Gravitational-wave parameter estimation to the Moon and back: massive binaries and the case of GW231123

Francesco Iacovelli, Jacopo Tissino, Jan Harms +1

We study the prospects of the Lunar Gravitational-Wave Antenna (LGWA), a proposed deci-Hz GW detector, to observe binary black holes (BBHs) and enable multiband science with ground…

Waveform Modelling for the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna

LISA Consortium Waveform Working Group, Niayesh Afshordi, Sarp Akçay +144

LISA, the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna, will usher in a new era in gravitational-wave astronomy. As the first anticipated space-based gravitational-wave detector, it will exp…

Extreme mass ratio inspirals in dark matter halos: dynamics and distinguishability of halo models

Sara Gliorio, Emanuele Berti, Andrea Maselli +1

The gravitational wave (GW) signals from extreme mass-ratio inspirals (EMRIs), a key target for the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA), will be affected in the presence of d…

Systematic biases in parameter estimation on LISA binaries: The effect of excluding higher harmonics for non-spinning binaries

Sophia Yi, Francesco Iacovelli, Sylvain Marsat +2

The remarkable sensitivity achieved by the planned Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) will allow us to observe gravitational-wave signals from the mergers of massive black h…

Inferring black hole formation channels in GWTC-4.0 via parametric mass-spin correlations derived from first principles

Emanuele Berti, Francesco Crescimbeni, Gabriele Franciolini +3

We investigate the differences between several proposed formation scenarios for binary black holes (BBHs), including isolated stellar evolution, dynamical assembly in dense cluster…
