Applying the metallicity-dependent binary fraction to double white dwarf formation: Implications for LISA
Sarah Thiele, Katelyn Breivik, Robyn E. Sanderson +1
Short-period double white dwarf (DWD) binaries will be the most prolific source of gravitational waves (GWs) for the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA). DWDs with GW frequen…
LEGWORK: A python package for computing the evolution and detectability of stellar-origin gravitational-wave sources with space-based detectors
Tom Wagg, Katelyn Breivik, Selma E. de Mink
We present LEGWORK (LISA Evolution and Gravitational Wave Orbit Kit), an open-source Python package for making predictions about stellar-origin gravitational wave sources and their…
Weighing the Darkness II: Astrometric Measurement of Partial Orbits with Gaia
Jeff J. Andrews, Katelyn Breivik, Chirag Chawla +2
Over the course of several years, stars trace helical trajectories as they traverse across the sky due to the combined effects of proper motion and parallax. It is well known that…
Gaia May Detect Hundreds of Well-characterised Stellar Black Holes
Chirag Chawla, Sourav Chatterjee, Katelyn Breivik +3
Detection of black holes (BHs) with detached luminous companions (LCs) can be instrumental in connecting the BH properties with their progenitors' since the latter can be inferred…
The Effect of Mission Duration on LISA Science Objectives
Pau Amaro Seoane, Manuel Arca Sedda, Stanislav Babak +38
The science objectives of the LISA mission have been defined under the implicit assumption of a 4 yr continuous data stream. Based on the performance of LISA Pathfinder, it is now…
Modeling Dense Star Clusters in the Milky Way and Beyond with the Cluster Monte Carlo Code
Carl L. Rodriguez, Newlin C. Weatherford, Scott C. Coughlin +10
We describe the public release of the Cluster Monte Carlo Code (CMC) a parallel, star-by-star -body code for modeling dense star clusters. CMC treats collisional stellar dynamic…
