Search for post-merger gravitational waves from the remnant of the binary neutron star merger GW170817
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1105
The first observation of a binary neutron star coalescence by the Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo gravitational-wave detectors offers an unprecedented opportunity to study matter…
Estimating the Contribution of Dynamical Ejecta in the Kilonova Associated with GW170817
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1100
The source of the gravitational-wave signal GW170817, very likely a binary neutron star merger, was also observed electromagnetically, providing the first multi-messenger observati…
First search for nontensorial gravitational waves from known pulsars
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1050
We present results from the first directed search for nontensorial gravitational waves. While general relativity allows for tensorial (plus and cross) modes only, a generic metric…
First low-frequency Einstein@Home all-sky search for continuous gravitational waves in Advanced LIGO data
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1039
We report results of a deep all-sky search for periodic gravitational waves from isolated neutron stars in data from the first Advanced LIGO observing run. This search investigates…
Upper Limits on Gravitational Waves from Scorpius X-1 from a Model-Based Cross-Correlation Search in Advanced LIGO Data
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1046
We present the results of a semicoherent search for continuous gravitational waves from the low-mass X-ray binary Scorpius X-1, using data from the first Advanced LIGO observing ru…
Directional limits on persistent gravitational waves from Advanced LIGO's first observing run
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +993
We employ gravitational-wave radiometry to map the gravitational waves stochastic background expected from a variety of contributing mechanisms and test the assumption of isotropy…
