Search for Multi-messenger Sources of Gravitational Waves and High-energy Neutrinos with Advanced LIGO during its first Observing Run, ANTARES and IceCube

ANTARES, IceCube, LIGO +1589

Astrophysical sources of gravitational waves, such as binary neutron star and black hole mergers or core-collapse supernovae, can drive relativistic outflows, giving rise to non-th…

First measurement of the Hubble constant from a dark standard siren using the Dark Energy Survey galaxies and the LIGO/Virgo binary-black-hole merger GW170814

The DES Collaboration, the LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration +1201

We present a multi-messenger measurement of the Hubble constant H_0 using the binary-black-hole merger GW170814 as a standard siren, combined with a photometric redshift catalog fr…

An Optically Targeted Search for Gravitational Waves emitted by Core-Collapse Supernovae during the First and Second Observing Runs of Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1195

We present the results from a search for gravitational-wave transients associated with core-collapse supernovae observed within a source distance of approximately 20 Mpc during the…

GW190814: Gravitational Waves from the Coalescence of a 23 M Black Hole with a 2.6 M Compact Object

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, R. Abbott +1254

We report the observation of a compact binary coalescence involving a 22.2 - 24.3 black hole and a compact object with a mass of 2.50 - 2.67 (all measuremen…

Properties of the binary neutron star merger GW170817

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1148

On August 17, 2017, the Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo gravitational-wave detectors observed a low-mass compact binary inspiral. The initial sky localization of the source of the…

Search for gravitational waves from binary black hole inspiral, merger and ringdown

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Abadie +721

We present the first modeled search for gravitational waves using the complete binary black hole gravitational waveform from inspiral through the merger and ringdown for binaries w…
