A search for gravitational waves associated with the August 2006 timing glitch of the Vela pulsar

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, J. Abadie, B. P. Abbott +499

The physical mechanisms responsible for pulsar timing glitches are thought to excite quasi-normal mode oscillations in their parent neutron star that couple to gravitational wave e…

Asymptotic Safety, Singularities, and Gravitational Collapse

Roberto Casadio, Stephen D. H. Hsu, Behrouz Mirza

Asymptotic safety (an ultraviolet fixed point with finite-dimensional critical surface) offers the possibility that a predictive theory of quantum gravity can be obtained from the…

Calibration of the LIGO Gravitational Wave Detectors in the Fifth Science Run

LIGO Scientific Collaboration, J. Abadie, B. P. Abbott +538

The Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory (LIGO) is a network of three detectors built to detect local perturbations in the space-time metric from astrophysical sourc…

Construction of N-body initial data sets in general relativity

Piotr T. Chruściel, Justin Corvino, James Isenberg

Given a collection of N solutions of the (3+1) vacuum Einstein constraint equations which are asymptotically Euclidean, we show how to construct a new solution of the constraints w…

Search for gravitational wave ringdowns from perturbed black holes in LIGO S4 data

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, B. Abbott

According to general relativity a perturbed black hole will settle to a stationary configuration by the emission of gravitational radiation. Such a perturbation will occur, for exa…

Black holes, information and decoherence

Stephen D. H. Hsu, David Reeb

We investigate the experimental capabilities required to test whether black holes destroy information. We show that an experiment capable of illuminating the information puzzle mus…
