LISA sources and science
Scott A. Hughes
LISA is a planned space-based gravitational-wave (GW) detector that would be sensitive to waves from low-frequency sources, in the band of roughly (0.03 - 0.1) mHz < f < 0.1 Hz. Th…
Localizing coalescing massive black hole binaries with gravitational waves
Ryan N. Lang, Scott A. Hughes
Massive black hole binary coalescences are prime targets for space-based gravitational wave (GW) observatories such as {\it LISA}. GW measurements can localize the position of a co…
Circular and non-circular nearly horizon-skimming orbits in Kerr spacetimes
Enrico Barausse, Scott A. Hughes, Luciano Rezzolla
We have performed a detailed analysis of orbital motion in the vicinity of a nearly extremal Kerr black hole. For very rapidly rotating black holes (spin a=J/M>0.9524M) we have fou…
Towards adiabatic waveforms for inspiral into Kerr black holes: I. A new model of the source for the time domain perturbation equation
Pranesh A. Sundararajan, Gaurav Khanna, Scott A. Hughes
We revisit the problem of the emission of gravitational waves from a test mass orbiting and thus perturbing a Kerr black hole. The source term of the Teukolsky perturbation equatio…
