A search for gravitational waves associated with the August 2006 timing glitch of the Vela pulsar
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, J. Abadie, B. P. Abbott +499
The physical mechanisms responsible for pulsar timing glitches are thought to excite quasi-normal mode oscillations in their parent neutron star that couple to gravitational wave e…
The CfAO's Astronomy Course in COSMOS: Curriculum Design, Rationale, and Application
Kathy L. Cooksey, Scott Seagroves, Jason Porter +3
From 2001 to 2007, COSMOS provided a teaching and outreach venue for the Center for Adaptive Optics Professional Development Program (CfAO PDP). COSMOS is a four-week residential m…
Search for Gravitational Wave Bursts from Six Magnetars
J. Abadie, B. P. Abbott, R. Abbott +765
Soft gamma repeaters (SGRs) and anomalous X-ray pulsars (AXPs) are thought to be magnetars: neutron stars powered by extreme magnetic fields. These rare objects are characterized b…
Fermi Large Area Telescope Observation of a Gamma-ray Source at the Position of Eta Carinae
The Fermi LAT collaboration
The Large Area Telescope (LAT) onboard the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope detected a gamma-ray source that is spatially consistent with the location of Eta Carinae. This source ha…
Calibration of the LIGO Gravitational Wave Detectors in the Fifth Science Run
LIGO Scientific Collaboration, J. Abadie, B. P. Abbott +538
The Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory (LIGO) is a network of three detectors built to detect local perturbations in the space-time metric from astrophysical sourc…
Fermi Large Area Telescope View of the Core of the Radio Galaxy Centaurus A
Fermi Collaboration, A. Falcone, H. Hase +2
We present gamma-ray observations with the LAT on board the Fermi Gamma-Ray Telescope of the nearby radio galaxy Centaurus~A. The previous EGRET detection is confirmed, and the loc…
Fermi Gamma-ray Imaging of a Radio Galaxy
LAT Collaboration
The Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope has detected the gamma-ray glow emanating from the giant radio lobes of the radio galaxy Centaurus A. The resolved gamma-ray image shows the lob…
GeV Gamma-ray Flux Upper Limits from Clusters of Galaxies
M. Ackermann et al.
The detection of diffuse radio emission associated with clusters of galaxies indicates populations of relativistic leptons infusing the intracluster medium. Those electrons and pos…
First search for gravitational waves from the youngest known neutron star
LIGO Scientific Collaboration, J. Abadie, B. P. Abbott +537
We present a search for periodic gravitational waves from the neutron star in the supernova remnant Cassiopeia A. The search coherently analyzes data in a 12-day interval taken fro…
Search for Gravitational Waves from Compact Binary Coalescence in LIGO and Virgo Data from S5 and VSR1
the LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration
We report the results of the first search for gravitational waves from compact binary coalescence using data from the LIGO and Virgo detectors. Five months of data were collected d…
A change in the optical polarization associated with a gamma-ray flare in the blazar 3C 279
LAT Collaboration, members of the 3C 279 multi-band campaign
It is widely accepted that strong and variable radiation detected over all accessible energy bands in a number of active galaxies arises from a relativistic, Doppler-boosted jet po…
Gamma-ray Light Curves and Variability of Bright Fermi-Detected Blazars
A. A. Abdo
This paper presents light curves and the first systematic characterization of variability of the 106 objects in the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) Bright AGN Sample (LBAS). Weekl…
Predictions for the Rates of Compact Binary Coalescences Observable by Ground-based Gravitational-wave Detectors
LIGO Scientific Collaboration, Virgo Collaboration, J. Abadie +709
We present an up-to-date, comprehensive summary of the rates for all types of compact binary coalescence sources detectable by the Initial and Advanced versions of the ground-based…
All-sky search for gravitational-wave bursts in the first joint LIGO-GEO-Virgo run
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration
We present results from an all-sky search for unmodeled gravitational-wave bursts in the data collected by the LIGO, GEO 600 and Virgo detectors between November 2006 and October 2…
Search for gravitational-wave inspiral signals associated with short Gamma-Ray Bursts during LIGO's fifth and Virgo's first science run
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Abadie +665
Progenitor scenarios for short gamma-ray bursts (short GRBs) include coalescenses of two neutron stars or a neutron star and black hole, which would necessarily be accompanied by t…
The Spectrum of the Isotropic Diffuse Gamma-Ray Emission Derived From First-Year Fermi Large Area Telescope Data
LAT collaboration
We report on the first Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) measurements of the so-called "extra-galactic" diffuse gamma-ray emission (EGB). This component of the diffuse gamma-ray emi…

Fermi LAT Collaboration, Fermi GBM Collaboration
We report on the detailed analysis of the high-energy extended emission from the short Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) 081024B, detected by the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. Historically,…
