Impact of sky localization uncertainty on ringdown inference

Kallol Dey, Enrico Barausse, Marco Crisostomi +1

As gravitational-wave ringdown signals grow louder, quasinormal-mode inference depends increasingly on the treatment of extrinsic parameters. Standard analyses fix sky localization…

labrador: A domain-optimized machine-learning tool for gravitational wave inference

Javier Roulet, Marco Crisostomi, Lucy M. Thomas +1

Fast and reliable inference of gravitational-wave source parameters is crucial for analyzing large catalogs that are reaching the size of hundreds of detections, and for identifyin…

Fixing the dynamical evolution of self-interacting vector fields

Marcelo E. Rubio, Guillermo Lara, Miguel Bezares +2

Numerical simulations of the Cauchy problem for self-interacting massive vector fields often face instabilities and apparent pathologies. We explicitly demonstrate that these issue…

Rapid parameter estimation for pulsar-timing-array datasets with variational inference and normalizing flows

Michele Vallisneri, Marco Crisostomi, Aaron D. Johnson +1

In the gravitational-wave analysis of pulsar-timing-array datasets, parameter estimation is usually performed using Markov Chain Monte Carlo methods to explore posterior probabilit…

Neural Posterior Estimation with guaranteed exact coverage: the ringdown of GW150914

Marco Crisostomi, Kallol Dey, Enrico Barausse +1

We analyze the ringdown phase of the first detected black-hole merger, GW150914, using a simulation-based inference pipeline based on masked autoregressive flows. We obtain approxi…

Robustness of kinetic screening against matter coupling

Guillermo Lara, Miguel Bezares, Marco Crisostomi +1

We investigate neutron star solutions in scalar-tensor theories of gravity with first-order derivative self-interactions in the action and in the matter coupling. We assess the rob…

The well-posedness of the Cauchy problem for self-interacting vector fields

Enrico Barausse, Miguel Bezares, Marco Crisostomi +1

We point out that the initial-value (Cauchy) problem for self-interacting vector fields presents the same well-posedness issues as for first-order derivative self-interacting scala…

New Horizons for Fundamental Physics with LISA

K. G. Arun, Enis Belgacem, Robert Benkel +138

The Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) has the potential to reveal wonders about the fundamental theory of nature at play in the extreme gravity regime, where the gravitatio…

No evidence of kinetic screening in simulations of merging binary neutron stars beyond general relativity

Miguel Bezares, Ricard Aguilera-Miret, Lotte ter Haar +3

We have conducted fully relativistic simulations in a class of scalar-tensor theories with derivative self-interactions and screening of local scales. By using high-resolution shoc…

Kinetic screening in nonlinear stellar oscillations and gravitational collapse

Miguel Bezares, Lotte ter Haar, Marco Crisostomi +2

We consider k-essence, a scalar-tensor theory with first-order derivative self-interactions that can screen local scales from scalar fifth forces, while allowing for sizeable devia…

Dynamics of Screening in Modified Gravity

Lotte ter Haar, Miguel Bezares, Marco Crisostomi +2

Gravitational theories differing from General Relativity may explain the accelerated expansion of the Universe without a cosmological constant. However, to pass local gravitational…

K-dynamics: well-posed 1+1 evolutions in K-essence

Miguel Bezares, Marco Crisostomi, Carlos Palenzuela +1

We study the vacuum Cauchy problem for K-essence, i.e. cosmologically relevant scalar-tensor theories that involve first-order derivative self-interactions, and which pass all exis…

Perturbations of a rotating black hole in DHOST theories

Christos Charmousis, Marco Crisostomi, David Langlois +1

We study linear perturbations of a rotating black hole solution that has been recently discovered in degenerate higher-order scalar-tensor (DHOST) theories. We find a parametrizati…

Vainshtein regime in Scalar-Tensor gravity: constraints on DHOST theories

Marco Crisostomi, Matthew Lewandowski, Filippo Vernizzi

We study the screening mechanism in the most general scalar-tensor theories that leave gravitational waves unaffected and are thus compatible with recent LIGO/Virgo observations. U…

Restoring General Relativity in massive bi-gravity theory

Eugeny Babichev, Marco Crisostomi

We study static spherically symmetric solutions of massive bi-gravity theory, free from the Boulware-Deser ghost. We show the recovery of General Relativity via the Vainshtein mech…
