Indistinguishability criterion and estimating the presence of biases
read the original abstract
In these notes, we comment on the standard indistinguishability criterion often used in the gravitational wave community to set accuracy requirements on waveforms. Revisiting the hypotheses under which it is derived, we propose a correction to it. Moreover, we outline how the approach we proposed in a recent work in the context of tests of general relativity can be used for this same purpose.

Lessons from binary dynamics of inspiralling equal-mass boson-star mergers
Numerical simulations of equal-mass boson-star mergers reveal larger waveform deviations from black-hole binaries in late inspiral and merger, plus odd multipole excitations for certain scalar-field phases, with some ...

The diffraction-lensing interpretation of GW231123 with astrophysical priors
GW231123 is better fit by a lower-mass merger diffracted by an isolated ~1000 M_sun lens, but astrophysical priors and a frequentist rate estimate make this lensing interpretation unlikely.

Fast neural network surrogate for multimodal effective-one-body gravitational waveforms from generically precessing compact binaries
Neural network surrogate approximates precessing compact binary gravitational waveforms up to 1000x faster than the base EOB model with validated accuracy.

Systematic biases in parameter estimation on LISA binaries. II. The effect of excluding higher harmonics for spin-aligned, high-mass binaries
Omitting higher-order waveform harmonics can cause severe, spin-dependent parameter biases for massive LISA black-hole binaries, including confident localization in the wrong sky region.

GW230814: investigation of a loud gravitational-wave signal observed with a single detector
GW230814 is a binary black hole merger seen in a single detector, yielding the first confident l=4 mode detection and a ringdown damping anomaly that noise or waveform models can explain.

Inspiral tests of general relativity and waveform geometry
The power of ppE-style GR tests comes from waveform geometry: GR parameter biases absorb most of any smooth phase deviation, and SVD finds the few orthogonal directions that remain.
