Parameter estimation for signals from compact binary inspirals injected into LIGO data
Marc van der Sluys, Ilya Mandel, Vivien Raymond +3
During the fifth science run of the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO), signals modelling the gravitational waves emitted by coalescing non-spinning compact…
Search for gravitational wave ringdowns from perturbed black holes in LIGO S4 data
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, B. Abbott
According to general relativity a perturbed black hole will settle to a stationary configuration by the emission of gravitational radiation. Such a perturbation will occur, for exa…
Search for Gravitational Waves from Low Mass Binary Coalescences in the First Year of LIGO's S5 Data
LIGO Scientific Collaboration, B. Abbott
We have searched for gravitational waves from coalescing low mass compact binary systems with a total mass between 2 and 35 Msun and a minimum component mass of 1 Msun using data f…
Degeneracies in Sky Localisation Determination from a Spinning Coalescing Binary through Gravitational Wave Observations: a Markov-Chain Monte-Carlo Analysis for two Detectors
V. Raymond, M. V. van der Sluys, I. Mandel +3
Gravitational-wave signals from inspirals of binary compact objects (black holes and neutron stars) are primary targets of the ongoing searches by ground-based gravitational-wave i…
First joint search for gravitational-wave bursts in LIGO and GEO600 data
LIGO Scientific Collaboration, B. Abbott
We present the results of the first joint search for gravitational-wave bursts by the LIGO and GEO600 detectors. We search for bursts with characteristic central frequencies in the…
Parameter estimation of spinning binary inspirals using Markov-chain Monte Carlo
Marc van der Sluys, Vivien Raymond, Ilya Mandel +5
We present a Markov-chain Monte-Carlo (MCMC) technique to study the source parameters of gravitational-wave signals from the inspirals of stellar-mass compact binaries detected wit…
