Confusion Noise from Extreme-Mass-Ratio Inspirals
Leor Barack, Curt Cutler
Captures of compact objects (COs) by massive black holes in galactic nuclei (aka ``extreme-mass-ratio inspirals'') will be an important source for LISA. However, a large fraction o…

Oceanography of Accreting Neutron Stars: Non-Radial Oscillations and Periodic X-Ray Variability
Lars Bildsten, Andrew Cumming, Greg Ushomirsky +1
Observations of quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) in the luminosity from many accreting neutron stars (NS) have led us to investigate a source of periodicity prevalent in other st…
