Accelerated, fully time-domain likelihood evaluation for gravitational-wave inference.
Shows that near-zero spin inferences for binary black holes may be driven by spin-prior choices.
Study of inference biases for eccentric, spin-precessing BBH systems.
Investigation of the single-detector high-SNR event GW230814; includes targeted numerical relativity simulation support.
Spectroscopy and GR tests on GW250114; Vaishak contributed to area law interpretation and ringdown model context.
