A Proposed Search for the Detection of Gravitational Waves from Eccentric Binary Black Holes

Vaibhav Tiwari, Sergey Klimenko, Nelson Christensen +14

Most of compact binary systems are expected to circularize before the frequency of emitted gravitational waves (GWs) enters the sensitivity band of the ground based interferometric…

Sensitivity Comparison of Searches for Binary Black Hole Coalescences with Ground-based Gravitational-Wave Detectors

Satya Mohapatra, Laura Cadonati, Sarah Caudill +7

Searches for gravitational-wave transients from binary black hole coalescences typically rely on one of two approaches: matched filtering with templates and morphology-independent…

Improving the sensitivity of a search for coalescing binary black holes with non-precessing spins in gravitational wave data

Stephen Privitera, Satyanarayan R. P. Mohapatra, Parameswaran Ajith +6

We demonstrate the implementation of a sensitive search pipeline for gravitational waves from coalescing binary black holes whose components have spins aligned with the orbital ang…

Parameter estimation for compact binary coalescence signals with the first generation gravitational-wave detector network

the LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Aasi +801

Compact binary systems with neutron stars or black holes are one of the most promising sources for ground-based gravitational wave detectors. Gravitational radiation encodes rich i…

The characterization of Virgo data and its impact on gravitational-wave searches

J. Aasi, J. Abadie, B. P. Abbott +798

Between 2007 and 2010 Virgo collected data in coincidence with the LIGO and GEO gravitational-wave (GW) detectors. These data have been searched for GWs emitted by cataclysmic phen…
