Constraining temperature distribution inside LIGO test masses from frequencies of their vibrational modes
Carl D Blair, Yuri Levin, Eric Thrane
Thermal distortion of test masses, as well as thermal drift of their vibrational mode frequencies, present a major challenge for operation of the Advanced LIGO and Advanced VIRGO i…
Exploring the sensitivity of gravitational wave detectors to neutron star physics
Denis Martynov, Haixing Miao, Huan Yang +14
The physics of neutron stars can be studied with gravitational waves emitted from coalescing binary systems. Tidal effects become significant during the last few orbits and can be…
Thermal noise of beam splitters in laser gravitational wave detectors
Johannes Dickmann, Stefanie Kroker, Yuri Levin +2
We present the calculation of thermal noise in interferometric gravitational-wave detectors due to the thermal fluctuations of the beam splitter (BS). This work makes use of a rece…
Narrow-band search of continuous gravitational-wave signals from Crab and Vela pulsars in Virgo VSR4 data
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Aasi +894
In this paper we present the results of a coherent narrow-band search for continuous gravitational-wave signals from the Crab and Vela pulsars conducted on Virgo VSR4 data. In orde…
Understanding and analysing time-correlated stochastic signals in pulsar timing
Rutger van Haasteren, Yuri Levin
Although it is widely understood that pulsar timing observations generally contain time-correlated stochastic signals (TCSSs; red timing noise is of this type), most data analysis…
Gravitational-wave memory and pulsar timing arrays
Rutger van Haasteren, Yuri Levin
Pulsar timing arrays (PTAs) are designed to detect gravitational waves with periods from several months to several years, e.g. those produced by by wide supermassive black-hole bin…
