Seismic isolation of Advanced LIGO: Review of strategy, instrumentation and performance

F. Matichard, B. Lantz, R. Mittleman +49

Isolating ground-based interferometric gravitational wave observatories from environmental disturbances is one of the great challenges of the advanced detector era. In order to dir…

Improved Upper Limits on the Stochastic Gravitational-Wave Background from 2009-2010 LIGO and Virgo Data

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Aasi +846

Gravitational waves from a variety of sources are predicted to superpose to create a stochastic background. This background is expected to contain unique information from throughou…

First all-sky search for continuous gravitational waves from unknown sources in binary systems

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Aasi +849

We present the first results of an all-sky search for continuous gravitational waves from unknown spinning neutron stars in binary systems using LIGO and Virgo data. Using a specia…

Search for gravitational wave ringdowns from perturbed intermediate mass black holes in LIGO-Virgo data from 2005-2010

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Aasi +849

We report results from a search for gravitational waves produced by perturbed intermediate mass black holes (IMBH) in data collected by LIGO and Virgo between 2005 and 2010. The se…
