Ultralight boson constraints from gravitational wave observations of spinning binary black holes
P. S. Aswathi, William E. East, Nils Siemonsen +2
In the presence of an ultralight scalar or vector boson, a spinning black hole will be spun down through the superradiant instability. We use spin measurements from gravitational w…

Observational prospects of self-interacting scalar superradiance with next-generation gravitational-wave detectors
Spencer Collaviti, Ling Sun, Marios Galanis +1
Current- and next-generation gravitational-wave observatories may reveal new, ultralight bosons. Through the superradiance process, these theoretical particle candidates can form c…
