Neutron Star Extreme Matter Observatory: A kilohertz-band gravitational-wave detector in the global network

K. Ackley, V. B. Adya, P. Agrawal +160

Gravitational waves from coalescing neutron stars encode information about nuclear matter at extreme densities, inaccessible by laboratory experiments. The late inspiral is influen…

Observation of a potential future sensitivity limitation from ground motion at LIGO Hanford

Jan Harms, Edgard Bonilla, Michael Coughlin +6

A first detection of terrestrial gravity noise in gravitational-wave detectors is a formidable challenge. With the help of environmental sensors, it can in principle be achieved be…

Early Earthquake Detection with a Dual Torsion-Beam Gravimeter

D. J. McManus, P. W. F. Forsyth, N. A. Holland +4

Ground mass is redistributed during an earthquake causing the local gravitational potential to change. These gravitational fluctuations travel at the speed of light meaning they wi…

Implications of dedicated seismometer measurements on Newtonian-noise cancellation for Advanced LIGO

M. W. Coughlin, J. Harms, J. Driggers +5

Newtonian gravitational noise from seismic fields will become a limiting noise source at low frequency for second-generation, gravitational-wave detectors. It is planned to use sei…

Improving astrophysical parameter estimation via offline noise subtraction for Advanced LIGO

J. C. Driggers, S. Vitale, A. P. Lundgren +228

The Advanced LIGO detectors have recently completed their second observation run successfully. The run lasted for approximately 10 months and lead to multiple new discoveries. The…

Search for transient gravitational waves in coincidence with short duration radio transients during 2007-2013

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, others +999

We present an archival search for transient gravitational-wave bursts in coincidence with 27 single pulse triggers from Green Bank Telescope pulsar surveys, using the LIGO, Virgo a…
