The Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array Sky Survey (VLASS). Science case and survey design

M. Lacy, S. A. Baum, C. J. Chandler +75

The Very Large Array Sky Survey (VLASS) is a synoptic, all-sky radio sky survey with a unique combination of high angular resolution (2.5"), sensitivity (a 1 goal of 70…

All-sky search for short gravitational-wave bursts in the second Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo run

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1186

We present the results of a search for short-duration gravitational-wave transients in the data from the second observing run of Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo. We search for gra…

All-sky search for continuous gravitational waves from isolated neutron stars using Advanced LIGO O2 data

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1130

We present results of an all-sky search for continuous gravitational waves (CWs), which can be produced by fast-spinning neutron stars with an asymmetry around their rotation axis,…

Ram Pressure Stripping Made Easy: An Analytical Approach

J. Koppen, P. Jachym, R. Taylor +1

The removal of gas by ram pressure stripping of galaxies is treated by a purely kinematic description. The solution has two asymptotic limits: if the duration of the ram pressure p…

Quantum correlation measurements in interferometric gravitational wave detectors

D. V. Martynov, V. V. Frolov, S. Kandhasamy +199

Quantum fluctuations in the phase and amplitude quadratures of light set limitations on the sensitivity of modern optical instruments. The sensitivity of the interferometric gravit…
