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…

An Optically Targeted Search for Gravitational Waves emitted by Core-Collapse Supernovae during the First and Second Observing Runs of Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1195

We present the results from a search for gravitational-wave transients associated with core-collapse supernovae observed within a source distance of approximately 20 Mpc during the…

A guide to LIGO-Virgo detector noise and extraction of transient gravitational-wave signals

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1135

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration and the Virgo Collaboration have cataloged eleven confidently detected gravitational-wave events during the first two observing runs of the advanc…

Two-harmonic approximation for gravitational waveforms from precessing binaries

Stephen Fairhurst, Rhys Green, Charlie Hoy +2

Binary-black-hole orbits precess when the black-hole spins are mis-aligned with the binary's orbital angular momentum. The apparently complicated dynamics can in most cases be desc…

Model comparison from LIGO-Virgo data on GW170817's binary components and consequences for the merger remnant

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1191

GW170817 is the very first observation of gravitational waves originating from the coalescence of two compact objects in the mass range of neutron stars, accompanied by electromagn…

When will we observe binary black holes precessing?

Stephen Fairhurst, Rhys Green, Mark Hannam +1

After eleven gravitational-wave detections from compact-binary mergers, we are yet to observe the striking general-relativistic phenomenon of orbital precession. Measurements of pr…
