Joint inference for gravitational-wave signal and noise glitch: Method and application

Shun Yin Cheung, Rhiannon Udall, Derek Davis +2

Non-Gaussian noise transients ("glitches") in gravitational-wave observatories degrade our ability to accurately perform astrophysical inference. We present the analysis pipeline b…

A Gaussian process framework for testing general relativity with gravitational waves

Lachlan Passenger, Shun Yin Cheung, Nir Guttman +3

Gravitational-wave astronomy provides a promising avenue for the discovery of new physics beyond general relativity as it probes extreme curvature and ultra-relativistic dynamics.…

GW231123: extreme spins or microglitches?

Anarya Ray, Sharan Banagiri, Eric Thrane +1

The recently reported binary black hole merger, GW231123, has unusual properties that make it hard to explain astrophysically. Parameter estimation studies are consistent with maxi…

A search for extra polarisations using a Gaussian process in Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalogue 3

Shun Yin Cheung, Lachlan Passenger, Paul D. Lasky +1

General relativity predicts that gravitational waves are described by two polarisation states: the plus state and cross state. However, alternate theories of gravity a…

Progress toward the detection of the gravitational-wave background from stellar-mass binary black holes: a mock data challenge

Xiao-Xiao Kou, Muhammed Saleem, Vuk Mandic +2

While the third LIGO--Virgo gravitational-wave transient catalog includes 90 signals, it is believed that binary black holes merge somewhere in the Universe every…

Significant challenges for astrophysical inference with next-generation gravitational-wave observatories

A. Makai Baker, Paul D. Lasky, Eric Thrane +1

The next generation of gravitational-wave observatories will achieve unprecedented strain sensitivities with an expanded observing band. They will detect binary ne…
