Which is which? Identification of the two compact objects in gravitational-wave binaries
Davide Gerosa, Viola De Renzis, Federica Tettoni +3
Compact objects observed in gravitational-wave astronomy so far always come in pairs and never individually. Identifying the two components of a binary system is a delicate operati…

Forecasting the population properties of merging black holes
Viola De Renzis, Francesco Iacovelli, Davide Gerosa +2
Third-generation gravitational-wave detectors will observe up to millions of merging binary black holes. With such a vast dataset, stacking events into population analyses will arg…

Residual eccentricity as a systematic uncertainty on the formation channels of binary black holes
Giulia Fumagalli, Isobel Romero-Shaw, Davide Gerosa +3
Resolving the formation channel(s) of merging binary black holes is a key goal in gravitational-wave astronomy. The orbital eccentricity is believed to be a precious tracer of the…
