Search for gravitational waves from binary black hole inspiral, merger and ringdown

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Abadie +721

We present the first modeled search for gravitational waves using the complete binary black hole gravitational waveform from inspiral through the merger and ringdown for binaries w…

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 search for gravitational waves from the youngest known neutron star

LIGO Scientific Collaboration, J. Abadie, B. P. Abbott +537

We present a search for periodic gravitational waves from the neutron star in the supernova remnant Cassiopeia A. The search coherently analyzes data in a 12-day interval taken fro…

An Upper Limit on the Stochastic Gravitational-Wave Background of Cosmological Origin

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration

A stochastic background of gravitational waves is expected to arise from a superposition of a large number of unresolved gravitational-wave sources of astrophysical and cosmologica…

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…
