Realistic Equations of State Informing Neutron Star Post-Merger Gravitational-Wave Frequencies
Spencer J. Magnall, Nilaksha Barman, Debarati Chatterjee +2
Binary neutron star mergers are thought to produce hot, rapidly rotating neutron stars with masses that can far exceed their Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff mass. The gravitational-wave…
Physics-Informed Priors Improve Gravitational-Wave Constraints on Neutron-Star Matter
Spencer J. Magnall, Christian Ecker, Luciano Rezzolla +2
Gravitational-wave astronomy shows great promise in determining nuclear physics in a regime not accessible to terrestrial experiments. We introduce physics-informed priors constrai…
You only thermoelastically deform once: Point Absorber Detection in LIGO Test Masses with YOLO
Simon R. Goode, Mitchell Schiworski, Daniel Brown +2
Current and future gravitational-wave observatories rely on large-scale, precision interferometers to detect the gravitational-wave signals. However, microscopic imperfections on t…
Directly inferring cosmology and the neutron-star equation of state from gravitational-wave mergers
Spencer J. Magnall, Simon R. Goode, Nikhil Sarin +1
Upgrades to existing gravitational-wave observatories have the potential to simultaneously constrain the nuclear equation of state and Hubble's constant to percent level with…
