Search for Gravitational Wave Bursts from Soft Gamma Repeaters
LIGO Scientific Collaboration, S. Barthelmy, N. Gehrels +2
We present the results of a LIGO search for short-duration gravitational waves (GWs) associated with Soft Gamma Repeater (SGR) bursts. This is the first search sensitive to neutron…
Discovery of Hot Gas in Outflow in NGC3379
G. Trinchieri, S. Pellegrini, G. Fabbiano +10
We report the discovery of a faint (L_x ~ 4 10^37 erg/s, 0.5-2 keV), out-flowing gaseous hot interstellar medium (ISM) in NGC 3379. This represents the lowest X-ray luminosity ever…
Models for Low-Mass X-Ray Binaries in the Elliptical Galaxies NGC3379 and NGC4278: Comparison with Observations
T. Fragos, V. Kalogera, K. Belczynski +11
We present theoretical models for the formation and evolution of populations of low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXB) in the two elliptical galaxies NGC 3379 and NGC 4278. The models are…
Neutron Stars: Formed, Spun and Kicked
Vassiliki Kalogera, Francesca Valsecchi, Bart Willems
One of the primary goals when studying stellar systems with neutron stars has been to reveal the physical properties of progenitors and understand how neutron star spins and birth…
Gravitational-Wave Astronomy with Inspiral Signals of Spinning Compact-Object Binaries
M. V. van der Sluys, C. Roever, A. Stroeer +6
Inspiral signals from binary compact objects (black holes and neutron stars) are primary targets of the ongoing searches by ground-based gravitational-wave interferometers (LIGO, V…
Short Gamma-Ray Bursts and Binary Mergers in Spiral and Elliptical Galaxies: Redshift Distribution and Hosts
R. O'Shaughnessy, V. Kalogera, K. Belczynski
To test whether the short GRB rates, redshift distribution and host galaxies are consistent with current theoretical predictions, we use avery large database of population synthesi…
