Limits on the Ejecta Mass During the Search for Kilonovae Associated with Neutron Star-Black Hole Mergers: A case study of S230518h, GW230529, S230627c and the Low-Significance Candidate S240422ed

M. Pillas, S. Antier, K. Ackley +78

Neutron star-black hole (NSBH) mergers, detectable via their gravitational-wave (GW) emission, are expected to produce kilonovae (KNe). Four NSBH candidates have been identified an…

A Search for Low-Mass Neutron Stars in the Third Observing Run of Advanced LIGO and Virgo

Keisi Kacanja, Alexander H. Nitz

Most observed neutron stars have masses around 1.4 , consistent with current formation mechanisms. To date, no sub-solar mass neutron star has been observed. Observing a l…

Pre-merger localization of compact-binary mergers with third generation observatories

Alexander H. Nitz, Tito Dal Canton

We present the prospects for the pre-merger detection and localization of binary neutron star mergers with third generation gravitational-wave observatories. We consider a wide var…

Search for gravitational waves from the coalescence of sub-solar mass binaries in the first half of Advanced LIGO and Virgo's third observing run

Alexander H. Nitz, Yi-Fan Wang

We present a search for gravitational waves from the coalescence of sub-solar mass black hole binaries using data from the first half of Advanced LIGO and Virgo's third observing r…

Eccentric Binary Neutron Star Search Prospects for Cosmic Explorer

Amber K. Lenon, Duncan A. Brown, Alexander H. Nitz

We determine the ability of Cosmic Explorer, a proposed third-generation gravitational-wave observatory, to detect eccentric binary neutron stars and to measure their eccentricity.…

Prospects for detecting gravitational waves from eccentric subsolar mass compact binaries

Yi-Fan Wang, Alexander H. Nitz

Due to their small mass, subsolar mass black hole binaries would have to be primordial in origin instead of the result of stellar evolution. Soon after formation in the early unive…
