First session on contributed talks
This work addresses the inverse problem of the reconstruction of the impinging gravitational-wave (GW) polarizations $(h_+, h_\times)$ from the interferometric detector measurements. It is specifically focused on situations where the polarization pattern is non-stationary and evolves over the duration of the signal. For instance, this is the case for GW signals from compact binaries...
This work introduces a method to infer the Hubble constant H0 by combining dark siren gravitational wave sources (without electromagnetic counterparts) with the stochastic gravitational wave background (SGWB). Traditional H0 measurement techniques, such as the local distance ladder and cosmic microwave background observations, face significant challenges and yield conflicting results....
Extreme Mass Ratio Inspirals (EMRIs) are key targets expected to be observed by the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) mission. Unresolvable EMRI signals contribute to forming a gravitational wave background (GWB).
Characterizing the statistical features of the GWB from EMRIs is of great importance, as EMRIs will ubiquitously affect large segments of the inference scheme.

In this talk, we will discuss the impact of data gaps on parameter estimation in the context of the Laser Interferometer Space Antennae (LISA). Data gaps, for LISA, are unavoidable: whether it is due to antennae repointing due to drift in the orbit, or instrumental malfunctions that are then masked, it is paramount that we can account for data gaps in our parameter estimation pipelines.
