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…
Search for Gravitational Wave Bursts from Six Magnetars
J. Abadie, B. P. Abbott, R. Abbott +765
Soft gamma repeaters (SGRs) and anomalous X-ray pulsars (AXPs) are thought to be magnetars: neutron stars powered by extreme magnetic fields. These rare objects are characterized b…
Effect of heat treatment on mechanical dissipation in TaO coatings
I W Martin, R Bassiri, R Nawrodt +14
Thermal noise arising from mechanical dissipation in dielectric reflective coatings is expected to critically limit the sensitivity of precision measurement systems such as high-re…
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…
