First Demonstration of Optical Feedback Control to Parametric Instability at Advanced LIGO
Juntao Pan, Carl Blair, Vladimir Bossilkov +5
Increasing the circulating power in gravitational-wave detectors to the megawatt level is essential for future sensitivity improvement, but this is critically limited by optomechan…
Ground Based Gravitational Wave Astronomy in the Asian Region
Vaishali Adya, Matthew Bailes, Carl Blair +9
The current gravitational wave detectors have identified a surprising population of heavy stellar mass black holes, and an even larger population of coalescing neutron stars. The f…
Full Band All-sky Search for Periodic Gravitational Waves in the O1 LIGO Data
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1099
We report on a new all-sky search for periodic gravitational waves in the frequency band 475-2000 Hz and with a frequency time derivative in the range of [-1.0e-8, +1e-9] Hz/s. Pot…
A Search for Tensor, Vector, and Scalar Polarizations in the Stochastic Gravitational-Wave Background
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1097
The detection of gravitational waves with Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo has enabled novel tests of general relativity, including direct study of the polarization of gravitationa…
Constraints on cosmic strings using data from the first Advanced LIGO observing run
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1042
Cosmic strings are topological defects which can be formed in GUT-scale phase transitions in the early universe. They are also predicted to form in the context of string theory. Th…
All-sky search for long-duration gravitational wave transients in the first Advanced LIGO observing run
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +990
We present the results of a search for long-duration gravitational wave transients in the data of the LIGO Hanford and LIGO Livingston second generation detectors between September…
