Sub-Torque-Balance Upper Limits on Continuous Gravitational Waves from Scorpius X-1

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1836

We present the results of a search for continuous gravitational waves from the low-mass X-ray binary Scorpius X-1 using LIGO data from the first part of the fourth LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA…

GWTC-5.0: Population Properties of Merging Compact Binaries

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1813

We present the population properties of merging compact binaries inferred using 267 mergers from the cumulative Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog 5.0. As this data set contains…

Searches for Binary Mergers with Sub-solar Mass Components in Data from the First Part of LIGO--Virgo--KAGRA's Fourth Observing Run

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1832

We report on a gravitational wave search for compact binary coalescences involving at least one component with mass between to , and ratio of component m…

GWTC-4.0: Population Properties of Merging Compact Binaries

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1805

We detail the population properties of merging compact objects using 158 mergers from the cumulative Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog 4.0, which includes three types of binary…

Evidence of the pair instability gap from black hole masses

Hui Tong, Maya Fishbach, Eric Thrane +13

Stellar theory predicts a forbidden range of black-hole masses between -- due to pair-instability supernovae, but evidence for such a gap in the mass distri…

rays run on time

Daniel Beltrán Martínez, Felipe J. Llanes-Estrada, Gloria Tejedor-García

Significant absorption of radiation is usually accompanied by refraction. This is not the case for rays travelling cosmic distances. We show that the real and imaginary parts o…
