Upper limits on the rates of binary neutron star and neutron-star--black-hole mergers from Advanced LIGO's first observing run

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +958

We report here the non-detection of gravitational waves from the merger of binary neutron star systems and neutron-star--black-hole systems during the first observing run of Advanc…

Search for transient gravitational waves in coincidence with short duration radio transients during 2007-2013

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, others +999

We present an archival search for transient gravitational-wave bursts in coincidence with 27 single pulse triggers from Green Bank Telescope pulsar surveys, using the LIGO, Virgo a…

Bayesian analysis of cosmic-ray propagation: evidence against homogeneous diffusion

G. Jóhannesson, R. Ruiz de Austri, A. C. Vincent +8

We present the results of the most complete ever scan of the parameter space for cosmic ray (CR) injection and propagation. We perform a Bayesian search of the main GALPROP paramet…

Machine Learning Model of the Swift/BAT Trigger Algorithm for Long GRB Population Studies

Philip B Graff, Amy Y Lien, John G Baker +1

To draw inferences about gamma-ray burst (GRB) source populations based on Swift observations, it is essential to understand the detection efficiency of the Swift burst alert teles…

Parameter estimation on gravitational waves from neutron-star binaries with spinning components

Ben Farr, Christopher P. L. Berry, Will M. Farr +14

Inspiraling binary neutron stars are expected to be one of the most significant sources of gravitational-wave signals for the new generation of advanced ground-based detectors. We…

Methods and results of a search for gravitational waves associated with gamma-ray bursts using the GEO600, LIGO, and Virgo detectors

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Aasi +889

In this paper we report on a search for short-duration gravitational wave bursts in the frequency range 64 Hz-1792 Hz associated with gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), using data from GEO60…
