All-sky search for long-duration gravitational-wave transients in the first part of the fourth LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA Observing run

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1772

We present an all-sky search for long-duration gravitational waves (GWs) from the first part of the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA fourth observing run (O4), called O4a and comprising data taken…

Squeezing the quantum noise of a gravitational-wave detector below the standard quantum limit

Wenxuan Jia, Victoria Xu, Kevin Kuns +168

Precision measurements of space and time, like those made by the detectors of the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO), are often confronted with fundamental…

All-sky search in early O3 LIGO data for continuous gravitational-wave signals from unknown neutron stars in binary systems

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, R. Abbott +1369

Rapidly spinning neutron stars are promising sources of persistent, continuous gravitational waves. Detecting such a signal would allow probing of the physical properties of matter…

GW170817: Observation of Gravitational Waves from a Binary Neutron Star Inspiral

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, The Virgo Collaboration

On August 17, 2017 at 12:41:04 UTC the Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo gravitational-wave detectors made their first observation of a binary neutron star inspiral. The signal, GW1…
