Narrowing RIFT: Focused simulation-based-inference for interpreting exceptional GW sources
Katelyn J. Wagner, R. O'Shaughnessy, A. Yelikar +6
The Rapid Iterative FiTting (RIFT) parameter inference algorithm provides a simulation-based inference approach to efficient, highly-parallelized parameter inference for GW sources…
Waveform systematics in gravitational-wave inference of signals from binary neutron star merger models incorporating higher order modes information
A. B. Yelikar, R. O' Shaughnessy, J. Lange +1
Accurate information from gravitational wave signals from coalescing binary neutron stars provides essential input to downstream interpretations, including inference of the neutron…
Expanding RIFT: Improving performance for GW parameter inference
J. Wofford, A. Yelikar, H. Gallagher +10
The Rapid Iterative FiTting (RIFT) parameter inference algorithm provides a framework for efficient, highly-parallelized parameter inference for GW sources. In this paper, we summa…
Eccentricity estimation for five binary black hole mergers with higher-order gravitational wave modes
H. L. Iglesias, J. Lange, I. Bartos +9
The detection of orbital eccentricity for a binary black hole system via gravitational waves is a key signature to distinguish between the possible binary origins. The identificati…
Assessing and marginalizing over compact binary coalescence waveform systematics with RIFT
A. Z. Jan, A. B. Yelikar, J. Lange +1
As Einstein's equations for binary compact object inspiral have only been approximately or intermittently solved by analytic or numerical methods, the models used to infer paramete…
Eccentricity Estimate for Black Hole Mergers with Numerical Relativity Simulations
V. Gayathri, J. Healy, J. Lange +7
The origin of black hole mergers discovered by the LIGO and Virgo gravitational-wave observatories is currently unknown. GW190521 is the heaviest black hole merger detected so far.…
Layout and Performance of HPK Prototype LGAD Sensors for the High-Granularity Timing Detector
X. Yang, S. Alderweireldt, N. Atanov +76
The High-Granularity Timing Detector is a detector proposed for the ATLAS Phase II upgrade. The detector, based on the Low-Gain Avalanche Detector (LGAD) technology will cover the…
All-sky search for long-duration gravitational wave transients in the first Advanced LIGO observing run
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +990
We present the results of a search for long-duration gravitational wave transients in the data of the LIGO Hanford and LIGO Livingston second generation detectors between September…
Directional limits on persistent gravitational waves from Advanced LIGO's first observing run
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +993
