Gravitational Radiation in Astrophysical Contexts
How well can GW observations from current and future detectors be used to constrain mesoscale and/or microscale properties of GW source properties or environments?
Astrophysical Formation of Gravitational-Wave Sources
How do binary interactions and astrophysical environments affect binary orbital evolution and source population properties?
Neutron-Star Equation of State
What can we learn from neutron-star quasi-universality? How does a neutron star's properties affect how it evolves from birth to mid-life to death?
Multi-band Gravitational-Wave Astronomy
Future GW detectors may allow for observations of GW sources in multiple bands. What can we learn from such multi-band GW observations?
Supermassive Black-Hole Binaries and Pulsar Timing Arrays
What are the multi-messenger signatures of supermassive black-hole binaries? What will pulsar timing arrays tell us about SMBH binary formation?
