First joint observation by the underground gravitational-wave detector, KAGRA, with GEO600

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1669

We report the results of the first joint observation of the KAGRA detector with GEO600. KAGRA is a cryogenic and underground gravitational-wave detector consisting of a laser inter…

First narrow-band search for continuous gravitational waves from known pulsars in advanced detector data

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1096

Spinning neutron stars asymmetric with respect to their rotation axis are potential sources of continuous gravitational waves for ground-based interferometric detectors. In the cas…
