Gravitational Radiation from Superradiant Instabilities of Rotating Black Holes
… field. We focus on the prospects of the future space-based gravitational wave detector, Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA), and the current version of ground-based detector, Advanced Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (AdLIGO), to detect or constrain scalars with mass in …

Topics in gravitational-wave astronomy: Theoretical studies, source modelling and statistical methods
… are an important class of source for future space-based detectors such as the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna. Two separate topics are explored under the third theme of data analysis. We begin with the procedure of searching for gravitational-wave signals in detector data, and propose …

Gravitational Wave prediction from Galactic binary populations for LISA
… of gravitational waves (GWs) detectable by the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA). Detecting these sources provides an opportunity to unravel critical details about binary star evolution and the broader history of the Milky Way. Using results from the Binary Population and Spectral …

Gyroscropes Orbiting Gargantuan Black Holes: Spinning Secondaries in Extreme Mass Ratio Inspirals
… waves. These sources will be detectable by the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA), which is a planned space-based gravitational-wave observatory. At lowest order, the secondary body (smaller black hole) follows a geodesic of the more massive black hole's spacetime. Post-geodesic effects …

Investigating correlations in time delay interferometry combinations of LISA data
The detection of Gravitational Waves using the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) will open whole new areas of physics and astrophysics for exploration. The lower frequency signals detected by the antenna will allow us to probe gravitational wave sources that are inaccessible with current …

Torsion Pendulum Testing of the LISA Charge Management System
The Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) will be the first gravitational wave detector in space. The European Space Agency has selected LISA as a large mission scheduled to launch in the mid-2030s. The sensitivity of LISA to gravitational waves is limited at low frequencies by force …

Delta-development of a critical space mechanism based on on-ground and in-flight testing experience
… waves. These weak ripples in the fabric of spacetime offer a new way to listen to the cosmos. Unlike traditional astronomy, gravitational-wave unlocks the observation of some of the most energetic processes in the Universe. The first direct detection occurred in September 2015, when two …

Free-fall of LISA Test Masses: a new torsion pendulum to test translational acceleration
… high-sensitivity, low-frequency interferometric space-borne gravitational wave observatory. It promises wonderful possibilities in terms of the number and variety of observable sources, many of which will provide a stable signal in the LISA band with a huge Signal-to-Noise Ratio. Moreover, …
