Probing Extreme-Density Matter with Gravitational Wave Observations of Binary Neutron Star Merger Remnants

David Radice, Sebastiano Bernuzzi, Walter Del Pozzo +2

We present a proof-of-concept study, based on numerical-relativity simulations, of how gravitational waves (GWs) from neutron star merger remnants can probe the nature of matter at…

Probing the assembly history and dynamical evolution of massive black hole binaries with pulsar timing arrays

Siyuan Chen, Hannah Middleton, Alberto Sesana +2

We consider the inverse problem in pulsar timing array (PTA) analysis, investigating what astrophysical information about the underlying massive black hole binary (MBHB) population…

Upper Limits on the Stochastic Gravitational-Wave Background from Advanced LIGO's First Observing Run

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +992

A wide variety of astrophysical and cosmological sources are expected to contribute to a stochastic gravitational-wave background. Following the observations of GW150914 and GW1512…

Efficient computation of the gravitational wave spectrum emitted by eccentric massive black hole binaries in stellar environments

Siyuan Chen, Alberto Sesana, Walter Del Pozzo

We present a fast and versatile method to calculate the characteristic spectrum of the gravitational wave background (GWB) emitted by a population of eccentric massive black…

All-sky search for short gravitational-wave bursts in the first Advanced LIGO run

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +986

We present the results from an all-sky search for short-duration gravitational waves in the data of the first run of the Advanced LIGO detectors between September 2015 and January…
