Searching for gravitational waves from binary coalescence

S. Babak, R. Biswas, P. R. Brady +25

We describe the implementation of a search for gravitational waves from compact binary coalescences in LIGO and Virgo data. This all-sky, all-time, multi-detector search for binary…

Search for gravitational waves associated with gamma-ray bursts during LIGO science run 6 and Virgo science runs 2 and 3

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, Virgo Collaboration, J. Abadie +807

We present the results of a search for gravitational waves associated with 154 gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) that were detected by satellite-based gamma-ray experiments in 2009-2010, dur…

All-sky search for gravitational-wave bursts in the second joint LIGO-Virgo run

the LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Abadie +786

We present results from a search for gravitational-wave bursts in the data collected by the LIGO and Virgo detectors between July 7, 2009 and October 20, 2010: data are analyzed wh…

First Low-Latency LIGO+Virgo Search for Binary Inspirals and their Electromagnetic Counterparts

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, The Virgo Collaboration

Aims. The detection and measurement of gravitational-waves from coalescing neutron-star binary systems is an important science goal for ground-based gravitational-wave detectors. I…

Search for Gravitational Waves from Intermediate Mass Binary Black Holes

the LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Abadie +790

We present the results of a weakly modeled burst search for gravitational waves from mergers of non-spinning intermediate mass black holes (IMBH) in the total mass range 100--450 s…

Implications For The Origin Of GRB 051103 From LIGO Observations

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, J. Abadie, B. P. Abbott +568

We present the results of a LIGO search for gravitational waves (GWs) associated with GRB 051103, a short-duration hard-spectrum gamma-ray burst (GRB) whose electromagnetically det…
