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…
