Journal ArticleDOI
Maximum Entropy for Gravitational Wave Data Analysis: Inferring the Physical Parameters of Core-Collapse Supernovae
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors infer the gravitational radiation waveform of a core-collapse event from noisy observations in a network of two or more LIGO-like gravitational wave detectors and constrain these source properties.
Journal ArticleDOI
The arduous journey to black hole formation in potential gamma-ray burst progenitors
TL;DR: In this article, a quantitative study on the properties at death of fast-rotating massive stars evolved at low-metallicity is presented, and the potential for the formation of a black hole and a Keplerian disk (namely, a collapsar or a proto-magnetar).
Journal ArticleDOI
The Black Hole Formation Probability
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explore the probability that a star will make a BH as a function of its ZAMS mass, and demonstrate how the probability of BH formation changes with various observational and theoretical uncertainties, including spin, binarity, or even stochastic differences in the stellar structure near core collapse.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gravitational waveforms for neutron star binaries from binary black hole simulations

TL;DR: In this article, the post-Newtonian (PN) tidal effects were added to full numerical simulations of binary black holes (BBHs) to replace the non-tidal terms in the PN expansion with BBH results.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evolution of the magnetized, neutrino-cooled accretion disk in the aftermath of a black hole-neutron star binary merger

TL;DR: In this paper, the Spectral Einstein Code (SpEC) was used to simulate the postmerger evolution of a magnetized black hole-neutron star binary system.
