New paper comparing effective-one-body and Numerical-Relativity scattering angle for spinning black holes. Check it out at https://arxiv.org/abs/2307.06999
New paper on the construction and validation of EOB waveform through merger and ringdown for eccentric binaries in the small mass ratio limit, i.e. a particle inspiralling and plunging on a Schwarzschild black hole. Check it out at https://arxiv.org/abs/2305.19336
Most recent version of the TEOBResumS quasi-circular with improved accuracy and EOB/NR unfaithfulness at most of order 0.001. Detailed study of analytic systematics.Check it out at https://arxiv.org/abs/2304.09662 .
Alessandro speaks on GW190521 as dynamical capture of two nonspinning black holes, presenting our Nature Astronomy paper. Here we use our TEOBResumS waveform model to analyze GW190521 under te assumption the signal was generated by a dynamical encounter of two black holes instead of two objects on a bound, quasi-circular, orbit.
Within the European Project InterTwin we are about to open a position (Assegno di Ricerca) for 1+1 years on the topic: Characterisation of detector noise for Gravitational Wave experiments using Generative Adversarial Networks. The sensitivity of GW interferometers is limited by noise. We will use Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) to produce a Digital Twin (DT)…
