Constraints on cosmic strings from the LIGO-Virgo gravitational-wave detectors
J. Aasi, J. Abadie, B. P. Abbott +873
Cosmic strings can give rise to a large variety of interesting astrophysical phenomena. Among them, powerful bursts of gravitational waves (GWs) produced by cusps are a promising o…
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…
Sensitivity to Gravitational Waves from Compact Binary Coalescences Achieved during LIGO's Fifth and Virgo's First Science Run
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Abadie +707
We summarize the sensitivity achieved by the LIGO and Virgo gravitational wave detectors for compact binary coalescence (CBC) searches during LIGO's fifth science run and Virgo's f…
