All-sky search for long-duration gravitational wave transients with LIGO

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +934

We present the results of a search for long-duration gravitational wave transients in two sets of data collected by the LIGO Hanford and LIGO Livingston detectors between November…

A search of the Orion spur for continuous gravitational waves using a "loosely coherent" algorithm on data from LIGO interferometers

J. Aasi, B. P. Abbott, R. Abbott +920

We report results of a wideband search for periodic gravitational waves from isolated neutron stars within the Orion spur towards both the inner and outer regions of our Galaxy. As…

Gravitational-wave cutoff frequencies of tidally disruptive neutron star-black hole binary mergers

Francesco Pannarale, Emanuele Berti, Koutarou Kyutoku +2

Tidal disruption has a dramatic impact on the outcome of neutron star-black hole mergers. The phenomenology of these systems can be divided in three classes: nondisruptive, mildly…

A fully-coherent all-sky search for gravitational-waves from compact binary coalescences

D. M. Macleod, I. W. Harry, S. Fairhurst

We introduce a fully-coherent method for searching for gravitational wave signals generated by the merger of black hole and/or neutron star binaries. This extends the coherent anal…

Gravitational waveforms for neutron star binaries from binary black hole simulations

Kevin Barkett, Mark A. Scheel, Roland Haas +9

Gravitational waves from binary neutron star (BNS) and black hole/neutron star (BHNS) inspirals are primary sources for detection by the Advanced Laser Interferometer Gravitational…

Aligned spin neutron star-black hole mergers: a gravitational waveform amplitude model

Francesco Pannarale, Emanuele Berti, Koutarou Kyutoku +2

The gravitational radiation emitted during the merger of a black hole with a neutron star is rather similar to the radiation from the merger of two black holes when the neutron sta…
