Active noise cancellation in a suspended interferometer

Jennifer C. Driggers, Matthew Evans, Keenan Pepper +1

We demonstrate feed-forward vibration isolation on a suspended Fabry-Perot interferometer using Wiener filtering and a variant of the common Least Mean Square (LMS) adaptive filter…

Search for Gravitational Waves from Low Mass Compact Binary Coalescence in LIGO's Sixth Science Run and Virgo's Science Runs 2 and 3

the LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Abadie +796

We report on a search for gravitational waves from coalescing compact binaries using LIGO and Virgo observations between July 7, 2009 and October 20, 2010. We searched for signals…

All-sky Search for Periodic Gravitational Waves in the Full S5 LIGO Data

J. Abadie, B. P. Abbott, R. Abbott +794

We report on an all-sky search for periodic gravitational waves in the frequency band 50-800 Hz and with the frequency time derivative in the range of 0 through -6e-9 Hz/s. Such a…

DC readout experiment in Enhanced LIGO

Tobin T. Fricke, Nicolas D. Smith-Lefebvre, Richard Abbott +9

The two 4 km long gravitational wave detectors operated by the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO) were modified in 2008 to read out the gravitational wave c…

Directional limits on persistent gravitational waves using LIGO S5 science data

J. Abadie, B. P. Abbott, R. Abbott +712

The gravitational-wave (GW) sky may include nearby pointlike sources as well as astrophysical and cosmological stochastic backgrounds. Since the relative strength and angular distr…

Implementation and testing of the first prompt search for gravitational wave transients with electromagnetic counterparts

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, Virgo Collaboration, J. Abadie +815

Aims. A transient astrophysical event observed in both gravitational wave (GW) and electromagnetic (EM) channels would yield rich scientific rewards. A first program initiating EM…
