GW250114 data confirm the remnant is consistent with a Kerr black hole and bound the dominant quadrupolar mode frequency to within a few percent of the GR prediction, with constraints tighter than prior multi-event catalogs.
GWTC-4 data analysis yields a pair-instability mass gap lower edge at 44.3^{+5.9}_{-3.5} M_⊙, an S-factor of 268^{+195}_{-116} keV b for ^{12}C(α,γ)^{16}O, and two populations supporting both direct formation and hierarchical mergers.
Introduces catability metric rooted in nonlinear squeezing for detecting cat-like features in quantum superpositions, shown numerically robust to loss.
Thermal aberrations induce low-pass frequency dynamics for quadratic wavefront mismatches and high-pass dynamics for higher-order aberrations, degrading squeezed states differently in current versus future gravitational wave detectors.
No sub-solar mass binary merger candidates found in LIGO data from May 2023 to January 2024, yielding merger rate upper limits of 110-10000 Gpc^{-3}yr^{-1} and constraints on primordial black hole dark matter fractions.
The dissipative quantum limit is extended from stationary to general non-stationary quantum sensors.
