Search for the isotropic stochastic background using data from Advanced LIGO's second observing run
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1133
The stochastic gravitational-wave background is a superposition of sources that are either too weak or too numerous to detect individually. In this study we present the results fro…
Narrow-band search for gravitational waves from known pulsars using the second LIGO observing run
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1135
Isolated spinning neutron stars, asymmetric with respect to their rotation axis, are expected to be sources of continuous gravitational waves. The most sensitive searches for these…
Constraints on cosmic strings using data from the first Advanced LIGO observing run
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1042
Cosmic strings are topological defects which can be formed in GUT-scale phase transitions in the early universe. They are also predicted to form in the context of string theory. Th…
