GW190521: A Binary Black Hole Merger with a Total Mass of
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, R. Abbott +1253
On May 21, 2019 at 03:02:29 UTC Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo observed a short duration gravitational-wave signal, GW190521, with a three-detector network signal-to-noise ratio…
Building A Field: The Future of Astronomy with Gravitational Waves, A State of The Profession Consideration for Astro2020
Kelly Holley-Bockelmann, Joey Shapiro Key, Brittany Kamai +28
Harnessing the sheer discovery potential of gravitational wave astronomy will require bold, deliberate, and sustained efforts to train and develop the requisite workforce. The next…
Global Stellar Budget for LIGO Black Holes
Karan Jani, Abraham Loeb
The binary black hole mergers observed by LIGO-Virgo gravitational-wave detectors pose two major challenges: (i) how to produce these massive black holes from stellar processes; an…
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…
What we can learn from multi-band observations of black hole binaries
Curt Cutler, Emanuele Berti, Karan Jani +12
The LIGO/Virgo gravitational-wave (GW) interferometers have to-date detected ten merging black hole (BH) binaries, some with masses considerably larger than had been anticipated. S…
Search for transient gravitational wave signals associated with magnetar bursts during Advanced LIGO's second observing run
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1129
We present the results of a search for short and intermediate-duration gravitational-wave signals from four magnetar bursts in Advanced LIGO's second observing run. We find no evid…
