Constraining the spin parameter of near-extremal black holes using LISA

Ollie Burke, Jonathan R. Gair, Joan Simón +1

We describe a model that generates first order adiabatic EMRI waveforms for quasi-circular equatorial inspirals of compact objects into rapidly rotating (near-extremal) black holes…

Computational Techniques for Parameter Estimation of Gravitational Wave Signals

Renate Meyer, Matthew C. Edwards, Patricio Maturana-Russel +1

Since the very first detection of gravitational waves from the coalescence of two black holes in 2015, Bayesian statistical methods have been routinely applied by LIGO and Virgo to…

Classifying the Equation of State from Rotating Core Collapse Gravitational Waves with Deep Learning

Matthew C. Edwards

In this paper, we seek to answer the question "given a rotating core collapse gravitational wave signal, can we determine its nuclear equation of state?". To answer this question,…

Identifying and Addressing Nonstationary LISA Noise

Matthew C. Edwards, Patricio Maturana-Russel, Renate Meyer +3

We anticipate noise from the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) will exhibit nonstationarities throughout the duration of its mission due to factors such as antenna repointi…

A guide to LIGO-Virgo detector noise and extraction of transient gravitational-wave signals

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1135

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration and the Virgo Collaboration have cataloged eleven confidently detected gravitational-wave events during the first two observing runs of the advanc…

Search for gravitational waves from Scorpius X-1 in the second Advanced LIGO observing run with an improved hidden Markov model

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1134

We present results from a semicoherent search for continuous gravitational waves from the low-mass X-ray binary Scorpius X-1, using a hidden Markov model (HMM) to track spin wander…
