Polar magnetic fields in black-hole space-times
Richard Kerner, Gideon Koekoek, Julia Schuring +1
To model magnetic fields of compact objects we solve the Maxwell equations in the background of the exterior static Schwarzschild and slowly rotating Kerr space-times. We impose th…
Virgo Detector Characterization and Data Quality: tools
F. Acernese, M. Agathos, A. Ain +491
Detector characterization and data quality studies -- collectively referred to as {\em DetChar} activities in this article -- are paramount to the scientific exploitation of the jo…
Virgo Detector Characterization and Data Quality: results from the O3 run
F. Acernese, M. Agathos, A. Ain +491
The Advanced Virgo detector has contributed with its data to the rapid growth of the number of detected gravitational-wave (GW) signals in the past few years, alongside the two Adv…
Determining the equation of state of neutron stars with Einstein Telescope using tidal effects and r-mode excitations from a population of binary inspirals
Pawan Kumar Gupta, Anna Puecher, Peter T. H. Pang +3
Third-generation gravitational wave (GW) observatories such as Einstein Telescope (ET) and Cosmic Explorer (CE) will be ideal instruments to probe the structure of neutron stars th…
Virgo Detector Characterization and Data Quality during the O3 run
F. Acernese, M. Agathos, A. Ain +491
The Advanced Virgo detector has contributed with its data to the rapid growth of the number of detected gravitational-wave signals in the past few years, alongside the two LIGO ins…
The Virgo O3 run and the impact of the environment
F. Acernese, M. Agathos, A. Ain +486
Sources of geophysical noise (such as wind, sea waves and earthquakes) or of anthropogenic noise impact ground-based gravitational-wave interferometric detectors, causing transient…
Bounding dark charges on binary black holes using gravitational waves
Pawan Kumar Gupta, Thomas F. M. Spieksma, Peter T. H. Pang +2
In models of minicharged dark matter associated with a hidden symmetry, astrophysical black holes may acquire a "dark" charge, in such a way that the inspiral dynamics of bi…
Modeling and detecting resonant tides of exotic compact objects
Kwinten Fransen, Gideon Koekoek, Rob Tielemans +1
The event horizon of a black hole in general relativity absorbs all infalling radiation. Any observation of the contrary would immediately challenge the expectation that astrophysi…
Geodesic deviations: modeling extreme mass-ratio systems and their gravitational waves
G. Koekoek, J. W. van Holten
The method of geodesic deviations has been applied to derive accurate analytic approximations to geodesics in Schwarzschild space-time. The results are used to construct analytic e…
Epicycles and Poincaré Resonances in General Relativity
G. Koekoek, J. W. van Holten
The method of geodesic deviations provides analytic approximations to geodesics in arbitrary background space-times. As such the method is a useful tool in many practical situation…
