GW170608: Observation of a 19-solar-mass Binary Black Hole Coalescence
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1101
On June 8, 2017 at 02:01:16.49 UTC, a gravitational-wave signal from the merger of two stellar-mass black holes was observed by the two Advanced LIGO detectors with a network signa…
GW170817: Observation of Gravitational Waves from a Binary Neutron Star Inspiral
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, The Virgo Collaboration
On August 17, 2017 at 12:41:04 UTC the Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo gravitational-wave detectors made their first observation of a binary neutron star inspiral. The signal, GW1…
Exploring the Sensitivity of Next Generation Gravitational Wave Detectors
B. P. Abbott, R. Abbott, T. D. Abbott +720
The second-generation of gravitational-wave detectors are just starting operation, and have already yielding their first detections. Research is now concentrated on how to maximize…
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…
Implementation of an F-statistic all-sky search for continuous gravitational waves in Virgo VSR1 data
J. Aasi, B. P. Abbott, R. Abbott +848
We present an implementation of the -statistic to carry out the first search in data from the Virgo laser interferometric gravitational wave detector for periodic grav…
Preparations for detecting and characterizing gravitational-wave signals from binary black hole coalescences
Thilina Dayanga, Sukanta Bose
We evaluate how well EOBNR waveforms, obtained from the effective one-body formalism, perform in detecting gravitational wave (GW) signals from binary black hole (BBH) coalescences…
