Point Absorber Limits to Future Gravitational-Wave Detectors

W. Jia, H. Yamamoto, K. Kuns +198

High-quality optical resonant cavities require low optical loss, typically on the scale of parts per million. However, unintended micron-scale contaminants on the resonator mirrors…

All-sky Search for Continuous Gravitational Waves from Isolated Neutron Stars in the Early O3 LIGO Data

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1587

We report on an all-sky search for continuous gravitational waves in the frequency band 20-2000\,Hz and with a frequency time derivative in the range of …

Characterization of systematic error in Advanced LIGO calibration in the second half of O3

Ling Sun, Evan Goetz, Jeffrey S. Kissel +19

We present the probability distribution of the systematic errors in the most accurate, high-latency version of the reconstructed dimensionless strain , at the Hanford and Living…

Search for lensing signatures in the gravitational-wave observations from the first half of LIGO-Virgo's third observing run

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, R. Abbott +1378

We search for signatures of gravitational lensing in the gravitational-wave signals from compact binary coalescences detected by Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo during O3a, the fi…

Search for anisotropic gravitational-wave backgrounds using data from Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo's first three observing runs

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

We report results from searches for anisotropic stochastic gravitational-wave backgrounds using data from the first three observing runs of the Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo det…

Approaching the motional ground state of a 10 kg object

Chris Whittle, Evan D. Hall, Sheila Dwyer +197

The motion of a mechanical object -- even a human-sized object -- should be governed by the rules of quantum mechanics. Coaxing them into a quantum state is, however, difficult: th…
