Atomic Structure of Amorphous Optical Coatings of TiO-doped GeO by Grazing-Incidence Total X-ray Scattering Measurements

K. Prasai, J. Jiang, K. Lee +13

Reducing coating thermal noise in future gravitational-wave detectors requires identifying the atomic motifs that control mechanical loss in amorphous optical coatings. We combine…

Spin decoherence in VOPc@graphene nanoribbon complexes

Xiao Chen, James N. Fry, H. P. Cheng

Carbon nanoribbon or nanographene qubit arrays can facilitate quantum-to-quantum transduction between light, charge, and spin, making them an excellent testbed for fundamental scie…

Search for Gravitational Waves Associated with Gamma-Ray Bursts Detected by Fermi and Swift During the LIGO-Virgo Run O3a

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, R. Abbott +1250

We search for gravitational-wave transients associated with gamma-ray bursts detected by the Fermi and Swift satellites during the first part of the third observing run of Advanced…

Population Properties of Compact Objects from the Second LIGO-Virgo Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, R. Abbott +1338

We report on the population of the 47 compact binary mergers detected with a false-alarm rate 1/yr in the second LIGO--Virgo Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog, GWTC-2. We observ…

Tests of General Relativity with Binary Black Holes from the second LIGO-Virgo Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, R. Abbott +1344

Gravitational waves enable tests of general relativity in the highly dynamical and strong-field regime. Using events detected by LIGO-Virgo up to 1 October 2019, we evaluate the co…

GWTC-2: Compact Binary Coalescences Observed by LIGO and Virgo During the First Half of the Third Observing Run

R. Abbott, T. D. Abbott, S. Abraham +1349

We report on gravitational wave discoveries from compact binary coalescences detected by Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo in the first half of the third observing run (O3a) between…
