A directed search for gravitational waves from Scorpius X-1 with initial LIGO

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Aasi +891

We present results of a search for continuously-emitted gravitational radiation, directed at the brightest low-mass X-ray binary, Scorpius X-1. Our semi-coherent analysis covers 10…

Advanced LIGO

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration

The Advanced LIGO gravitational wave detectors are second generation instruments designed and built for the two LIGO observatories in Hanford, WA and Livingston, LA. The two instru…

Searching for stochastic gravitational waves using data from the two co-located LIGO Hanford detectors

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Aasi +873

Searches for a stochastic gravitational-wave background (SGWB) using terrestrial detectors typically involve cross-correlating data from pairs of detectors. The sensitivity of such…

Hawking Evaporation is Inconsistent with a Classical Event Horizon at

Borun D. Chowdhury, Lawrence M. Krauss

A simple classical consideration of black hole formation and evaporation times focusing solely on the frame of an observer at infinity demonstrates that an infall cutoff outside th…

The Strongly Attached Point Topology of the Abstract Boundary For Space-Time

Richard A. Barry, Susan M. Scott

The abstract boundary construction of Scott and Szekeres provides a `boundary' for any n-dimensional, paracompact, connected, Hausdorff, smooth manifold. Singularities may then be…

The Attached Point Topology of the Abstract Boundary For Space-Time

Richard A. Barry, Susan M. Scott

Singularities play an important role in General Relativity and have been shown to be an inherent feature of most physically reasonable space-times. Despite this, there are many asp…
