Comparing astrophysical models to gravitational-wave data in the observable space
Alexandre Toubiana, Davide Gerosa, Matthew Mould +9
Comparing population-synthesis models to the results of hierarchical Bayesian inference in gravitational-wave astronomy requires a careful understanding of the domain of validity o…
Where did Heavy Binaries Go? Gravitational-wave Populations Using Delaunay Triangulation with Optimized Complexity
Rodrigo Tenorio, Alexandre Toubiana, Tristan Bruel +2
We investigate the joint mass-redshift evolution of the binary black-hole merger rate in the latest Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog, GWTC-4.0. We present and apply a novel non…
Gravitational-Wave Background from Extragalactic Double White Dwarfs for LISA
Guillaume Boileau, Tristan Bruel, Alexandre Toubiana +2
Recent studies have revealed the contribution of extragalactic DWD to the astrophysical SGWB could be detectable in the mHz regime by LISA. Conversely, the presence of this SGWB co…
Great Balls of FIRE IV. The contribution of massive star clusters to the astrophysical population of merging binary black holes
Tristan Bruel, Astrid Lamberts, Carl L. Rodriguez +3
The detection of over a hundred gravitational wave signals from double compacts objects have confirmed the existence of such binaries with tight orbits. Two main formation channels…
