Gravitational wave burst search in the Virgo C7 data
The Virgo Collaboration, F. Acernese
A search for gravitational wave burst events has been performed with the Virgo C7 commissioning run data that have been acquired in September 2005 over five days. It focused on un-…
Pushing towards the ET sensitivity using 'conventional' technology
Stefan Hild, Simon Chelkowski, Andreas Freise
Recently, the design study `Einstein gravitational wave Telescope' (ET) has been funded within the European FP7 framework. The ambitious goal of this project is to provide a concep…
DC-readout of a signal-recycled gravitational wave detector
S. Hild, H. Grote, J. Degallaix +10
All first-generation large-scale gravitational wave detectors are operated at the dark fringe and use a heterodyne readout employing radio frequency (RF) modulation-demodulation te…
Search for Gravitational Wave Bursts from Soft Gamma Repeaters
LIGO Scientific Collaboration, S. Barthelmy, N. Gehrels +2
We present the results of a LIGO search for short-duration gravitational waves (GWs) associated with Soft Gamma Repeater (SGR) bursts. This is the first search sensitive to neutron…
Using the etalon effect for in-situ balancing of the Advanced Virgo arm cavities
S. Hild, A. Freise, M. Mantovani +3
Several large-scale interferometric gravitational-wave detectors use resonant arm cavities to enhance the light power in the interferometer arms. These cavities are based on differ…
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…
