Searching for Gravitational Waves from Binary Inspirals with LIGO
Duncan A. Brown, Stanislav Babak, Patrick R. Brady +9
We describe the current status of the search for gravitational waves from inspiralling compact binary systems in LIGO data. We review the result from the first scientific run of LI…
The singular field used to calculate the self-force on non-spinning and spinning particles
Eirini Messaritaki
The singular field of a point charge has recently been described in terms of a new Green's function of curved spacetime. This singular field plays an important role in the calculat…
Upper limits on gravitational wave emission from 78 radio pulsars
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, B. Abbott, M. Kramer +1
We present upper limits on the gravitational wave emission from 78 radio pulsars based on data from the third and fourth science runs of the LIGO and GEO600 gravitational wave dete…
Report on the first binary black hole inspiral search in LIGO data
Eirini Messaritaki
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration is currently engaged in the first search for binary black hole inspiral signals in real data. We are using the data from the second LIGO science r…
Scalar field self-force effects on orbits about a Schwarzschild black hole
Luz Maria Diaz-Rivera, Eirini Messaritaki, Bernard F. Whiting +1
For a particle of mass mu and scalar charge q, we compute the effects of the scalar field self-force upon circular orbits, upon slightly eccentric orbits and upon the innermost sta…
Radiation Reaction on Moving Particles in General Relativity
Eirini Messaritaki
A particle in the vicinity of a Schwarzschild black hole is known to trace a geodesic of the Schwarzschild background, to a first approximation. If the interaction of the particle…
