Unconstrained hyperboloidal evolution of black holes in spherical symmetry with GBSSN and Z4c

Alex Vañó-Viñuales, Sascha Husa

We consider unconstrained evolution schemes for the hyperboloidal initial value problem in numerical relativity as a promising candidate for the optimally efficient numerical treat…

Spherical symmetry as a test case for unconstrained hyperboloidal evolution

Alex Vañó-Viñuales, Sascha Husa, David Hilditch

We consider the hyperboloidal initial value problem in numerical relativity, motivated by the goal to evolve radiating compact objects such as black hole binaries with a numerical…

A directed search for gravitational waves from Scorpius X-1 with initial LIGO

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Aasi +891

We present results of a search for continuously-emitted gravitational radiation, directed at the brightest low-mass X-ray binary, Scorpius X-1. Our semi-coherent analysis covers 10…

Narrow-band search of continuous gravitational-wave signals from Crab and Vela pulsars in Virgo VSR4 data

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Aasi +894

In this paper we present the results of a coherent narrow-band search for continuous gravitational-wave signals from the Crab and Vela pulsars conducted on Virgo VSR4 data. In orde…

Searching for stochastic gravitational waves using data from the two co-located LIGO Hanford detectors

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Aasi +873

Searches for a stochastic gravitational-wave background (SGWB) using terrestrial detectors typically involve cross-correlating data from pairs of detectors. The sensitivity of such…
