Search for gravitational waves associated with gamma-ray bursts during LIGO science run 6 and Virgo science runs 2 and 3

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, Virgo Collaboration, J. Abadie +807

We present the results of a search for gravitational waves associated with 154 gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) that were detected by satellite-based gamma-ray experiments in 2009-2010, dur…

Implications For The Origin Of GRB 051103 From LIGO Observations

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, J. Abadie, B. P. Abbott +568

We present the results of a LIGO search for gravitational waves (GWs) associated with GRB 051103, a short-duration hard-spectrum gamma-ray burst (GRB) whose electromagnetically det…

Beating the spin-down limit on gravitational wave emission from the Vela pulsar

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Abadie +747

We present direct upper limits on continuous gravitational wave emission from the Vela pulsar using data from the Virgo detector's second science run. These upper limits have been…

Predictions for the Rates of Compact Binary Coalescences Observable by Ground-based Gravitational-wave Detectors

LIGO Scientific Collaboration, Virgo Collaboration, J. Abadie +709

We present an up-to-date, comprehensive summary of the rates for all types of compact binary coalescence sources detectable by the Initial and Advanced versions of the ground-based…
