Upper Limits on the Stochastic Gravitational-Wave Background from Advanced LIGO's First Observing Run
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +992
A wide variety of astrophysical and cosmological sources are expected to contribute to a stochastic gravitational-wave background. Following the observations of GW150914 and GW1512…
Effects of waveform model systematics on the interpretation of GW150914
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +999
Parameter estimates of GW150914 were obtained using Bayesian inference, based on three semi-analytic waveform models for binary black hole coalescences. These waveform models diffe…
The basic physics of the binary black hole merger GW150914
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +953
The first direct gravitational-wave detection was made by the Advanced Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory on September 14, 2015. The GW150914 signal was strong eno…
Binary Black Hole Mergers in the first Advanced LIGO Observing Run
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +972
The first observational run of the Advanced LIGO detectors, from September 12, 2015 to January 19, 2016, saw the first detections of gravitational waves from binary black hole merg…
Comprehensive All-sky Search for Periodic Gravitational Waves in the Sixth Science Run LIGO Data
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +959
We report on a comprehensive all-sky search for periodic gravitational waves in the frequency band 100-1500 Hz and with a frequency time derivative in the range of $[-1.18, +1.00]\…
GW150914: Implications for the stochastic gravitational wave background from binary black holes
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration
The LIGO detection of the gravitational wave transient GW150914, from the inspiral and merger of two black holes with masses , suggests a population of…
