Search for Gravitational Waves from Binary Black Hole Inspiral, Merger and Ringdown in LIGO-Virgo Data from 2009-2010
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Aasi +800
We report a search for gravitational waves from the inspiral, merger and ringdown of binary black holes (BBH) with total mass between 25 and 100 solar masses, in data taken at the…
Swift follow-up observations of candidate gravitational-wave transient events
P. A. Evans, J. K. Fridriksson, N. Gehrels +813
We present the first multi-wavelength follow-up observations of two candidate gravitational-wave (GW) transient events recorded by LIGO and Virgo in their 2009-2010 science run. Th…
Search for gravitational wave ringdowns from perturbed black holes in LIGO S4 data
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, B. Abbott
According to general relativity a perturbed black hole will settle to a stationary configuration by the emission of gravitational radiation. Such a perturbation will occur, for exa…
Search for Gravitational Waves from Low Mass Binary Coalescences in the First Year of LIGO's S5 Data
LIGO Scientific Collaboration, B. Abbott
We have searched for gravitational waves from coalescing low mass compact binary systems with a total mass between 2 and 35 Msun and a minimum component mass of 1 Msun using data f…
Implications for the Origin of GRB 070201 from LIGO Observations
LIGO Scientific Collaboration, K. Hurley
We analyzed the available LIGO data coincident with GRB 070201, a short duration hard spectrum gamma-ray burst whose electromagnetically determined sky position is coincident with…
Upper limit map of a background of gravitational waves
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, B. Abbott
We searched for an anisotropic background of gravitational waves using data from the LIGO S4 science run and a method that is optimized for point sources. This is appropriate if, f…
