Search for Gravitational Waves from Low Mass Compact Binary Coalescence in LIGO's Sixth Science Run and Virgo's Science Runs 2 and 3
the LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Abadie +796
We report on a search for gravitational waves from coalescing compact binaries using LIGO and Virgo observations between July 7, 2009 and October 20, 2010. We searched for signals…
Towards a generic test of the strong field dynamics of general relativity using compact binary coalescence: Further investigations
T. G. F. Li, W. Del Pozzo, S. Vitale +7
In this paper we elaborate on earlier work by the same authors in which a novel Bayesian inference framework for testing the strong-field dynamics of General Relativity using coale…
Effect of calibration errors on Bayesian parameter estimation for gravitational wave signals from inspiral binary systems in the advanced detectors era
Salvatore Vitale, Walter Del Pozzo, Tjonnie G. F. Li +4
By 2015 the advanced versions of the gravitational-wave detectors Virgo and LIGO will be online. They will collect data in coincidence with enough sensitivity to potentially delive…
All-sky Search for Periodic Gravitational Waves in the Full S5 LIGO Data
J. Abadie, B. P. Abbott, R. Abbott +794
We report on an all-sky search for periodic gravitational waves in the frequency band 50-800 Hz and with the frequency time derivative in the range of 0 through -6e-9 Hz/s. Such a…
Towards a generic test of the strong field dynamics of general relativity using compact binary coalescence
T. G. F. Li, W. Del Pozzo, S. Vitale +7
Coalescences of binary neutron stars and/or black holes are amongst the most likely gravitational-wave signals to be observed in ground based interferometric detectors. Apart from…
Inference of the cosmological parameters from gravitational waves: application to second generation interferometers
Walter Del Pozzo
The advanced world-wide network of gravitational waves (GW) observatories is scheduled to begin operations within the current decade. Thanks to their improved sensitivity, they pro…
Testing General Relativity using Bayesian model selection: Applications to observations of gravitational waves from compact binary systems
Walter Del Pozzo, John Veitch, Alberto Vecchio
Second generation interferometric gravitational wave detectors, such as Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo, are expected to begin operation by 2015. Such instruments plan to reach se…
