissipative Tides: First-Post-Newtonian Effects in Compact Binary Inspirals
Anand Balivada, Abhishek Hegade K. R., Nicolás Yunes
Tidal dissipation in spinning compact binaries imprints characteristic corrections on the late-inspiral gravitational-wave signal. We develop a next-to-leading order post-Newtonian…
Donutization Inside Neutron Stars: Shell-Localized Scalar Fields
Hao-Jui Kuan, Alan Tsz-Lok Lam, Jacquelyn Noronha-Hostler +1
Heavy scalar fields ( eV) in scalar-tensor gravity are expected to be hidden from neutron-star observations because their Compton wavelength is sub-stellar. We s…
Metric Reconstruction for Generic Black-Hole Perturbations
Dongjun Li, Nicolás Yunes
Standard (radiation-gauge) metric reconstruction excludes generic sources because it requires a tracefree metric perturbation. We remove this obstruction for perturbations of Petro…
The Good, the Bad, and the Subtle: Relativistic mode sums for neutron-star tidal response
Abhishek Hegade K. R., K. J. Kwon, Tejaswi Venumadhav +2
Time-dependent tidal interactions during the late inspiral of binary neutron stars encode valuable information about neutron-star structure, but systematically extending the famili…
Non-radial pulsations of gravitationally coupled two-fluid neutron stars in general relativity
Ankit Kumar, Daniel A. Caballero, Hajime Sotani +1
Non-radial oscillations of neutron stars provide a powerful probe of stellar structure and relativistic gravity, but a fully general relativistic treatment for gravitationally coup…
Beyond Three Terms: Continued Fractions for Rotating Black Holes in Modified Gravity
Georgios Karikos, Jayana A. Saes, Pratik Wagle +1
Black-hole ringdown offers a clean probe of strong gravity, but one of its most accurate tools--Leaver's continued-fraction method--requires a three-term recurrence relation. Beyon…
Quadratic gravity corrections to scalar QNMs of rapidly rotating black holes
Stef J. B. Husken, Tom van der Steen, Simon Maenaut +6
In an effective-field-theory framework for gravity, black-hole quasinormal mode spectra acquire corrections in quadratic-curvature, scalar-tensor extensions of general relativity.…
Why Stellar Sequences Turn Over: Fixed Points, Instability, and Equation-of-State Universality
Isaac Legred, Nicolas Yunes
We reformulate the stellar structure equations in the language of dynamical systems and show that the maximum mass of stellar sequences arises from the existence of a fixed point i…
Sensitivity of neutron star observables to microscopic nuclear parameters of realistic equations of state
Nikolas Cruz-Camacho, Carlos Conde-Ocazionez, Veronica Dexheimer +2
The equation of state of matter at supranuclear densities governs the astrophysical observables of neutron stars. A realistic, though complex, description is provided by the Chiral…
Dynamical tidal response of neutron stars as a probe of dense-matter properties
Abhishek Hegade K. R., Yumu Yang, Mauricio Hippert +3
Dynamical tidal deformations play a crucial role in the gravitational waves emitted by binary neutron star systems during their late inspiral. In this work, we systematically explo…

Testing general relativity in the strong-field and highly dynamical regime is now possible through current gravitational-wave observations, where even a single high-quality detecti…
Systematic biases in parameter estimation on LISA binaries. II. The effect of excluding higher harmonics for spin-aligned, high-mass binaries
Sophia Yi, Francesco Iacovelli, Emanuele Berti +4
The Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) will observe massive black hole binaries (MBHBs) with astoundingly high signal-to-noise ratio, leaving parameter estimation with these…
Effects of Lighter-than-QCD Axions on Neutron Star Tidal Deformability
Yonatan Kahn, Michael Wentzel, Nicolás Yunes
Finite density corrections to the lighter-than-QCD axion can invert the effective axion potential, sourcing a non-trivial axion field inside dense objects. We perform the first num…
