A directed search for gravitational waves from Scorpius X-1 with initial LIGO
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Aasi +891
We present results of a search for continuously-emitted gravitational radiation, directed at the brightest low-mass X-ray binary, Scorpius X-1. Our semi-coherent analysis covers 10…
Advanced LIGO
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration
The Advanced LIGO gravitational wave detectors are second generation instruments designed and built for the two LIGO observatories in Hanford, WA and Livingston, LA. The two instru…
Parameter estimation for binary neutron-star coalescences with realistic noise during the Advanced LIGO era
Christopher P. L. Berry, Ilya Mandel, Hannah Middleton +15
Advanced ground-based gravitational-wave (GW) detectors begin operation imminently. Their intended goal is not only to make the first direct detection of GWs, but also to make infe…
Narrow-band search of continuous gravitational-wave signals from Crab and Vela pulsars in Virgo VSR4 data
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Aasi +894
In this paper we present the results of a coherent narrow-band search for continuous gravitational-wave signals from the Crab and Vela pulsars conducted on Virgo VSR4 data. In orde…
Searching for stochastic gravitational waves using data from the two co-located LIGO Hanford detectors
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Aasi +873
Searches for a stochastic gravitational-wave background (SGWB) using terrestrial detectors typically involve cross-correlating data from pairs of detectors. The sensitivity of such…
Robust parameter estimation for compact binaries with ground-based gravitational-wave observations using the LALInference software library
John Veitch, Vivien Raymond, Benjamin Farr +24
The Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo gravitational wave (GW) detectors will begin operation in the coming years, with compact binary coalescence events a likely source for the firs…
