Upper Limits on the Stochastic Gravitational-Wave Background from Advanced LIGO's First Observing Run

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +992

A wide variety of astrophysical and cosmological sources are expected to contribute to a stochastic gravitational-wave background. Following the observations of GW150914 and GW1512…

All-sky search for short gravitational-wave bursts in the first Advanced LIGO run

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +986

We present the results from an all-sky search for short-duration gravitational waves in the data of the first run of the Advanced LIGO detectors between September 2015 and January…

Search for Gravitational Waves Associated with Gamma-Ray Bursts During the First Advanced LIGO Observing Run and Implications for the Origin of GRB 150906B

LIGO Scientific Collaboration, Virgo Collaboration, IPN Collaboration +1002

We present the results of the search for gravitational waves (GWs) associated with -ray bursts detected during the first observing run of the Advanced Laser Interferometer Gravi…

Effects of waveform model systematics on the interpretation of GW150914

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +999

Parameter estimates of GW150914 were obtained using Bayesian inference, based on three semi-analytic waveform models for binary black hole coalescences. These waveform models diffe…

A simple model to describe intrinsic stellar noise for exoplanet detection around red giants

Thomas S. H. North, William J. Chaplin, Ronald L. Gilliland +7

In spite of the huge advances in exoplanet research provided by the NASA Kepler Mission, there remain only a small number of transit detections around evolved stars. Here we presen…

Model-independent inference on compact-binary observations

Ilya Mandel, Will M. Farr, Andrea Colonna +3

The recent advanced LIGO detections of gravitational waves from merging binary black holes enhance the prospect of exploring binary evolution via gravitational-wave observations of…
