All-sky search for short gravitational-wave bursts in the first Advanced LIGO run
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +986
We present the results from an all-sky search for short-duration gravitational waves in the data of the first run of the Advanced LIGO detectors between September 2015 and January…
The basic physics of the binary black hole merger GW150914
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +953
The first direct gravitational-wave detection was made by the Advanced Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory on September 14, 2015. The GW150914 signal was strong eno…
Upper limits on the rates of binary neutron star and neutron-star--black-hole mergers from Advanced LIGO's first observing run
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +958
We report here the non-detection of gravitational waves from the merger of binary neutron star systems and neutron-star--black-hole systems during the first observing run of Advanc…
The SCUBA-2 Cosmology Legacy Survey: 850um maps, catalogues and number counts
J. E. Geach, J. S. Dunlop, M. Halpern +66
We present a catalogue of nearly 3,000 submillimetre sources detected at 850um over ~5 square degrees surveyed as part of the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope (JCMT) SCUBA-2 Cosmology…
Results of the deepest all-sky survey for continuous gravitational waves on LIGO S6 data running on the Einstein@Home volunteer distributed computing project
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, The Virgo Collaboration
We report results of a deep all-sky search for periodic gravitational waves from isolated neutron stars in data from the S6 LIGO science run. The search was possible thanks to the…
Exploring the Sensitivity of Next Generation Gravitational Wave Detectors
B. P. Abbott, R. Abbott, T. D. Abbott +720
The second-generation of gravitational-wave detectors are just starting operation, and have already yielding their first detections. Research is now concentrated on how to maximize…
