Search for Eccentric Binary Neutron Star Mergers in the first and second observing runs of Advanced LIGO

Alexander H. Nitz, Amber Lenon, Duncan A. Brown

We present a search for gravitational waves from merging binary neutron stars which have non-negligible eccentricity as they enter the LIGO observing band. We use the public Advanc…

2-OGC: Open Gravitational-wave Catalog of binary mergers from analysis of public Advanced LIGO and Virgo data

Alexander H. Nitz, Thomas Dent, Gareth S. Davies +7

We present the second Open Gravitational-wave Catalog (2-OGC) of compact-binary coalescences, obtained from the complete set of public data from Advanced LIGO's first and second ob…

An Optically Targeted Search for Gravitational Waves emitted by Core-Collapse Supernovae during the First and Second Observing Runs of Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1195

We present the results from a search for gravitational-wave transients associated with core-collapse supernovae observed within a source distance of approximately 20 Mpc during the…

Stringent constraints on neutron-star radii from multimessenger observations and nuclear theory

Collin D. Capano, Ingo Tews, Stephanie M. Brown +6

The properties of neutron stars are determined by the nature of the matter that they contain. These properties can be constrained by measurements of the star's size. We obtain stri…

Search for Eccentric Binary Black Hole Mergers with Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo during their First and Second Observing Runs

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1183

When formed through dynamical interactions, stellar-mass binary black holes may retain eccentric orbits ( at 10 Hz) detectable by ground-based gravitational-wave detectors.…

Search for gravitational-wave signals associated with gamma-ray bursts during the second observing run of Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo

B. P. Abbott, R. Abbott, T. D. Abbott +1196

We present the results of targeted searches for gravitational-wave transients associated with gamma-ray bursts during the second observing run of Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo,…
