- This observation is the first to show evidence of higher harmonics in the gravitational wave signal, as well as marginal evidence of orbital precession. With PhD students, I developed methods adopted to identify both of these features which are used in the paper for the interpretation of this event. In particular, they are discussed in Sections 3 and 4 and presented in Figure 6.
