Search for sub-solar mass ultracompact binaries in Advanced LIGO's first observing run

B. P. Abbott, R. Abbott, T. D. Abbott +1135

We present the first Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo search for ultracompact binary systems with component masses between 0.2 - 1.0 using data taken between Se…

A standard siren measurement of the Hubble constant from GW170817 without the electromagnetic counterpart

M. Fishbach, R. Gray, I. Magaña Hernandez +316

We perform a statistical standard siren analysis of GW170817. Our analysis does not utilize knowledge of NGC 4993 as the unique host galaxy of the optical counterpart to GW170817.…

Analysis of the angular dependence of time delay in gravitational lensing

Nicola Alchera, Marco Bonici, Roberta Cardinale +4

We consider an alternative formula for time delay in gravitational lensing. Imposing a smoothness condition on the gravitationally deformed paths followed by the photons from the s…

Constraints on Sub-GeV Dark Matter-Electron Scattering from the DarkSide-50 Experiment

The DarkSide Collaboration, P. Agnes, I. F. M. Albuquerque +193

We present new constraints on sub-GeV dark matter particles scattering off electrons in argon based on an analysis of ionization signal data from the DarkSide-50 detector.
