Tests of General Relativity with GW170817
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1145
The recent discovery by Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo of a gravitational wave signal from a binary neutron star inspiral has enabled tests of general relativity (GR) with this n…
Search for gravitational waves from a long-lived remnant of the binary neutron star merger GW170817
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1138
One unanswered question about the binary neutron star coalescence GW170817 is the nature of its post-merger remnant. A previous search for post-merger gravitational waves targeted…
PyCBC Live: Rapid Detection of Gravitational Waves from Compact Binary Mergers
Alexander H. Nitz, Tito Dal Canton, Derek Davis +1
We introduce an efficient and straightforward technique for rapidly detecting gravitational waves from compact binary mergers. We show that this method achieves the low latencies r…
Properties of the binary neutron star merger GW170817
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1148
On August 17, 2017, the Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo gravitational-wave detectors observed a low-mass compact binary inspiral. The initial sky localization of the source of the…
Full Band All-sky Search for Periodic Gravitational Waves in the O1 LIGO Data
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1099
We report on a new all-sky search for periodic gravitational waves in the frequency band 475-2000 Hz and with a frequency time derivative in the range of [-1.0e-8, +1e-9] Hz/s. Pot…
A Search for Tensor, Vector, and Scalar Polarizations in the Stochastic Gravitational-Wave Background
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1097
The detection of gravitational waves with Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo has enabled novel tests of general relativity, including direct study of the polarization of gravitationa…
