Abstract: Gravitational-wave data from interferometric detectors like LIGO, Virgo and KAGRA is routinely analyzed by rapid matched-filtering algorithms to detect compact binary merger events and rapidly infer their spatial position,…
Location of the proposed internship IJCLab – “Astroparticles, Astrophysics and Cosmology” pole – Gravitational Waves group Description Context: Three-mirror optical cavities exhibit properties very different from usual two-mirror Fabry-Perot cavities.…
Location of the proposed internship IJCLab – “Astroparticles, Astrophysics and Cosmology” pole – Gravitational Waves group Description Ground-based gravitational-wave (GW) detectors use kilometre-long Michelson interferometers to detect relative GW strain…
Proposal Ground-based detectors have been directly detecting gravitational waves since 2015. Their outstanding performances are allowed by improvement with respect to the basic operating principle of the Michelson interferometer. Suspended…
ABSTRACT: GRB 230812B is a bright and relatively nearby (z=0.36) long gamma-ray burst that has generated significant interest in the community and therefore has been subsequently observed over the entire…
We present Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (Fermi-GBM) and Swift Burst Alert Telescope (Swift-BAT) searches for gamma-ray/X-ray counterparts to gravitational wave (GW) candidate events identified during the third observing run of…
GW170817 - GRB 170817A provided the first observation of gravitational waves from a neutron star merger with associated transient counterparts across the entire electromagnetic spectrum. This discovery demonstrated the long-hypothesized…
We present a number of approaches, currently in experimental development in our research groups, toward the general problem of macroscopic quantum mechanics, i.e., manifestations of quantum noise and quantum fluctations…
