Population Properties of Compact Objects from the Second LIGO-Virgo Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, R. Abbott +1338

We report on the population of the 47 compact binary mergers detected with a false-alarm rate 1/yr in the second LIGO--Virgo Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog, GWTC-2. We observ…

Tests of General Relativity with Binary Black Holes from the second LIGO-Virgo Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, R. Abbott +1344

Gravitational waves enable tests of general relativity in the highly dynamical and strong-field regime. Using events detected by LIGO-Virgo up to 1 October 2019, we evaluate the co…

Low Energy Spread Attosecond Bunching and Coherent Electron Acceleration in Dielectric Nanostructures

Uwe Niedermayer, Dylan S. Black, Kenneth J. Leedle +3

We demonstrate a compact technique to compress electron pulses to attosecond length, while keeping the energy spread reasonably small. The technique is based on Dielectric Laser Ac…

Design of a multi-channel photonic crystal dielectric laser accelerator

Zhexin Zhao, Dylan S. Black, R. Joel England +5

To be useful for most scientific and medical applications, compact particle accelerators will require much higher average current than enabled by current architectures. For this pu…

A Cryogenic Silicon Interferometer for Gravitational-wave Detection

Rana X Adhikari, Odylio Aguiar, Koji Arai +108

The detection of gravitational waves from compact binary mergers by LIGO has opened the era of gravitational wave astronomy, revealing a previously hidden side of the cosmos. To ma…
