Gravitational Wave Events: Detection and Present Status

Gravitational Wave Events: Detection and Present Status

Gravitational Wave Events: Detection and Present Status Chirping gravitational wave signals from compact binary Coalescence were detected for the first time during LIGO/Virgo O1 and O2 observing runs. The majority of the events reported thus far came from binary...

White dwarfs as Advanced Physics laboratories: the axion case

White dwarfs as Advanced Physics laboratories: the axion case The shape of the luminosity function of white dwarfs (WDLF) is sensitive to the characteristic cooling time and, therefore, it can be used to test the existence of additional sources or sinks of energy such...

Induced gravitational waves in general backgrounds

Induced gravitational waves in general backgrounds Gravitational waves are unavoidably generated at second order in cosmological perturbation theory. In some cases, such induced gravitational waves might be observable by future space-based gravitational waves...
