Technique - (1) Gravitational wave data analysis

Type: Computational

Description: Bayesian inference, matched filtering, and parameter estimation on LIGO/Virgo strain data.

Department(s)/lab(s): Institute of Astronomy / DAMTP | Moore Group @ Cambridge
Summary:

Moore develops novel Bayesian data-analysis techniques for gravitational-wave time-series data from merging black hole binaries, using these signals to probe astrophysics and fundamental physics, including tests of general relativity and constraints from future space-based (LISA) observations.
