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…
Robust, Rapid, and Simple Gravitational-wave Parameter Estimation
Alexander Harvey Nitz
Rapid and robust parameter estimation of gravitational-wave sources is a key component of modern multi-messenger astronomy. We present a novel and straightforward method for rapid…
Hierarchical searches for subsolar-mass binaries and the third-generation gravitational wave detector era
Kanchan Soni, Alexander H. Nitz
The detection of gravitational waves (GWs) from coalescing compact binaries has become routine with ground-based detectors like LIGO and Virgo. However, beyond standard sources suc…
Efficient Stochastic Template Bank using Inner Product Inequalities
Keisi Kacanja, Alexander H. Nitz, Shichao Wu +5
Gravitational wave searches are crucial for studying compact sources like neutron stars and black holes. Many sensitive modeled searches use matched filtering to compare gravitatio…
A Tale of Two Black Holes: Multiband Gravitational-Wave Measurement of Recoil Kicks
Shobhit Ranjan, Karan Jani, Alexander H. Nitz +2
The non-linear dynamics of General Relativity leave their imprint on remnants of black hole mergers in the form of a recoil ``kick''. The kick has profound astrophysical implicatio…
Multi-messenger Astrophysics of Black Holes and Neutron Stars as Probed by Ground-based Gravitational Wave Detectors: From Present to Future
Alessandra Corsi, Lisa Barsotti, Emanuele Berti +12
The ground-based gravitational wave (GW) detectors LIGO and Virgo have enabled the birth of multi-messenger GW astronomy via the detection of GWs from merging stellar-mass black ho…
