Constraints on cosmic strings using data from the third Advanced LIGO-Virgo observing run
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1586
We search for gravitational-wave signals produced by cosmic strings in the Advanced LIGO and Virgo full O3 data set. Search results are presented for gravitational waves produced b…
GW190412: Observation of a Binary-Black-Hole Coalescence with Asymmetric Masses
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, R. Abbott +1254
We report the observation of gravitational waves from a binary-black-hole coalescence during the first two weeks of LIGO's and Virgo's third observing run. The signal was recorded…
Open data from the first and second observing runs of Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, R. Abbott +1245
Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo are actively monitoring the sky and collecting gravitational-wave strain data with sufficient sensitivity to detect signals routinely. In this pape…
