The Transient Gravitational-Wave Sky
Nils Andersson, John Baker, Kris Belczynski +44
Interferometric detectors will very soon give us an unprecedented view of the gravitational-wave sky, and in particular of the explosive and transient Universe. Now is the time to…
The lowest-mass stellar black holes: catastrophic death of neutron stars in gamma-ray bursts
K. Belczynski, R. O'Shaughnessy, V. Kalogera +3
Mergers of double neutron stars are considered the most likely progenitors for short gamma-ray bursts. Indeed such a merger can produce a black hole with a transient accreting toru…
Coherent searches for periodic gravitational waves from unknown isolated sources and Scorpius X-1: results from the second LIGO science run
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration
We carry out two searches for periodic gravitational waves using the most sensitive few hours of data from the second LIGO science run. The first search is targeted at isolated, pr…
Upper Limits on a Stochastic Background of Gravitational Waves
LIGO Scientific Collaboration, B. Abbott
The Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory (LIGO) has performed a third science run with much improved sensitivities of all three interferometers. We present an analys…
Upper limits on the strength of periodic gravitational waves from PSR J1939+2134
B. Allen, G. Woan
The first science run of the LIGO and GEO gravitational wave detectors presented the opportunity to test methods of searching for gravitational waves from known pulsars. Here we pr…
Analysis of LIGO data for gravitational waves from binary neutron stars
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, B. Abbott
We report on a search for gravitational waves from coalescing compact binary systems in the Milky Way and the Magellanic Clouds. The analysis uses data taken by two of the three LI…
