Inferring Parameters of GW170502: The Loudest Intermediate-mass Black Hole Trigger in LIGO's O1/O2 data
Richard Udall, Karan Jani, Jacob Lange +5
Gravitational wave (GW) measurements provide the most robust constraints of the mass of astrophysical black holes. Using state-of-the-art GW signal models and a unique parameter es…
Impact of subdominant modes on the interpretation of gravitational-wave signals from heavy binary black hole systems
Feroz H. Shaik, Jacob Lange, Scott E. Field +5
Over the past year, a handful of new gravitational wave models have been developed to include multiple harmonic modes thereby enabling for the first time fully Bayesian inference s…
Inspiral-Merger-Ringdown Consistency Tests with Higher Modes on Gravitational Signals from the Second Observing Run of LIGO and Virgo
Matteo Breschi, Richard O'Shaughnessy, Jacob Lange +1
Current tests of General Relativity are performed using approximations which neglect a key feature of complete solution of Einstein's theory: higher-order modes. Our analysis will…
On the properties of the massive binary black hole merger GW170729
Katerina Chatziioannou, Roberto Cotesta, Sudarshan Ghonge +53
We present a detailed investigation into the properties of GW170729, the gravitational wave with the most massive and distant source confirmed to date. We employ an extensive set o…
The second RIT binary black hole simulations catalog and its application to gravitational waves parameter estimation
James Healy, Carlos O. Lousto, Jacob Lange +3
The RIT numerical relativity group is releasing the second public catalog of black-hole-binary waveforms \url{http://ccrg.rit.edu/~RITCatalog}. This release consists of 320 accurat…
