Towards gravitational wave parameter inference for binaries with an eccentric companion
Kai Hendriks, Lorenz Zwick, Pankaj Saini +2
We introduce a complete model for dephasing due to line-of-sight acceleration (LOSA) in gravitational wave (GW) signals from stellar-mass binary black holes (BBHs) in three-body sy…
Probing the Formation Environment of Strongly Lensed Black Hole Mergers: Implications for the AGN-disk Channel
Johan Samsing, Lorenz Zwick, Pankaj Saini +1
The observation of multiple images from a strongly lensed gravitational wave (GW) source provides the observer with a stereoscopic view of the source. This allows for a measure of…
Gravitational Wave Phase shifts of black hole mergers in AGN Disks
Hiromichi Tagawa, Connar Rowan, János Takátsy +4
Ground-based gravitational wave (GW) detectors have discovered about 200 compact object mergers. The astrophysical origins of these events are highly debated, and it is possible th…
Environmental effects in stellar mass gravitational wave sources II: Enhanced detectability of phase shifts in eccentric sub-populations
Lorenz Zwick, Kai Hendriks, Pankaj Saini +4
We demonstrate that the properties of eccentric gravitational wave (GW) signals enhance the detectability of GW phase shifts caused by environmental effects (EEs): The signal-to-no…
