Spectral sirens cosmology from binary black holes populations with sharper mass features
Tom Bertheas, Vasco Gennari, Danièle Steer +1
Spectral-sirens inference enables the extraction of cosmological parameters from gravitational-wave data alone, without electromagnetic counterparts or galaxy catalogs. We introduc…
An Introduction to Gravitational Wave Theory
Simone Speziale, Danièle A. Steer
Introduction to the theoretical foundations of gravitational waves: from general relativity to detection and binary system waveforms. Lecture notes prepared for the MaNiTou summer…
The Science of the Einstein Telescope
Adrian Abac, Raul Abramo, Simone Albanesi +485
Einstein Telescope (ET) is the European project for a gravitational-wave (GW) observatory of third-generation. In this paper we present a comprehensive discussion of its science ob…
Scalar kicks and memory
Philippe Brax, Danièle A. Steer
A scalar field coupled conformally and disformally to matter affects both the linear memory effect for binary systems on hyperbolic orbits, as well as the kick velocity for binarie…
Practical approaches to analyzing PTA data: Cosmic strings with six pulsars
Hippolyte Quelquejay Leclere, Pierre Auclair, Stanislav Babak +69
We search for a stochastic gravitational wave background (SGWB) generated by a network of cosmic strings using six millisecond pulsars from Data Release 2 (DR2) of the European Pul…
