Can Neutron Star Tidal Effects Obscure Deviations from General Relativity?

Stephanie M. Brown, Badri Krishnan, Rahul Somasundaram +1

One of the main goals of gravitational-wave astrophysics is to study gravity in the strong-field regime and constrain deviations from general relativity (GR). Any such deviation af…

Tidal deformations of slowly spinning isolated horizons

A. Ribes Metidieri, B. Bonga, B. Krishnan

It is generally believed that tidal deformations of a black hole in an external field, as measured using its gravitational field multipoles, vanish. However, this does not mean tha…

Search for continuous gravitational waves from neutron stars in globular cluster NGC 6544

B. P. Abbott, R. Abbott, T. D. Abbott +953

We describe a directed search for continuous gravitational waves in data from the sixth LIGO science run. The target was the nearby globular cluster NGC 6544 at a distance of 2.7 k…

Results of the deepest all-sky survey for continuous gravitational waves on LIGO S6 data running on the Einstein@Home volunteer distributed computing project

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, The Virgo Collaboration

We report results of a deep all-sky search for periodic gravitational waves from isolated neutron stars in data from the S6 LIGO science run. The search was possible thanks to the…
