PTF1 J082340.04+081936.5: A hot subdwarf B star with a low mass white dwarf companion in an 87 minute orbit

Thomas Kupfer, Jan van Roestel, Jared Brooks +19

We present the discovery of the hot subdwarf B star (sdB) binary PTF1 J082340.04+081936.5. The system has an orbital period P min (0.060761584(10) days), ma…

All-sky search for short gravitational-wave bursts in the first Advanced LIGO run

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +986

We present the results from an all-sky search for short-duration gravitational waves in the data of the first run of the Advanced LIGO detectors between September 2015 and January…

Effects of waveform model systematics on the interpretation of GW150914

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +999

Parameter estimates of GW150914 were obtained using Bayesian inference, based on three semi-analytic waveform models for binary black hole coalescences. These waveform models diffe…

Dwarf nova-type cataclysmic variable stars are significant radio emitters

Deanne L. Coppejans, Elmar G. Koerding, James C. A. Miller-Jones +7

We present 8--12\,GHz radio light curves of five dwarf nova (DN) type Cataclysmic Variable stars (CVs) in outburst (RX And, U Gem and Z Cam), or superoutburst (SU UMa and YZ Cnc),…

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…
