LIGO A: Detector Design and Science Prospects Beyond A+
L. Sun, K. Kuns, B. J. J. Slagmolen +1153
We present the LIGO A detector concept, an upgrade for the LIGO observatories based on room-temperature interferometers beyond the fifth observing run (O5). Building on th…
Sub-Torque-Balance Upper Limits on Continuous Gravitational Waves from Scorpius X-1
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1836
We present the results of a search for continuous gravitational waves from the low-mass X-ray binary Scorpius X-1 using LIGO data from the first part of the fourth LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA…
GWTC-5.0: Population Properties of Merging Compact Binaries
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1813
We present the population properties of merging compact binaries inferred using 267 mergers from the cumulative Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog 5.0. As this data set contains…
GWTC-5.0: Observations from the Second Part of the Fourth LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA Observing Run and Updates to the Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1827
Version 5.0 of the Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog (GWTC-5.0) adds new candidates detected by the LIGO Virgo KAGRA network of observatories through the second part of the four…
GWTC-5.0: Methods for Identifying and Characterizing Gravitational-wave Transients
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1822
The Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog (GWTC) is a collection of candidate gravitational-wave transient signals identified and characterized by the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA Collaboration…
GWTC-5.0: An Introduction to Version 5.0 of the Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1822
The Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog (GWTC) is a collection of short-duration (transient) gravitational-wave signals identified by the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA Collaboration in gravita…
