Multimessenger signatures of compact binaries
Gravitational waves and electromagnetic observations provide complementary views into some of the most extreme objects in the Universe. In this thesis, I present studies of multimessenger compact binaries from two angles: electromagnetic follow-up of gravitational-waves, and gravitational-wave …

Binary Neutron Star Mergers: Gravitational-wave Measurements of Their Parameters and the Nuclear Equation of State
… important to understand the engine driving the electromagnetic counterpart to the gravitational-wave signal. We describe a new implementation of a fast likelihood model for gravitational-wave parameter estimation. We demonstrate that this likelihood allows analysis of binary neutron star signals …

Black holes and how to find them : on the detection of compact objects at several scales
… black holes at different scales. The following three chapters correspond to different research projects regarding black hole detection. The second chapter presents the kinematic detection of a supermassive black hole at the center of the dwarf spherical galaxy Leo I. Chapter three …

Bayesian methods for gravitational waves and neural networks
… to localise a source position on the sky for electromagnetic follow-up. Bayesian criteria are also applied to separating real signals from glitches in the detectors. These same tools and lessons can also be applied to the type of data expected from planned space-based detectors. Using …
