Environmental Noise in Advanced LIGO Detectors

P. Nguyen, R. M. S. Schofield, A. Effler +215

The sensitivity of the Advanced LIGO detectors to gravitational waves can be affected by environmental disturbances external to the detectors themselves. Since the transition from…

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,…

Exploring a search for long-duration transient gravitational waves associated with magnetar bursts

Ryan Quitzow-James, James Brau, James Clark +6

Soft gamma repeaters and anomalous X-ray pulsars are thought to be magnetars, neutron stars with strong magnetic fields of order --$10^{15} \, \mathrm{gauss…

Multivariate Classification with Random Forests for Gravitational Wave Searches of Black Hole Binary Coalescence

Paul T. Baker, Sarah Caudill, Kari A. Hodge +3

Searches for gravitational waves produced by coalescing black hole binaries with total masses M use matched filtering with templates of short duration. Non-Gau…

Measuring neutron-star ellipticity with measurements of the stochastic gravitational-wave background

Dipongkar Talukder, Eric Thrane, Sukanta Bose +1

Galactic neutron stars are a promising source of gravitational waves in the analysis band of detectors such as LIGO and Virgo. Previous searches for gravitational waves from neutro…

Implications For The Origin Of GRB 051103 From LIGO Observations

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, J. Abadie, B. P. Abbott +568

We present the results of a LIGO search for gravitational waves (GWs) associated with GRB 051103, a short-duration hard-spectrum gamma-ray burst (GRB) whose electromagnetically det…
