Posterior samples of the parameters of binary black holes from Advanced LIGO, Virgo's second observing run
Soumi De, Christopher M. Biwer, Collin D. Capano +2
This paper presents a parameter estimation analysis of the seven binary black hole mergers---GW170104, GW170608, GW170729, GW170809, GW170814, GW170818, and GW170823---detected dur…
Investigating the noise residuals around the gravitational wave event GW150914
Alex B. Nielsen, Alexander H. Nitz, Collin D. Capano +1
We use the Pearson cross-correlation statistic proposed by Liu and Jackson, and employed by Creswell et al., to look for statistically significant correlations between the LIGO Han…
1-OGC: The first open gravitational-wave catalog of binary mergers from analysis of public Advanced LIGO data
Alexander H. Nitz, Collin Capano, Alex B. Nielsen +4
We present the first Open Gravitational-wave Catalog (1-OGC), obtained by using the public data from Advanced LIGO's first observing run to search for compact-object binary mergers…
PyCBC Inference: A Python-based parameter estimation toolkit for compact binary coalescence signals
C. M. Biwer, Collin D. Capano, Soumi De +4
We introduce new modules in the open-source PyCBC gravitational- wave astronomy toolkit that implement Bayesian inference for compact-object binary mergers. We review the Bayesian…
Improving astrophysical parameter estimation via offline noise subtraction for Advanced LIGO
J. C. Driggers, S. Vitale, A. P. Lundgren +228
The Advanced LIGO detectors have recently completed their second observation run successfully. The run lasted for approximately 10 months and lead to multiple new discoveries. The…
PyCBC Live: Rapid Detection of Gravitational Waves from Compact Binary Mergers
Alexander H. Nitz, Tito Dal Canton, Derek Davis +1
We introduce an efficient and straightforward technique for rapidly detecting gravitational waves from compact binary mergers. We show that this method achieves the low latencies r…
