Remote Sensing of Chiral Signatures on Mars
William Sparks, James H. Hough, Thomas A. Germer +2
We describe circular polarization as a remote sensing diagnostic of chiral signatures which may be applied to Mars. The remarkable phenomenon of homochirality provides a unique bio…
Einstein@Home all-sky search for periodic gravitational waves in LIGO S5 data
J. Aasi, J. Abadie, B. P. Abbott +794
This paper presents results of an all-sky searches for periodic gravitational waves in the frequency range [50, 1190] Hz and with frequency derivative ranges of [-2 x 10^-9, 1.1 x…
Scientific Objectives of Einstein Telescope
B. Sathyaprakash, M. Abernathy, F. Acernese +222
The advanced interferometer network will herald a new era in observational astronomy. There is a very strong science case to go beyond the advanced detector network and build detec…
Hundred Thousand Degree Gas in the Virgo Cluster of Galaxies
W. B. Sparks, J. E. Pringle, R. F. Carswell +6
The physical relationship between low-excitation gas filaments at ~10^4 K, seen in optical line emission, and diffuse X-ray emitting coronal gas at ~10^7 K in the centers of many g…
The characterization of Virgo data and its impact on gravitational-wave searches
J. Aasi, J. Abadie, B. P. Abbott +798
Between 2007 and 2010 Virgo collected data in coincidence with the LIGO and GEO gravitational-wave (GW) detectors. These data have been searched for GWs emitted by cataclysmic phen…
