Directly comparing GW150914 with numerical solutions of Einstein's equations for binary black hole coalescence
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +979
We compare GW150914 directly to simulations of coalescing binary black holes in full general relativity, accounting for all the spin-weighted quadrupolar modes, and separately acco…
GW150914: Implications for the stochastic gravitational wave background from binary black holes
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration
The LIGO detection of the gravitational wave transient GW150914, from the inspiral and merger of two black holes with masses , suggests a population of…
GW150914: The Advanced LIGO Detectors in the Era of First Discoveries
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, The Virgo Collaboration
Following a major upgrade, the two advanced detectors of the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO) held their first observation run between September 2015 and…
High-energy Neutrino follow-up search of Gravitational Wave Event GW150914 with ANTARES and IceCube
S. Adrián-Martínez, A. Albert, M. André +1387
We present the high-energy-neutrino follow-up observations of the first gravitational wave transient GW150914 observed by the Advanced LIGO detectors on Sept. 14th, 2015. We search…
Observing gravitational-wave transient GW150914 with minimal assumptions
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration
The gravitational-wave signal GW150914 was first identified on Sept 14 2015 by searches for short-duration gravitational-wave transients. These searches identify time-correlated tr…
Properties of the Binary Black Hole Merger GW150914
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +987
On September 14, 2015, the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO) detected a gravitational-wave transient (GW150914); we characterize the properties of the sour…
