Direct limits for scalar field dark matter from a gravitational-wave detector

Sander M. Vermeulen, Philip Relton, Hartmut Grote +20

The nature of dark matter remains unknown to date; several candidate particles are being considered in a dynamically changing research landscape. Scalar field dark matter is a prom…

Bilinear noise subtraction at the GEO 600 observatory

Nikhil Mukund, James Lough, Christoph Affeldt +8

Longitudinal control signals used to keep gravitational wave detectors at a stable operating point are often affected by modulations from test mass misalignments leading to an elev…

All-sky search for long-duration gravitational wave transients in the first Advanced LIGO observing run

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +990

We present the results of a search for long-duration gravitational wave transients in the data of the LIGO Hanford and LIGO Livingston second generation detectors between September…

Directional limits on persistent gravitational waves from Advanced LIGO's first observing run

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +993

We employ gravitational-wave radiometry to map the gravitational waves stochastic background expected from a variety of contributing mechanisms and test the assumption of isotropy…

Upper Limits on the Stochastic Gravitational-Wave Background from Advanced LIGO's First Observing Run

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +992

A wide variety of astrophysical and cosmological sources are expected to contribute to a stochastic gravitational-wave background. Following the observations of GW150914 and GW1512…

All-sky search for short gravitational-wave bursts in the first Advanced LIGO run

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +986

We present the results from an all-sky search for short-duration gravitational waves in the data of the first run of the Advanced LIGO detectors between September 2015 and January…
