Diving below the spin-down limit: Constraints on gravitational waves from the energetic young pulsar PSR J0537-6910

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1589

We present a search for continuous gravitational-wave signals from the young, energetic X-ray pulsar PSR J0537-6910 using data from the second and third observing runs of LIGO and…

GW190521: orbital eccentricity and signatures of dynamical formation in a binary black hole merger signal

Isobel M. Romero-Shaw, Paul D. Lasky, Eric Thrane +1

Pair instability supernovae are thought to restrict the formation of black holes in the mass range ~50 - 135 solar masses. However, black holes with masses within this "high mass g…

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…

Black-hole spectroscopy, the no-hair theorem and GW150914: Kerr vs. Occam

Juan Calderón Bustillo, Paul D. Lasky, Eric Thrane

The "no-hair" theorem states that astrophysical black holes are fully characterised by just two numbers: their mass and spin. The gravitational-wave emission from a perturbed black…

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…

GW190521 as a merger of Proca stars: a potential new vector boson of eV

Juan Calderón Bustillo, Nicolas Sanchis-Gual, Alejandro Torres-Forné +6

Advanced LIGO-Virgo reported a short gravitational-wave signal (GW190521) interpreted as a quasi-circular merger of black holes, one populating the pair-instability supernova gap,…
