On similarity of binary black hole gravitational-wave skymaps: to observe or to wait?
Salvatore Vitale, Reed Essick, Erik Katsavounidis +2
Localization estimates for GW150914, the first binary black hole detected by the LIGO instruments, were shared with partner facilities for electromagnetic follow-up. While the sour…
Impact of the tidal p-g instability on the gravitational wave signal from coalescing binary neutron stars
Reed Essick, Salvatore Vitale, Nevin N. Weinberg
Recent studies suggest that coalescing neutron stars are subject to a fluid instability involving the nonlinear coupling of the tide to -modes and -modes. Its influence on th…
Upper limits on the rates of binary neutron star and neutron-star--black-hole mergers from Advanced LIGO's first observing run
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +958
We report here the non-detection of gravitational waves from the merger of binary neutron star systems and neutron-star--black-hole systems during the first observing run of Advanc…
Exploring the Sensitivity of Next Generation Gravitational Wave Detectors
B. P. Abbott, R. Abbott, T. D. Abbott +720
The second-generation of gravitational-wave detectors are just starting operation, and have already yielding their first detections. Research is now concentrated on how to maximize…
