GEO600 beam splitter thermal compensation system: new design and commissioning
Séverin Nadji, Holger Wittel, Nikhil Mukund +8
Gravitational waves have revolutionised the field of astronomy by providing scientists with a new way to observe the universe and gain a better understanding of exotic objects like…
First demonstration of neural sensing and control in a kilometer-scale gravitational wave observatory
Nikhil Mukund, James Lough, Aparna Bisht +9
Suspended optics in gravitational wave (GW) observatories are susceptible to alignment perturbations, particularly slow drifts over time, due to variations in temperature and seism…
All-sky search for short gravitational-wave bursts in the second Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo run
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1186
We present the results of a search for short-duration gravitational-wave transients in the data from the second observing run of Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo. We search for gra…
All-sky search for continuous gravitational waves from isolated neutron stars using Advanced LIGO O2 data
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1130
We present results of an all-sky search for continuous gravitational waves (CWs), which can be produced by fast-spinning neutron stars with an asymmetry around their rotation axis,…
Matrix Heater in the Gravitational Wave Observatory GEO 600
Holger Wittel, Christoph Affeldt, Aparna Bisht +7
Large scale laser interferometric gravitational wave detectors (GWDs), such as GEO 600 require high quality optics to reach their design sensitivity. The inevitable surface imperfe…
GEO 600 and the GEO-HF upgrade program: successes and challenges
K. L. Dooley, J. R. Leong, T. Adams +25
The German-British laser-interferometric gravitational wave detector GEO 600 is in its 14th year of operation since its first lock in 2001. After GEO 600 participated in science ru…
