Analyzing black-hole ringdowns
Maximiliano Isi, Will M. Farr
A perturbed black hole rings down by emitting gravitational waves in tones with specific frequencies and durations. Such tones encode prized information about the geometry of the s…
A follow-up on intermediate-mass black hole candidates in the second LIGO-Virgo observing run with the Bayes Coherence Ratio
Avi Vajpeyi, Rory Smith, Eric Thrane +7
The detection of an intermediate-mass black hole population ( ) will provide clues to their formation environments (e.g., disks of active galactic nuclei, glo…
Hints of spin-orbit resonances in the binary black hole population
Vijay Varma, Sylvia Biscoveanu, Maximiliano Isi +2
Binary black hole spin measurements from gravitational wave observations can reveal the binary's evolutionary history. In particular, the spin orientations of the component black h…
Measuring binary black hole orbital-plane spin orientations
Vijay Varma, Maximiliano Isi, Sylvia Biscoveanu +2
Binary black hole spins are among the key observables for gravitational wave astronomy. Among the spin parameters, their orientations within the orbital plane, , and $Δϕ…
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…
Recent LIGO-Virgo discoveries
Maximiliano Isi
The LIGO and Virgo gravitational-wave detectors carried out the first half of their third observing run from April through October 2019. During this period, they detected 39 new si…
