Diving below the spin-down limit: Constraints on gravitational waves from the energetic young pulsar PSR J0537-6910
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1589
We present a search for continuous gravitational-wave signals from the young, energetic X-ray pulsar PSR J0537-6910 using data from the second and third observing runs of LIGO and…
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…
All-sky search for long-duration gravitational-wave transients in the second Advanced LIGO observing run
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1183
We present the results of a search for long-duration gravitational-wave transients in the data from the Advanced LIGO second observation run; we search for gravitational-wave trans…
GW170817: Measurements of Neutron Star Radii and Equation of State
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1149
On 17 August 2017, the LIGO and Virgo observatories made the first direct detection of gravitational waves from the coalescence of a neutron star binary system. The detection of th…
