Abstract The Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) has the potential to reveal wonders
about the fundamental theory of nature at play in the extreme gravity regime, where the …

Gravitational waves enable tests of general relativity in the highly dynamical and strong-field
regime. Using events detected by LIGO-Virgo up to 1 October 2019, we evaluate the …

This Horizon Study describes a next-generation ground-based gravitational-wave
observatory: Cosmic Explorer. With ten times the sensitivity of Advanced LIGO, Cosmic …

The ever-increasing number of detections of gravitational waves (GWs) from compact
binaries by the Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo detectors allows us to perform ever …

The Virgo detector, based at the EGO (European Gravitational Observatory) and located in
Cascina (Pisa), played a significant role in the development of the gravitational-wave …

Gravitational wave observations of compact binaries allow us to test general relativity (and
modifications thereof) in the strong and highly dynamical field regime of gravity. Here, we …

Massive vector fields feature in several areas of particle physics, eg, as carriers of weak
interactions, dark matter candidates, or an effective description of photons in a plasma. Here …

Scalar fields coupled to the Gauss-Bonnet invariant can undergo a tachyonic instability,
leading to spontaneous scalarization of black holes. Studies of this effect have so far been …

Recent gravitational wave observations allow us to probe gravity in the strong and
dynamical field regime. In this paper, we focus on testing Einstein-dilation Gauss-Bonnet …

In this work we introduce a new theoretical framework for Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet theories of
gravity, which results to particularly elegant, functionally simple and transparent gravitational …
