Search for Gravitational Wave Bursts from Soft Gamma Repeaters
LIGO Scientific Collaboration, S. Barthelmy, N. Gehrels +2
We present the results of a LIGO search for short-duration gravitational waves (GWs) associated with Soft Gamma Repeater (SGR) bursts. This is the first search sensitive to neutron…
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…
Notes about Noise in Gravitational Wave Antennas Created by Cosmic Rays
V. B. Braginsky, O. G. Ryazhskaya, S. P. Vyatchanin
Thermodynamical fluctuations of temperature in mirrors may produce surface fluctuations not only through thermal expansion in mirror body but also through thermal expansion in mirr…
Corner reflectors and Quantum-Non-Demolition Measurements in gravitational wave antennae
V. B. Braginsky, S. P. Vyatchanin
We propose Fabry-Perot cavity with corner reflectors instead of spherical mirrors to reduce the contribution of thermoelastic noise in the coating which is relatively large for sph…
Analysis of LIGO data for gravitational waves from binary neutron stars
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, B. Abbott
We report on a search for gravitational waves from coalescing compact binary systems in the Milky Way and the Magellanic Clouds. The analysis uses data taken by two of the three LI…
Measurements of the optical mirror coating properties
V. B. Braginsky, A. A. Samoilenko
The results of measurement of optical mirror coating are presented. These results indicate that Standard Quantum Limit of sensitivity can be reached in the second stage of LIGO pro…
