LIGO Detector Characterization in the Second and Third Observing Runs

D. Davis, J. S. Areeda, B. K. Berger +284

The characterization of the Advanced LIGO detectors in the second and third observing runs has increased the sensitivity of the instruments, allowing for a higher number of detecta…

Improving significance of binary black hole mergers in Advanced LIGO data using deep learning : Confirmation of GW151216

Shreejit Jadhav, Nikhil Mukund, Bhooshan Gadre +2

We present a novel Machine Learning (ML) based strategy to search for binary black hole (BBH) mergers in data from ground-based gravitational wave (GW) observatories. This is the f…

Improving the Robustness of the Advanced LIGO Detectors to Earthquakes

Eyal Schwartz, A Pele, J Warner +196

Teleseismic, or distant, earthquakes regularly disrupt the operation of ground--based gravitational wave detectors such as Advanced LIGO. Here, we present \emph{EQ mode}, a new glo…

First demonstration of 6 dB quantum noise reduction in a kilometer scale gravitational wave observatory

James Lough, Emil Schreiber, Fabio Bergamin +14

Photon shot noise, arising from the quantum-mechanical nature of the light, currently limits the sensitivity of all the gravitational wave observatories at frequencies above one ki…

Bilinear noise subtraction at the GEO 600 observatory

Nikhil Mukund, James Lough, Christoph Affeldt +8

Longitudinal control signals used to keep gravitational wave detectors at a stable operating point are often affected by modulations from test mass misalignments leading to an elev…

All-sky search for continuous gravitational waves from isolated neutron stars using Advanced LIGO O2 data

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1130

We present results of an all-sky search for continuous gravitational waves (CWs), which can be produced by fast-spinning neutron stars with an asymmetry around their rotation axis,…
