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…

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…

GW150914: Implications for the stochastic gravitational wave background from binary black holes

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration

The LIGO detection of the gravitational wave transient GW150914, from the inspiral and merger of two black holes with masses , suggests a population of…

Localization and broadband follow-up of the gravitational-wave transient GW150914

B. P. Abbott, R. Abbott, T. D. Abbott +1538

A gravitational-wave (GW) transient was identified in data recorded by the Advanced Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO) detectors on 2015 September 14. The e…
