Neutron-star mergers in scalar-tensor theories of gravity
Enrico Barausse, Carlos Palenzuela, Marcelo Ponce +1
Scalar-tensor theories of gravity are natural phenomenological alternatives to General Relativity, where the gravitational interaction is mediated by a scalar degree of freedom, be…
Everpresent Lambda - II: Structural Stability
Maqbool Ahmed, Rafael Sorkin
Ideas from causal set theory lead to a fluctuating, time dependent cosmological-constant of the right order of magnitude to match currently quoted "dark energy" values. Although su…
2+1 gravity on the conformal sphere
Sean Gryb, Flavio Mercati
We show that there are 2 equivalent first order descriptions of 2+1 gravity with non-zero cosmological constant. One is the well-known spacetime description and the other is in ter…
Search for Gravitational Waves from Binary Black Hole Inspiral, Merger and Ringdown in LIGO-Virgo Data from 2009-2010
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Aasi +800
We report a search for gravitational waves from the inspiral, merger and ringdown of binary black holes (BBH) with total mass between 25 and 100 solar masses, in data taken at the…
Holonomy Spin Foam Models: Definition and Coarse Graining
Benjamin Bahr, Bianca Dittrich, Frank Hellmann +1
We propose a new holonomy formulation for spin foams, which naturally extends the theory space of lattice gauge theories. This allows current spin foam models to be defined on arbi…
Einstein@Home all-sky search for periodic gravitational waves in LIGO S5 data
J. Aasi, J. Abadie, B. P. Abbott +794
This paper presents results of an all-sky searches for periodic gravitational waves in the frequency range [50, 1190] Hz and with frequency derivative ranges of [-2 x 10^-9, 1.1 x…
