Search for Gravitational Waves Associated with Gamma-Ray Bursts Detected by Fermi and Swift During the LIGO-Virgo Run O3a

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, R. Abbott +1250

We search for gravitational-wave transients associated with gamma-ray bursts detected by the Fermi and Swift satellites during the first part of the third observing run of Advanced…

Massive Stellar Triples Leading to Sequential Binary Black-Hole Mergers in the Field

Alejandro Vigna-Gómez, Silvia Toonen, Enrico Ramirez-Ruiz +3

Stellar triples with massive stellar components are common, and can lead to sequential binary black-hole mergers. Here, we outline the evolution towards these sequential mergers, a…

physiCal: A physical approach to the marginalization of LIGO calibration uncertainties

Salvatore Vitale, Carl-Johan Haster, Ling Sun +4

The data from ground based gravitational-wave detectors such as Advanced LIGO and Virgo must be calibrated to convert the digital output of photodetectors into a relative displacem…

Properties and astrophysical implications of the 150 Msun binary black hole merger GW190521

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, R. Abbott +1254

The gravitational-wave signal GW190521 is consistent with a binary black hole merger source at redshift 0.8 with unusually high component masses, and $6…

Multiband gravitational-wave searches for ultralight bosons

Ken K. Y. Ng, Maximiliano Isi, Carl-Johan Haster +1

Gravitational waves may be one of the few direct observables produced by ultralight bosons, conjectured dark matter candidates that could be the key to several problems in particle…
