The properties of the first continuous gravitational waves: Optimizing pulsar timing observations for supermassive black hole binary detection

Blaze Houlden, Eric Thrane, Katie Auchettl

Several pulsar timing arrays have reported evidence for a nanohertz gravitational-wave background. This background is thought to arise from the superposition of signals from a popu…

Revealing Four Subpopulations of Binary Black-Hole Mergers with the Fifth Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog

Nir Guttman, Paul D. Lasky, Eric Thrane

Gravitational-wave data are beginning to reveal a structured landscape of black-hole masses and spins, suggesting multiple formation processes are now being resolved observationall…

Fortifying gravitational-wave population inference with normalizing flows

Christian Adamcewicz, Hugh McDougall, Paul D. Lasky +1

As the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA collaboration's (LVK's) gravitational-wave transient catalog grows, we are learning a wealth of information from the population properties of binary black h…

Licence to Bin: Accurate and Scalable Inference for Binary Neutron Stars in Next-Generation Gravitational-Wave Detectors

Nir Guttman, A. Makai Baker, Paul D. Lasky +1

Next-generation gravitational-wave observatories will observe binary neutron-star mergers with much higher signal-to-noise ratios, over much longer durations and across broader fre…

A universal framework to identify eccentric binary mergers: GW200105 case study

Teagan A. Clarke, Isobel M. Romero-Shaw, Charlie Hoy +3

Orbital eccentricity in gravitational-wave signals from merging compact object binaries is a powerful indicator of their formation channel. Several binary black hole mergers and a…

A comprehensive framework for phase-coherent mapping of the gravitational-wave sky with pulsar timing arrays

Małgorzata Curyło, Eric Thrane, Paul D. Lasky +1

We present a practical implementation of a phase-coherent mapping technique for pulsar timing arrays that resolves the full complex polarisation state of the gravitational-wave sky…

Searching for gravitational waves from compact binary mergers powering long gamma-ray bursts during LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA's O3 run

Mallika R. Sinha, Teagan A. Clarke, Qifang Zhang +3

Neutron star binary mergers are often associated with short gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), but the recent detection of kilonovae coincident with long GRBs suggest that some mergers may p…
