Gravitational wave burst search in the Virgo C7 data

The Virgo Collaboration, F. Acernese

A search for gravitational wave burst events has been performed with the Virgo C7 commissioning run data that have been acquired in September 2005 over five days. It focused on un-…

Resolving Curvature Singularities in Holomorphic Gravity

Christiaan L. M. Mantz, Tomislav Prokopec

We formulate holomorphic theory of gravity and study how the holomorphy symmetry alters the two most important singular solutions of general relativity: black holes and cosmology.…

A Cross-correlation method to search for gravitational wave bursts with AURIGA and Virgo

AURIGA Collaboration, Virgo Collaboration

We present a method to search for transient GWs using a network of detectors with different spectral and directional sensitivities: the interferometer Virgo and the bar detector AU…
