Diving below the spin-down limit: Constraints on gravitational waves from the energetic young pulsar PSR J0537-6910

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1589

We present a search for continuous gravitational-wave signals from the young, energetic X-ray pulsar PSR J0537-6910 using data from the second and third observing runs of LIGO and…

Population Properties of Compact Objects from the Second LIGO-Virgo Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, R. Abbott +1338

We report on the population of the 47 compact binary mergers detected with a false-alarm rate 1/yr in the second LIGO--Virgo Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog, GWTC-2. We observ…

Tests of General Relativity with Binary Black Holes from the second LIGO-Virgo Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, R. Abbott +1344

Gravitational waves enable tests of general relativity in the highly dynamical and strong-field regime. Using events detected by LIGO-Virgo up to 1 October 2019, we evaluate the co…

GW190521: A Binary Black Hole Merger with a Total Mass of

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, R. Abbott +1253

On May 21, 2019 at 03:02:29 UTC Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo observed a short duration gravitational-wave signal, GW190521, with a three-detector network signal-to-noise ratio…
