Prospects for joint radio telescope and gravitational wave searches for astrophysical transients

V. Predoi, J. Clark, T. Creighton +11

The radio skies remain mostly unobserved when it comes to transient phenomena. The direct detection of gravitational waves will mark a major milestone of modern astronomy, as an en…

Confusion background from compact binaries

T. Regimbau, Scott A. Hughes

Double neutron stars are one of the most promizing sources for terrestrial gravitational wave interferometers. For actual interferometers and their planned upgrades, the probabilit…

An Upper Limit on the Stochastic Gravitational-Wave Background of Cosmological Origin

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration

A stochastic background of gravitational waves is expected to arise from a superposition of a large number of unresolved gravitational-wave sources of astrophysical and cosmologica…

Shapiro delay of asteroids on LISA

Bertrand Chauvineau, Sophie Pireaux, Tania Regimbau

In this paper, we examine the Shapiro delay caused by the close approach of an asteroid to the LISA constellation. We find that the probability that such an event occurs at a detec…

Gravitational-wave confusion background from cosmological compact binaries: Implications for future terrestrial detectors

Tania Regimbau, Scott A. Hughes

Increasing the sensitivity of a gravitational-wave (GW) detector improves our ability to measure the characteristics of detected sources. It also increases the number of weak signa…
