🎶 Gravitational-wave detectors can now “autotune” their signals
Crucial contributions by @mpi_grav researchers: How “off-key” detector calibration can bias signal-based tests of Einstein’s general theory of relativity.
ℹ️ https://www.aei.mpg.de/1445425/gravitational-wave-detectors-can-now-autotune-their-signals
For the first time, the collaborations of @LIGO, Virgo, and KAGRA have demonstrated a new method to improve the sensitivity of its international detector network.
The new method called “astrophysical calibration” resembles auto-tune used in music production. It helps to find and correct “off-key” calibrations of the highly precise laser instruments, which can bias the astrophysical interpretation of the measured signals.
A new publication successfully demonstrates the method using two loud gravitational-wave signals from binary black hole coalescences.

📣 New selected research highlight ✨
A clearer view of gravitational-wave signals in pulsar timing arrays
An international team led by researchers at the @mpi_grav in Hannover, Germany, developed an improved noise model to analyze data from the European Pulsar Timing Array.
By addressing known limitations of how the noise contamination is modeled and therefore included in the analysis, the researchers have mitigated a tension between earlier studies of the data and the theoretical predictions.
According to their improved analysis, published in Nature Communications today, the EPTA data now better agree with a gravitational-wave background from coalescing black hole binaries in circular orbits. Additionally, the inferred background amplitude is in less tension with theoretical expectations.

#Scientists Just Got an Unprecedented Glimpse into the Nature of Reality
#GravitationalWaves are ripples in #spacetime that are produced by energetic cosmic events, such as #supernovas or mergers between #blackholes. Einstein predicted their existence in 1916 general theory of relativity, though he was doubtful humans could ever develop technologies sensitive enough to detect them. These waves oscillate at tiny distances that are thousands of times smaller than a proton.

🎉 Happy belated birthday, GW230529!
Two years and a few days ago, the @LIGO Livingston gravitational-wave detector observed a remarkable gravitational-wave signal.
ℹ️ https://www.aei.mpg.de/1138125/mysterious-object-in-the-gap
Detected soon after the beginning of the fourth joint observing run of the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA collaborations, the signal came from the merger of a compact object with 1.3 to 2.1 times the mass of our Sun with another compact object with 2.6 to 4.7 times the solar mass.
Astronomers believe that the lighter object is a neutron star and the heavier is a lightweight black hole.
How that lightweight black hole formed is unknown. Its masse falls into the “lower mass gap” between the heaviest neutron stars and the lightest black holes.
