Finding the host galaxies of stellar-mass compact binary mergers will open a new window for studying their formation histories and measuring key cosmological parameters, such as the Hubble constant. T…
We present KAYRA, an end-to-end karyotyping system that operates inside the operational constraints of a clinical cytogenetic laboratory. KAYRA is architected as a containerized microservice pipeline …
Primordial black holes (PBHs) provide a compelling interpretation for the binary black holes (BBHs) observed by ground-based gravitational-wave (GW) detectors, especially for those BBHs in the theoret…
Gravitational-wave (GW) observations of compact binary coalescences (CBCs) are traditionally interpreted under the assumption that the binary evolves in isolation. However, in realistic astrophysical …
Systematic errors in the parameter estimation (PE) of gravitational wave (GW) mergers can arise from various sources, including waveform systematics, noise mischaracterization, data analysis artifacts…
Recent LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA (LVK) analyses have revealed complex structure in the binary black hole (BBH) population, including distinct features in the primary mass spectrum and nontrivial spin-mass corr…
Primordial black holes (PBHs) may form an initially clustered population depending on their production mechanism. Motivated by binary black-hole merger events observed by gravitational-wave interferom…
The gravitational wave event GW231123, with component black hole masses lying within or above the pair-instability mass gap, poses a significant challenge to current stellar evolution models. In this …
The recent O4a release from the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA collaboration, which significantly increased the number of gravitational-wave (GW) detections, reveals features with potentially important astrophysica…
We show that the LIGO--Virgo--KAGRA (LVK) verification of Hawking area law carries profound consequences for quantum gravity if such a law is postulated to hold exactly. The observed mergers can be pr…
The cosmological principle asserts that the Universe is homogeneous and isotropic on large enough scales. However, alternative cosmological models can bring about anisotropies through local inhomogene…
Ground-based gravitational wave detectors are now routinely surveying the dark Universe, finding hundreds of collisions between compact objects such as black holes and neutron stars. However, terrestr…
Gravitational-wave events are interpreted in terms of Bayesian posteriors for their source properties inferred under unphysical reference priors. Though these parameter estimates are important interme…
Star evolution models predict the lightest compact objects in the universe to have masses greater than that of the Sun. Nonetheless, alternative scenarios could lead to the formation of sub-solar mass…
The addition of KAGRA to the global gravitational-wave detector network introduces new baselines and complementary antenna response patterns that can enhance sky localization for compact binary coales…
We model the formation and retention of the most massive black hole (BH) in 47~Tuc using the semi-analytical code \texttt{cBHBd}, coupling cluster evolution with binary BH dynamics and computing merge…
The Majoron is a hypothetical (pseudo) Nambu-Goldstone boson arising from the spontaneous breaking of a global lepton number symmetry, and is known as a candidate for dark matter in our Universe. In t…
Data from gravitational-wave (GW) detectors often contains a high rate of non-Gaussian transient noise, known as glitches. The parameters estimated from GW signals coinciding with detector glitches ar…
Short and long-short gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are widely believed to be powered by neutron star mergers. In this work, we calculate local rate of such GRBs and find a relatively high value of $\sim 786…
When selecting a model to characterize an astrophysical population, it is crucial to assess whether that model fits the data and, if not, how it can be improved. To this end, posterior predictive chec…
