Template Banks for Binary black hole searches with Numerical Relativity waveforms
Prayush Kumar, Ilana MacDonald, Duncan A. Brown +8
Gravitational waves (GW) from coalescing stellar-mass black hole binaries (BBH) are expected to be detected by the Advanced Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory and…
First direct comparison of non-disrupting neutron star-black hole and binary black hole merger simulations
Francois Foucart, Luisa Buchman, Matthew D. Duez +7
We present the first direct comparison of numerical simulations of neutron star-black hole and black hole-black hole mergers in full general relativity. We focus on a configuration…
Black hole-neutron star mergers at realistic mass ratios: Equation of state and spin orientation effects
Francois Foucart, M. Brett Deaton, Matthew D. Duez +7
Black hole-neutron star mergers resulting in the disruption of the neutron star and the formation of an accretion disk and/or the ejection of unbound material are prime candidates…
Suitability of hybrid gravitational waveforms for unequal-mass binaries
Ilana MacDonald, Abdul H. Mroue, Harald P. Pfeiffer +5
This article studies sufficient accuracy criteria of hybrid post-Newtonian (PN) and numerical relativity (NR) waveforms for parameter estimation of strong binary black-hole sources…
The NINJA-2 catalog of hybrid post-Newtonian/numerical-relativity waveforms for non-precessing black-hole binaries
P. Ajith, Michael Boyle, Duncan A. Brown +45
The Numerical INJection Analysis (NINJA) project is a collaborative effort between members of the numerical relativity and gravitational wave data analysis communities. The purpose…
Non-Gaussian errors of baryonic acoustic oscillations
Wai-Hin Wayne Ngan, Joachim Harnois-Déraps, Ue-Li Pen +2
We revisit the uncertainty in baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) forecasts and data analyses. In particular, we study how much the uncertainties on both the measured mean dilation s…
