A Horizon Study for Cosmic Explorer: Science, Observatories, and Community

Matthew Evans, Rana X Adhikari, Chaitanya Afle +29

This Horizon Study describes a next-generation ground-based gravitational-wave observatory: Cosmic Explorer. With ten times the sensitivity of Advanced LIGO, Cosmic Explorer will p…

Impact of the PSR J0740+6620 radius constraint on the properties of high-density matter

Isaac Legred, Katerina Chatziioannou, Reed Essick +2

X-ray pulse profile modeling of PSR J0740+6620, the most massive known pulsar, with data from the NICER and XMM-Newton observatories recently led to a measurement of its radius. We…

Predicting electromagnetic counterparts using low-latency, gravitational-wave data products

Cosmin Stachie, Michael W. Coughlin, Tim Dietrich +8

Searches for gravitational-wave counterparts have been going in earnest since GW170817 and the discovery of AT2017gfo. Since then, the lack of detection of other optical counterpar…

Astrophysical Constraints on the Symmetry Energy and the Neutron Skin of Pb with Minimal Modeling Assumptions

Reed Essick, Ingo Tews, Philippe Landry +1

The symmetry energy and its density dependence are crucial inputs for many nuclear physics and astrophysics applications, as they determine properties ranging from the neutron-skin…

Discriminating between Neutron Stars and Black Holes with Imperfect Knowledge of the Maximum Neutron Star Mass

Reed Essick, Philippe Landry

Although gravitational-wave signals from exceptional low-mass compact binary coalescences, like GW170817, may carry matter signatures that differentiate the source from a binary bl…

Direct Astrophysical Tests of Chiral Effective Field Theory at Supranuclear Densities

Reed Essick, Ingo Tews, Philippe Landry +2

Recent observations of neutron stars with gravitational waves and X-ray timing provide unprecedented access to the equation of state (EoS) of cold dense matter at densities difficu…
