Efficient Estimation of Barycentered Relative Time Delays for Distant Gravitational Wave Sources

Orion Sauter, Vladimir Dergachev, Keith Riles

Accurate determination of gravitational wave source parameters relies on transforming between the source and detector frames. All-sky searches for continuous wave sources are compu…

Constraints on cosmic strings using data from the first Advanced LIGO observing run

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1042

Cosmic strings are topological defects which can be formed in GUT-scale phase transitions in the early universe. They are also predicted to form in the context of string theory. Th…

On the Progenitor of Binary Neutron Star Merger GW170817

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1095

On 2017 August 17 the merger of two compact objects with masses consistent with two neutron stars was discovered through gravitational-wave (GW170817), gamma-ray (GRB 170817A), and…

Search for post-merger gravitational waves from the remnant of the binary neutron star merger GW170817

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1105

The first observation of a binary neutron star coalescence by the Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo gravitational-wave detectors offers an unprecedented opportunity to study matter…
