GW170814: A Three-Detector Observation of Gravitational Waves from a Binary Black Hole Coalescence

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1107

On August 14, 2017 at 10:30:43 UTC, the Advanced Virgo detector and the two Advanced LIGO detectors coherently observed a transient gravitational-wave signal produced by the coales…

GW170817: Implications for the Stochastic Gravitational-Wave Background from Compact Binary Coalescences

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1099

The LIGO Scientific and Virgo Collaborations have announced the first detection of gravitational waves from the coalescence of two neutron stars. The merger rate of binary neutron…

Foundations of an effective-one-body model for coalescing binaries on eccentric orbits

Tanja Hinderer, Stanislav Babak

We develop the foundations of an effective-one-body (EOB) model for eccentric binary coalescences that includes the conservative dynamics, radiation reaction, and gravitational wav…

Distinguishing Boson Stars from Black Holes and Neutron Stars from Tidal Interactions in Inspiraling Binary Systems

Noah Sennett, Tanja Hinderer, Jan Steinhoff +2

Binary systems containing boson stars---self-gravitating configurations of a complex scalar field--- can potentially mimic black holes or neutron stars as gravitational-wave source…

Comprehensive numerical relativity -- effective-one-body comparison to inform improvements in waveform models for binary neutron star systems

Tim Dietrich, Tanja Hinderer

We present a detailed comparison between tidal effective-one-body (EOB) models and new state-of-the-art numerical relativity simulations for non-spinning binary neutron star system…
