Open data from the first and second observing runs of Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, R. Abbott +1245

Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo are actively monitoring the sky and collecting gravitational-wave strain data with sufficient sensitivity to detect signals routinely. In this pape…

LISA Pathfinder Performance Confirmed in an Open-Loop Configuration: Results from the Free-Fall Actuation Mode

M. Armano, H. Audley, J. Baird +75

We report on the results of the LISA Pathfinder (LPF) free-fall mode experiment, in which the control force needed to compensate the quasistatic differential force acting on two te…

An Optically Targeted Search for Gravitational Waves emitted by Core-Collapse Supernovae during the First and Second Observing Runs of Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1195

We present the results from a search for gravitational-wave transients associated with core-collapse supernovae observed within a source distance of approximately 20 Mpc during the…

The Missing Link in Gravitational-Wave Astronomy: Discoveries waiting in the decihertz range

Manuel Arca Sedda, Christopher P. L. Berry, Karan Jani +27

The gravitational-wave astronomical revolution began in 2015 with LIGO's observation of the coalescence of two stellar-mass black holes. Over the coming decades, ground-based detec…

Model comparison from LIGO-Virgo data on GW170817's binary components and consequences for the merger remnant

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1191

GW170817 is the very first observation of gravitational waves originating from the coalescence of two compact objects in the mass range of neutron stars, accompanied by electromagn…
