Inference of cosmological parameters from gravitational waves: Applications to second generation interferometers

TL;DR: In this article, a formalism based on Bayesian inference is developed to facilitate the inclusion of all assumptions and prior information about a GW source within a single data analysis framework, which guarantees the minimization of information loss and the possibility of including naturally event-specific knowledge (such as the sky position for a gamma ray burst--GW coincident observation) in the analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Demonstrating the feasibility of probing the neutron star equation of state with second-generation gravitational wave detectors

TL;DR: This work presents the first fully Bayesian investigation of the equation of state of neutron stars using tidal effects in a binary inspiral, and finds that direct gravitational-wave detection will provide a unique probe of neutron-star structure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mock data challenge for the Einstein Gravitational-Wave Telescope

TL;DR: In this article, the authors simulate the GW signals from a cosmological population of BNS and ask the following questions: Does this population create a confusion background that limits ET's ability to detect foreground sources? How efficient are current algorithms in discriminating overlapping BNS signals? Is it possible to discern the presence of a population of signals in the data by cross correlating data from different detectors in the ET observatory?
