A search for gravitational waves associated with the August 2006 timing glitch of the Vela pulsar
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, J. Abadie, B. P. Abbott +499
The physical mechanisms responsible for pulsar timing glitches are thought to excite quasi-normal mode oscillations in their parent neutron star that couple to gravitational wave e…
First joint search for gravitational-wave bursts in LIGO and GEO600 data
LIGO Scientific Collaboration, B. Abbott
We present the results of the first joint search for gravitational-wave bursts by the LIGO and GEO600 detectors. We search for bursts with characteristic central frequencies in the…
LIGO: The Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, B. Abbott
The goal of the Laser Interferometric Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) is to detect and study gravitational waves of astrophysical origin. Direct detection of gravitational wa…
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…
Coherent searches for periodic gravitational waves from unknown isolated sources and Scorpius X-1: results from the second LIGO science run
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration
We carry out two searches for periodic gravitational waves using the most sensitive few hours of data from the second LIGO science run. The first search is targeted at isolated, pr…
Search for gravitational wave bursts in LIGO's third science run
LIGO Scientific Collaboration
We report on a search for gravitational wave bursts in data from the three LIGO interferometric detectors during their third science run. The search targets subsecond bursts in the…
Upper limits on the strength of periodic gravitational waves from PSR J1939+2134
B. Allen, G. Woan
The first science run of the LIGO and GEO gravitational wave detectors presented the opportunity to test methods of searching for gravitational waves from known pulsars. Here we pr…
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…
