Upper limits on a stochastic gravitational-wave background using LIGO and Virgo interferometers at 600-1000 Hz

J. Abadie, B. P. Abbott, R. Abbott +782

A stochastic background of gravitational waves is expected to arise from a superposition of many incoherent sources of gravitational waves, of either cosmological or astrophysical…

Cosmological distance indicators by coalescing binaries

Mariafelicia De Laurentis, Salvatore Capozziello, Ivan De Martino +1

Gravitational waves detected from well-localized inspiraling binaries would allow to determine, directly and independently, both binary luminosity and redshift. In this case, such…

The Weierstrass Criterion and the Lemaitre-Tolman-Bondi Models with Cosmological Constant λ

Ivana Bochicchio, Salvatore Capozziello, Ettore Laserra

We analyze Lemaitre-Tolman-Bondi models in presence of the cosmological constant Λthrough the classical Weierstrass criterion. Precisely, we show that the Weierstrass approach allo…

Search for Gravitational Waves from Low Mass Compact Binary Coalescence in LIGO's Sixth Science Run and Virgo's Science Runs 2 and 3

the LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Abadie +796

We report on a search for gravitational waves from coalescing compact binaries using LIGO and Virgo observations between July 7, 2009 and October 20, 2010. We searched for signals…

MOND's acceleration scale as a fundamental quantity

T. Bernal, S. Capozziello, G. Cristofano +1

Some quantum-cosmic scaling relations indicate that the MOND acceleration parameter a_0 could be a fundamental quantity ruling the self-gravitating structures, ranging from stars a…

Primordial black holes, astrophysical systems and the Eddington-Weinberg relation

S. Capozziello, G. Cristofano, M. De Laurentis

Starting from a quantization relation for primordial black holes, it is shown that quantum fluctuations can play a fundamental role in determining the effective scales of self-grav…

All-sky Search for Periodic Gravitational Waves in the Full S5 LIGO Data

J. Abadie, B. P. Abbott, R. Abbott +794

We report on an all-sky search for periodic gravitational waves in the frequency band 50-800 Hz and with the frequency time derivative in the range of 0 through -6e-9 Hz/s. Such a…

Extended Theories of Gravity

Salvatore Capozziello, Mariafelicia De Laurentis

Extended Theories of Gravity can be considered a new paradigm to cure shortcomings of General Relativity at infrared and ultraviolet scales. They are an approach that, by preservin…

Scientific Potential of Einstein Telescope

B. Sathyaprakash, M. Abernathy, F. Acernese +138

Einstein gravitational-wave Telescope (ET) is a design study funded by the European Commission to explore the technological challenges of and scientific benefits from building a th…

Scalar-tensor representation of $f (R)$ gravity and Birkhoff's theorem

Salvatore Capozziello, Diego Sáez-Gómez

Birkhoff's theorem is discussed in the frame of f(R) gravity by using its scalar-tensor representation. Modified gravity has become very popular at recent times as it is able to re…

Deriving the mass of particles from Extended Theories of Gravity in LHC era

S. Capozziello, G. Basini, M. De Laurentis

We derive a geometrical approach to produce the mass of particles that could be suitably tested at LHC. Starting from a 5D unification scheme, we show that all the known interactio…

Quadrupolar gravitational radiation as a test-bed for f(R)-gravity

Mariafelicia De Laurentis, Salvatore Capozziello

The debate concerning the viability of f(R)-gravity as a natural extension of General Relativity could be realistically addressed by using results coming from binary pulsars like P…

Probing the dark matter issue in f(R)-gravity via gravitational lensing

M. Lubini, C. Tortora, J. Näf +2

For a general class of analytic f(R)-gravity theories, we discuss the weak field limit in view of gravitational lensing. Though an additional Yukawa term in the gravitational poten…

de Sitter spacetime: effects of metric perturbations on geodesic motion

Donato Bini, Giampiero Esposito, Andrea Geralico

Gravitational perturbations of the de Sitter spacetime are investigated using the Regge--Wheeler formalism. The set of perturbation equations is reduced to a single second order di…
