Improving astrophysical parameter estimation via offline noise subtraction for Advanced LIGO
J. C. Driggers, S. Vitale, A. P. Lundgren +228
The Advanced LIGO detectors have recently completed their second observation run successfully. The run lasted for approximately 10 months and lead to multiple new discoveries. The…
Identification and mitigation of narrow spectral artifacts that degrade searches for persistent gravitational waves in the first two observing runs of Advanced LIGO
P. B. Covas, A. Effler, E. Goetz +260
Searches are under way in Advanced LIGO and Virgo data for persistent gravitational waves from continuous sources, e.g. rapidly rotating galactic neutron stars, and stochastic sour…
Effects of transients in LIGO suspensions on searches for gravitational waves
M. Walker, T. D. Abbott, S. M. Aston +200
This paper presents an analysis of the transient behavior of the Advanced LIGO suspensions used to seismically isolate the optics. We have characterized the transients in the longi…
Narrow-band search of continuous gravitational-wave signals from Crab and Vela pulsars in Virgo VSR4 data
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Aasi +894
In this paper we present the results of a coherent narrow-band search for continuous gravitational-wave signals from the Crab and Vela pulsars conducted on Virgo VSR4 data. In orde…
Upper Limit to the Transverse to Longitudinal Motion Coupling of a Waveguide Mirror
S. Leavey, B. W. Barr, A. S. Bell +12
Waveguide mirrors possess nano-structured surfaces which can potentially provide a significant reduction in thermal noise over conventional dielectric mirrors. To avoid introducing…
Multi-color Cavity Metrology
Kiwamu Izumi, Koji Arai, Bryan Barr +11
Long baseline laser interferometers used for gravitational wave detection have proven to be very complicated to control. In order to have sufficient sensitivity to astrophysical gr…
