LIGO A: Detector Design and Science Prospects Beyond A+

L. Sun, K. Kuns, B. J. J. Slagmolen +1153

We present the LIGO A detector concept, an upgrade for the LIGO observatories based on room-temperature interferometers beyond the fifth observing run (O5). Building on th…

Search of the Early O3 LIGO Data for Continuous Gravitational Waves from the Cassiopeia A and Vela Jr. Supernova Remnants

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, R. Abbott +1411

We present directed searches for continuous gravitational waves from the neutron stars in the Cassiopeia A (Cas A) and Vela Jr. supernova remnants. We carry out the searches in the…
