Upper limits on the strength of periodic gravitational waves from PSR J1939+2134
B. Allen, G. Woan
The first science run of the LIGO and GEO gravitational wave detectors presented the opportunity to test methods of searching for gravitational waves from known pulsars. Here we pr…
A physical template family for gravitational waves from precessing binaries of spinning compact objects: Application to single-spin binaries
Yi Pan, Alessandra Buonanno, Yanbei Chen +1
The detection of the gravitational waves (GWs) emitted by precessing binaries of spinning compact objects is complicated by the large number of parameters (such as the magnitudes a…
Improving the sensitivity to gravitational-wave sources by modifying the input-output optics of advanced interferometers
Alessandra Buonanno, Yanbei Chen
We study frequency dependent (FD) input-output schemes for signal-recycling interferometers, the baseline design of Advanced LIGO and the current configuration of GEO 600. Compleme…
Analysis of LIGO data for gravitational waves from binary neutron stars
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, B. Abbott
We report on a search for gravitational waves from coalescing compact binary systems in the Milky Way and the Magellanic Clouds. The analysis uses data taken by two of the three LI…
TASI Lectures on Gravitational Waves from the Early Universe
Alessandra Buonanno
These lectures discuss how the direct detection of gravitational waves can be used to probe the very early Universe. We review the main cosmological mechanisms which could have pro…
Quantum noise in laser-interferometer gravitational-wave detectors with a heterodyne readout scheme
Alessandra Buonanno, Yanbei Chen, Nergis Mavalvala
We analyze and discuss the quantum noise in signal-recycled laser interferometer gravitational-wave detectors, such as Advanced LIGO, using a heterodyne readout scheme and taking i…
