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…
A Delayed Radio Flare Traces Kinetic Energy Injection in the SMBHB Candidate SDSS~J143016.05+230344.4
Tao An, Ailing Wang, Yingkang Zhang +12
SDSS~J143016.05+230344.4 () has been proposed as a candidate pre-coalescence supermassive black hole binary and shows remarkable multiwavelength variability. Its radio e…
Science Opportunities of Wet Extreme Mass-Ratio Inspirals
Zhenwei Lyu, Zhen Pan, Junjie Mao +2
Wet extreme mass-ratio inspirals (wet EMRIs), which arise from stellar-mass black holes inspiral into supermassive black holes (SMBHs) within the gas-rich environments of Active Ga…
Relativistic excitation of compact stars
Zhiqiang Miao, Xuefeng Feng, Zhen Pan +1
In this work, we study the excitation of a compact star under the influence of external gravitational driving in the relativistic regime. Using a model setup in which a wave with c…
Probing Formation Channels of Extreme Mass-Ratio Inspirals
Houyi Sun, Ya-Ping Li, Zhen Pan +1
The population study of stellar-mass black hole (sBH) binaries with ground-based gravitational wave detection has achieved tremendous success in recent years. Future observation of…
Extreme Mass-Ratio Inspirals in Active Galactic Nucleus Disks: The Role of Circumsingle Disks
Ya-Ping Li, Huan Yang, Zhen Pan
In this work, we numerically explore the dynamics of a point mass (e.g., a stellar-mass black hole) moving within a thin accretion disk of a massive object (i.e., a supermassive bl…
