LIGO A: Detector Design and Science Prospects Beyond A+
L. Sun, K. Kuns, B. J. J. Slagmolen +1153
We present the LIGO A detector concept, an upgrade for the LIGO observatories based on room-temperature interferometers beyond the fifth observing run (O5). Building on th…
Gravitational-Wave Parameter Estimation in non-Gaussian noise using Score-Based Likelihood Characterization
Ronan Legin, Maximiliano Isi, Kaze W. K. Wong +2
Gravitational-wave (GW) parameter estimation typically assumes that instrumental noise is Gaussian and stationary. Obvious departures from this idealization are typically handled o…
Fast gravitational wave parameter estimation without compromises
Kaze W. K. Wong, Maximiliano Isi, Thomas D. P. Edwards
We present a lightweight, flexible, and high-performance framework for inferring the properties of gravitational-wave events. By combining likelihood heterodyning, automatically-di…
ripple: Differentiable and Hardware-Accelerated Waveforms for Gravitational Wave Data Analysis
Thomas D. P. Edwards, Kaze W. K. Wong, Kelvin K. H. Lam +4
We propose the use of automatic differentiation through the programming framework jax for accelerating a variety of analysis tasks throughout gravitational wave (GW) science. First…
The Effect of Mission Duration on LISA Science Objectives
Pau Amaro Seoane, Manuel Arca Sedda, Stanislav Babak +38
The science objectives of the LISA mission have been defined under the implicit assumption of a 4 yr continuous data stream. Based on the performance of LISA Pathfinder, it is now…
The US Program in Ground-Based Gravitational Wave Science: Contribution from the LIGO Laboratory
David Reitze, Rich Abbott, Carl Adams +181
Recent gravitational-wave observations from the LIGO and Virgo observatories have brought a sense of great excitement to scientists and citizens the world over. Since September 201…
