LIGO A: Detector Design and Science Prospects Beyond A+

L. Sun, K. Kuns, B. J. J. Slagmolen +1153

We present the LIGO A detector concept, an upgrade for the LIGO observatories based on room-temperature interferometers beyond the fifth observing run (O5). Building on th…

GW231123: a Binary Black Hole Merger with Total Mass 190-265

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1771

On 2023 November 23 the two LIGO observatories both detected GW231123, a gravitational-wave signal consistent with the merger of two black holes with masses $137^{+23}_{-18}\, M_\o…

Improved Binary Black Hole Search Discriminator from the Singular Value Decomposition of Non-Gaussian Noise Transients

Tathagata Ghosh, Sukanta Bose, Sanjeev Dhurandhar +1

The sensitivity of current gravitational wave (GW) detectors to transient GW signals is severely affected by a variety of non-Gaussian and non-stationary noise transients, such as…

Joint Inference of Population, Cosmology, and Neutron Star Equation of State from Gravitational Waves of Dark Binary Neutron Stars

Tathagata Ghosh, Bhaskar Biswas, Sukanta Bose +1

Gravitational waves (GWs) from binary neutron stars (BNSs) are expected to be accompanied by electromagnetic (EM) emissions, which help identify the host galaxy. Since GWs directly…

Joint gravitational wave-short GRB detection of Binary Neutron Star mergers with existing and future facilities

Soumyadeep Bhattacharjee, Smaranika Banerjee, Varun Bhalerao +6

We explore the joint detection prospects of short gamma-ray bursts (sGRBs) and their gravitational wave (GW) counterparts by the current and upcoming high-energy GRB and GW facilit…
