Such joy is the privilege of scientists who manage to pioneer something unprecedentedly new, and are gifted with such an experience for their endeavours. The joy of the discovery of the unknown, this experience compensates for all the hard work leading to novelty. There are numerous walks of life, many where it is simpler to gain material wealth and financial prosperity; but the multifarious lifestyle of a scientist, the participation in symposia and conferences, the enriching discussions, the many international collaborations and fascinating encounters with great intellectuals, make the life of a scientist exciting and rich. When this scientific lifestyle is realized in a collegial, supportive and creative atmosphere, one which we aim to maintain at our institute, then all these factors combine to form an especially exciting and rewarding environment, where we recognise that we belong to a community contributing to the promotion of science and technology and thus to the development of the society. Perhaps this pleasant atmosphere contributed to our being especially successful during the past few years. Based on our achievements, we

    Probing Noncommutative Gravity with Gravitational Wave and Binary Pulsar Observations Leah Jenks,1 Kent Yagi,2 and Stephon Alexander1 1Brown Theoretical Physics Center and Department of Physics, Brown University, 182 Hope Street, Providence, Rhode Island, 02903 2Department of Physics, University of Virginia, P.O. Box 400714, Charlottesville, VA 22904-4714, USA (Dated: July 21, 2020) Noncommutative gravity is a natural method of quantizing spacetime by promoting the spacetime coordinates themselves to operators which do not commute. This approach is motivated, for exam- ple, from a quantum gravity perspective, among others. Noncommutative gravity has been tested against the binary black hole merger event GW150914. Here, we extend and improve upon such a previous analysis by (i) relaxing an assumption made on the preferred direction due to noncommuta- tivity, (ii) using posterior samples produced by the LIGO/Virgo Collaborations, (iii) consider other gravitational wave events, namely GW151226, GW170608, GW170814 and GW170817, and (iv) consider binary pulsar observations. Using Kepler's law that contains the noncommutative effect at second post-Newtonian order, we derive corrections to the gravitational waveform phase and the pericenter precession. Using the gravitational wave and double pulsar binary observations, we find bounds on a space-time noncommutative tensor θ0i in terms of the preferred frame direction with respect to the orientation of each binary. We find that the gravitational wave bounds are stronger than the binary pulsar one by an order of magnitude and the noncommutative tensor normalized by the Planck length and time is constrained to be of order unity. I. INTRODUCTION of noncommutative gravity stems from these theories.

  • GW151226: Observation of Gravitational Waves from a 22-Solar-Mass Binary Black Hole Coalescence
    week ending PRL 116, 241103 (2016) PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS 17 JUNE 2016 GW151226: Observation of Gravitational Waves from a 22-Solar-Mass Binary Black Hole Coalescence B. P. Abbott et al.* (LIGO Scientific Collaboration and Virgo Collaboration) (Received 31 May 2016; published 15 June 2016) We report the observation of a gravitational-wave signal produced by the coalescence of two stellar-mass black holes. The signal, GW151226, was observed by the twin detectors of the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) on December 26, 2015 at 03:38:53 UTC. The signal was initially identified within 70 s by an online matched-filter search targeting binary coalescences. Subsequent off-line analyses recovered GW151226 with a network signal-to-noise ratio of 13 and a significance greater than 5σ. The signal persisted in the LIGO frequency band for approximately 1 s, increasing in frequency and amplitude over about 55 cycles from 35 to 450 Hz, and reached a peak gravitational strain of 3 4þ0.7 10−22 14 2þ8.3M 7 5þ2.3M . −0.9 × . The inferred source-frame initial black hole masses are . −3.7 ⊙ and . −2.3 ⊙, 20 8þ6.1M and the final black hole mass is . −1.7 ⊙. We find that at least one of the component black holes has spin þ180 greater than 0.2. This source is located at a luminosity distance of 440−190 Mpc corresponding to a redshift 0 09þ0.03 of . −0.04 . All uncertainties define a 90% credible interval. This second gravitational-wave observation provides improved constraints on stellar populations and on deviations from general relativity.

    Associate Professor. David Coward Physics Postal address: The University of Western Australia (M013), 35 Stirling Highway, Room 2.63, Physics Building, Perth campus 6009 Perth Western Australia Australia Email: [email protected] Phone: +61 8 6488 4563 Biography His early work on gravitational waves focused on modelling and simulation of gravitational wave background noise. This work evolved in new directions, including the development of a new data analysis algorithm that uses records of the temporal and spatial pattern of rare events in data to predict the occurrence of even rarer events. The methods found novel applications well beyond their original focus, such as predicting the occurrence of very bright gamma ray bursts. Coward has received a broad mentorship that reflects his refusal to be restricted to a single research niche. In 2004, Coward took the bold step of branching out into gamma ray burst and optical transient astronomy, receiving mentorship from experts in this field including the highly cited Tsvi Piran. Following this Coward received mentorship from B. Schmidt, UWA ICRA leaders, and a team of leading French astronomers, Boer and Klotz, for the installation and operation of the Zadko Telescope (Australia’s premier facility for gamma ray burst follow-up). Coward is a member of the LIGO Scientific Community (burst group), and participates in the E.M. follow-up of gravitational wave events as an “advocate” and is named on an MoU for a joint France/Zadko follow-up. He is also named as an investigator on the high-energy detector satellite mission XMM-Newton. In 2013, Coward was invited to collaborate with the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Antarctic astronomy.

  • LETTERA N. 154 444444°°° AAANNNNNNOOO Gennaio-Febbraio 2018 a Tutti I Soci
    GGRRUUPPPPOO AASSTTRROONNOOMMIICCOO TTRRAADDAATTEESSEE LETTERA N. 154 444444°°° AAANNNNNNOOO Gennaio-Febbraio 2018 http://www.gruppoastronomicotradatese.it A tutti i soci Il 3 Ottobre 2017 l’ Accademia svedese delle scienze ha ufficializzato l’ assegnazione del Premio Nobel 2017 per la Fisica ai tre scienziati americani (S. Thonre, B. Barish e R. Weiss) che, con il progetto LIGO-VIRGO, hanno permesso la prima rivelazione di onde gravitazionali. Mai Premio Nobel fu più meritato ed atteso! Anche perché gli eventi gravitazionali sono ormai arrivati a 7 e l’ ultimo (GW170817) del 17 Agosto 2017 ha assunto risonanza epocale, essendo stata per la prima volta scoperta anche una controparte ottica (fusione esplosiva di due pulsar a formare una Kilonova). Inevitabile che a questa scoperta, una delle massime di sempre, sia dedicata quasi tutta questa lettera. Altrettanto obbligatoria è la serata del 5 Marzo 2018 che abbiamo organizzato su questo tema. E in questa occasione non si può dimenticare la grave ingiustizia di 50 anni fa (era il 28 Novembre 1967) quando Joselyn Bell scoprì la prima Pulsar ma il (doveroso) Nobel venne assegnato nel 1974 a A. Hewish suo professore, ma non a lei che, oltre che donna, al momento della scoperta era ancora studentessa. In tema di spazio ‘vicino’ (e in un periodo in cui la NASA si è vista ridotta i fondi per i satelliti di controllo terrestre) è molto importante il positivo lancio a 824 km di altezza, del satellite europeo Sentinel-5P (il 5° del programma Copernicus, voluto nel 1998 dall’ ESA per lo studio della Terra) avvenuta il 13 Ottobre 2017.
