An analytical 2PN solution is constructed for the orbital and spin dynamics of eccentric, arbitrarily spinning binary black holes, with spin oscillations retained only at 1.5PN accuracy.
Score-based diffusion models learn the empirical distribution of real LIGO noise to enable unbiased gravitational-wave parameter estimation under only an additivity assumption.
Bilby-antiglitch jointly models astrophysical signals and quasi-physical glitches to recover true source properties from simulated gravitational wave data contaminated by loud non-Gaussian transients.
92% of 91 LIGO black hole mergers favor non-zero V_GW, constraining bound remnants to at most 8% and finding no cosmological handedness preference with average near zero.
No evidence for core-collapse formed low-spin IMBHs in GWTC-4, with 90% upper limit on merger rate of 0.077 Gpc^{-3} yr^{-1}, low-spin BH mass truncation at 65 solar masses consistent with pair-instability gap lower edge, and high-spin IMBHs from hierarchical mergers.
In Kerr spacetime, the Frenet-Serret precession frequency for timelike trajectories remains finite near the horizon in horizon-penetrating coordinates, demonstrating that Boyer-Lindquist divergences are coordinate effects dependent on the trajectory being timelike.

Gyroscopic Precession in Axisymmetric Kerr Spacetime: Horizon Regularity and Coordinate Effects
In Kerr spacetime, the Frenet-Serret precession frequency for timelike trajectories remains finite near the horizon in horizon-penetrating coordinates, demonstrating that Boyer-Lindquist divergences are coordinate effects dependent on the trajectory being timelike.
