Search for Gravitational Waves Associated with Gamma-Ray Bursts During the First Advanced LIGO Observing Run and Implications for the Origin of GRB 150906B
LIGO Scientific Collaboration, Virgo Collaboration, IPN Collaboration +1002
We present the results of the search for gravitational waves (GWs) associated with -ray bursts detected during the first observing run of the Advanced Laser Interferometer Grav…
First search for nontensorial gravitational waves from known pulsars
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1050
We present results from the first directed search for nontensorial gravitational waves. While general relativity allows for tensorial (plus and cross) modes only, a generic metric…
A method for characterizing after-pulsing and dark noise of PMTs and SiPMs
A. Butcher, L. Doria, J. Monroe +3
Photo-multiplier tubes (PMTs) and silicon photo-multipliers (SiPMs) are detectors sensitive to single photons that are widely used for the detection of scintillation and Cerenkov l…
Constraining the p-mode--g-mode tidal instability with GW170817
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, The Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1136
We analyze the impact of a proposed tidal instability coupling -modes and -modes within neutron stars on GW170817. This non-resonant instability transfers energy from the orb…
On the Progenitor of Binary Neutron Star Merger GW170817
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1095
On 2017 August 17 the merger of two compact objects with masses consistent with two neutron stars was discovered through gravitational-wave (GW170817), gamma-ray (GRB 170817A), and…
Fermionic Order by Disorder in a van der Waals Antiferromagnet
R. Okuma, D. Ueta, S. Kuniyoshi +11
CeTe3 is a unique platform to investigate the itinerant magnetism in a van der Waals (vdW) coupled metal. Despite chemical pressure being a promising route to boost quantum fluctua…
