Gravitational Wave Hyperbolic Catalog: Reanalyzing High-Mass Gravitational Wave Signals Using Hyperbolic Waveforms
Jacob Lange, Danilo Chiaramello, Peter Lott +4
Close hyperbolic encounters between black holes produce distinctive bursts of gravitational radiation with a time-frequency morphology that is qualitatively different from that of…
Analysis of GWTC-3 with fully precessing numerical relativity surrogate models
Tousif Islam, Avi Vajpeyi, Feroz H. Shaik +6
The third Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog (GWTC-3) contains 90 binary coalescence candidates detected by the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA Collaboration (LVK). We provide a re-analysis of…
Second MAYA Catalog of Binary Black Hole Numerical Relativity Waveforms
Deborah Ferguson, Evelyn Allsup, Surendra Anne +14
Numerical relativity waveforms are a critical resource in the quest to deepen our understanding of the dynamics of, and gravitational waves emitted from, merging binary systems. We…
Parameter estimation of gravitational waves from hyperbolic black hole encounters
Chad Henshaw, Jacob Lange, Peter Lott +2
Systems of two black holes with unbound orbits can produce a diverse array of gravitational wave signals with rich morphology. This parameter space encompasses both hyperbolic orbi…
Adapting a novel framework for rapid inference of massive black hole binaries for LISA
Aasim Jan, Richard O'Shaughnessy, Deirdre Shoemaker +1
The Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) is designed to detect a variety of gravitational-wave events, including mergers of massive black hole binaries, stellar-mass black hol…
Properties of 'Lite' Intermediate-Mass Black Hole Candidates in LIGO-Virgo's Third Observing Run
Krystal Ruiz-Rocha, Anjali B. Yelikar, Jacob Lange +5
Over a hundred gravitational-wave (GW) detections and candidates have been reported from the first three observing runs of the Advanced LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA (LVK) detectors. Among thes…
