All five NSBH events are consistent with zero line-of-sight acceleration; the joint posterior for GW200105_162426 disfavors both zero LOSA and zero eccentricity at 90% credibility.
SEOBNRv6EHM is a multipolar EOB model for eccentric planar-orbit BBHs calibrated to NR simulations, showing low waveform mismatches up to eccentricity 0.9.
The gwNRHME framework constructs a multi-modal non-spinning eccentric gravitational waveform surrogate by modulating quasi-circular models with universal eccentric functions, achieving median mismatches of ~9e-5 against 156 NR waveforms.
Polynomial models for the (2,2) post-merger waveform amplitudes of eccentric non-spinning binary black holes are constructed from numerical-relativity data as functions of symmetric mass ratio and two merger-time dynamical parameters.
Closed-form Sommerfeld factor via EFT connection matrix with analytic O(G^10) magnitude and phase for l=0,1,2 waves, plus a new RG equation for radiative multipole moments that improves waveform resummation beyond tail logarithms.
A universal anomalous dimension for multipole moments in GR is derived via two EFT methods and applied to resum short-distance logarithmic tails in binary gravitational waveforms.
Near-identity averaging transformations applied to osculating orbital elements reduce the computational cost of eccentric EOB inspirals by up to two orders of magnitude while maintaining accuracy for moderate to large eccentricities at NNLO.
SEOBNRv6EHM reduces parameter biases for eccentric binaries versus prior models and shows mild support for eccentricity in five catalog events plus comparable unbound fits for three high-mass events.
SPRING framework propagates pre-merger information into spectral-level ringdown inference, improving Bayesian support for an agnostic two-damped-sinusoid model on GW250114 by ΔlnB ~5-10 while keeping remnant posteriors consistent with IMR estimates.
pyEFPEHM extends prior PN models to include higher-order quasi-circular phasing, generalized precession solutions, and eccentric corrections up to 1PN in selected multipoles for eccentric precessing binaries with matter effects.
FluxMC integrates flow matching with parallel tempering MCMC to converge in under five hours on high-fidelity IMRPhenomHM waveforms for massive black hole binaries, where standard methods fail after hundreds of hours and produce two to three orders of magnitude higher distributional error.
A framework using scale separation in the Isaacson description defines observable gravitational memory rise for compact binary coalescences, providing a basis for hypothesis testing in LISA data.
GW250114 data constrains GR deviations in merger amplitude to 10% and frequency to 4% at 90% CL, with first bounds on the (4,4) mode frequency at 6%.
Extended 1PA self-force waveforms for slowly spinning primary and precessing secondary, with re-summed 1PAT1R variant showing improved accuracy against NR for q ≳ 5 and |χ1| ≲ 0.1.
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.
BHPTNRSur2dq1e3 is a new surrogate model for spinning intermediate-mass-ratio black hole binary gravitational waves, constructed from ppBHPT training data with domain decomposition for retrograde modes and calibrated to NR simulations.
Bayesian inference on LVK O1-O3 events with eccentric aligned-spin waveforms yields log10 Bayes factors of 1.77-4.75 favoring eccentricity for GW200129, GW190701 and GW200208_22, and >99.5% probability that at least one of 57 events is eccentric under an astrophysically motivated rate prior.
Hierarchical Bayesian inference on GWTC-5.0 constrains the memory enhancement factor to 0.26 with large uncertainties consistent with the GR value of 1 and forecasts that 2000 detections are needed for a 1σ constraint away from zero.
Refined propagation prescription for quasinormal modes excited by plunging particles confirms a bounce radius at r_*=0 and yields accurate reproduction of the post-bounce oscillatory waveform component from first principles.
Bayesian parameter estimation on simulated LISA data establishes conditions for detecting displacement memory in MBHB events and projects observation rates from population models.
Self-force calculations of radiated gravitational wave energy from hyperbolic orbits around Schwarzschild black holes agree with post-Minkowskian results for large impact parameters and velocities up to 0.7c, with further comparisons to post-Newtonian and numerical relativity.
GW250114 data confirm the remnant black hole ringdown frequencies lie within 30% of Kerr predictions and that the final horizon area is larger than the sum of the progenitors' areas to high credibility.
