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…
Characterization of the LIGO detectors during their sixth science run
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, The Virgo Collaboration, J. Aasi +867
In 2009-2010, the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observa- tory (LIGO) operated together with international partners Virgo and GEO600 as a network to search for gravitation…
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…
Advanced Virgo: a 2nd generation interferometric gravitational wave detector
F. Acernese, M. Agathos, K. Agatsuma +231
Advanced Virgo is the project to upgrade the Virgo interferometric detector of gravitational waves, with the aim of increasing the number of observable galaxies (and thus the detec…
Improved Upper Limits on the Stochastic Gravitational-Wave Background from 2009-2010 LIGO and Virgo Data
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Aasi +846
Gravitational waves from a variety of sources are predicted to superpose to create a stochastic background. This background is expected to contain unique information from throughou…
Prospects for intermediate mass black hole binary searches with advanced gravitational-wave detectors
G. Mazzolo, F. Salemi, M. Drago +8
We estimated the sensitivity of the upcoming advanced, ground-based gravitational-wave observatories (the upgraded LIGO and Virgo and the KAGRA interferometers) to coalescing inter…
First all-sky search for continuous gravitational waves from unknown sources in binary systems
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Aasi +849
We present the first results of an all-sky search for continuous gravitational waves from unknown spinning neutron stars in binary systems using LIGO and Virgo data. Using a specia…
Search for gravitational wave ringdowns from perturbed intermediate mass black holes in LIGO-Virgo data from 2005-2010
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Aasi +849
We report results from a search for gravitational waves produced by perturbed intermediate mass black holes (IMBH) in data collected by LIGO and Virgo between 2005 and 2010. The se…
Implementation of an F-statistic all-sky search for continuous gravitational waves in Virgo VSR1 data
J. Aasi, B. P. Abbott, R. Abbott +848
We present an implementation of the -statistic to carry out the first search in data from the Virgo laser interferometric gravitational wave detector for periodic grav…
The NINJA-2 project: Detecting and characterizing gravitational waveforms modelled using numerical binary black hole simulations
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, 2 Collaboration +888
The Numerical INJection Analysis (NINJA) project is a collaborative effort between members of the numerical relativity and gravitational-wave astrophysics communities. The purpose…
Reconstruction of the gravitational wave signal during the Virgo science runs and independent validation with a photon calibrator
Virgo collaboration, T. Accadia, F. Acernese +193
The Virgo detector is a kilometer-scale interferometer for gravitational wave detection located near Pisa (Italy). About 13 months of data were accumulated during four science runs…
