Estimating False Alarm Rates of Sub-Dominant Quasi-normal Modes in GW190521

Collin D. Capano, Jahed Abedi, Shilpa Kastha +6

A major aim of gravitational wave astronomy is to test observationally the Kerr nature of black holes. The strongest such test, with minimal additional assumptions, is provided by…

Model systematics in time domain tests of binary black hole evolution

Shilpa Kastha, Collin D. Capano, Julian Westerweck +3

We perform several consistency tests between different phases of binary black hole dynamics; the inspiral, the merger, and the ringdown on the gravitational wave events GW150914 an…

GWSkyNet-Multi: A Machine Learning Multi-Class Classifier for LIGO-Virgo Public Alerts

Thomas C. Abbott, Eitan Buffaz, Nicholas Vieira +4

Compact object mergers which produce both detectable gravitational waves and electromagnetic emission can provide valuable insights into the neutron star equation of state, the ten…

Prospects for measuring off-axis spins of binary black holes with Plus-era gravitational-wave detectors

Alan M. Knee, Jess McIver, Miriam Cabero

The mass and spin properties of binary black holes (BBHs) inferred from their gravitational-wave signatures reveal important clues about how these systems form. BBHs originating fr…

3-OGC: Catalog of gravitational waves from compact-binary mergers

Alexander H. Nitz, Collin D. Capano, Sumit Kumar +5

We present the third Open Gravitational-wave Catalog (3-OGC) of compact-binary coalescences, based on the analysis of the public LIGO and Virgo data from 2015 through 2019 (O1, O2,…
