TL;DR: In this article, the expected Shapiro time delay, amplification, and deflection during an eclipse was used to infer the mass distribution of the eclipsing body, and the authors identified continuous gravitational waves from neutron stars as the best candidates to detect this effect.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors simulated the GWs from an astrophysically motivated population of binary neutron-star (BNS) coalescences and examined the accuracy of parameter inferences in early advanced-detector era.

TL;DR: The results of the Gravity Probe B relativity science mission published in 2011 Phys. Rev. Lett. 106 221101 required a rather sophisticated analysis of experimental data due to several unexpected complications discovered on-orbit.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors argue that it is often possible to have the best of both worlds: a Bayesian approach that incorporates prior information and correctly marginalizes over uninteresting parameters, providing accurate posterior probability distribution functions, but carried out on a simple grid at a low computational cost, comparable to the inexpensive predictive techniques.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors compute the sensitivity of various future ground-based detectors to seed black-hole mergers, and use this to explore the number and properties of the events that each detector might see in three years of observation.
