Implications For The Origin Of GRB 051103 From LIGO Observations
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, J. Abadie, B. P. Abbott +568
We present the results of a LIGO search for gravitational waves (GWs) associated with GRB 051103, a short-duration hard-spectrum gamma-ray burst (GRB) whose electromagnetically det…
A search for gravitational waves associated with the August 2006 timing glitch of the Vela pulsar
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, J. Abadie, B. P. Abbott +499
The physical mechanisms responsible for pulsar timing glitches are thought to excite quasi-normal mode oscillations in their parent neutron star that couple to gravitational wave e…
First search for gravitational waves from the youngest known neutron star
LIGO Scientific Collaboration, J. Abadie, B. P. Abbott +537
We present a search for periodic gravitational waves from the neutron star in the supernova remnant Cassiopeia A. The search coherently analyzes data in a 12-day interval taken fro…
A student designed experiment measuring the speed of sound as a function of altitude
G. Santostasi, D. Hughes, P. Maharjan +6
Relatively inexpensive and readily commercially available equipment (such as digital recorders, MP3 portable speakers and tie-pin microphones), allowed a team of students from McNe…
Upper and lower limits on the Crab pulsar's astrophysical parameters set from gravitational wave observations by LIGO: braking index and energy considerations
Giovanni Santostasi
The Laser Interferometer Gravitational Observatory (LIGO) has recently reached the end of its fifth science run (S5), having collected more than a year worth of data. Analysis of t…
Detectability of Gravitational Waves from SN 1987A
Giovanni Santostasi, Juhan Frank, Warren Johnson
We discuss the potential for detection of gravitational waves from a rapidly spinning neutron star produced by supernova 1987A taking the parameters claimed by Middleditch et al. (…
