Reconstructing the sky location of gravitational-wave detected compact binary systems: methodology for testing and comparison

Trevor Sidery, Ben Aylott, Nelson Christensen +20

The problem of reconstructing the sky position of compact binary coalescences detected via gravitational waves is a central one for future observations with the ground-based networ…

Application of a Hough search for continuous gravitational waves on data from the 5th LIGO science run

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, The Virgo Collaboration, J. Aasi +876

We report on an all-sky search for periodic gravitational waves in the frequency range with the first derivative of frequency in the range $-8.9 \times 10^{-1…

Constraints on cosmic strings from the LIGO-Virgo gravitational-wave detectors

J. Aasi, J. Abadie, B. P. Abbott +873

Cosmic strings can give rise to a large variety of interesting astrophysical phenomena. Among them, powerful bursts of gravitational waves (GWs) produced by cusps are a promising o…

Search for long-lived gravitational-wave transients coincident with long gamma-ray bursts

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Aasi +875

Long gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have been linked to extreme core-collapse supernovae from massive stars. Gravitational waves (GW) offer a probe of the physics behind long GRBs. We inv…

Searching For Anisotropic Gravitational-wave Backgrounds Using Pulsar Timing Arrays

Stephen R. Taylor, Jonathan R. Gair

We present the results of simulated injections testing the first Bayesian search-pipeline capable of investigating the angular-structure of a gravitational-wave (GW) background inf…

Expectations for extreme-mass-ratio bursts from the Galactic Centre

C. P. L. Berry, J. R. Gair

When a compact object on a highly eccentric orbit about a much more massive body passes through periapsis it emits a short gravitational wave signal known as an extreme-mass-ratio…
