Modeling Direct Waves in Binary Black Hole Ringdowns
Richard Dyer, Adrian Ka-Wai Chung, Christopher J. Moore
Direct waves, prompt signals propagating from a plunging object to the observer, exist alongside quasinormal modes in binary black hole ringdown. It has been suggested that the pro…

Lessons from binary dynamics of inspiralling equal-mass boson-star mergers
Tamara Evstafyeva, Antonia Seifert, Ulrich Sperhake +2
We explore the gravitational-wave phenomenology of equal-mass inspiralling boson-star binaries using numerical relativity simulations. In particular, we characterise the waveform d…
