All-sky search for long-duration gravitational-wave transients in the first part of the fourth LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA Observing run

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1772

We present an all-sky search for long-duration gravitational waves (GWs) from the first part of the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA fourth observing run (O4), called O4a and comprising data taken…

A new spin on LIGO-Virgo binary black holes

Sylvia Biscoveanu, Maximiliano Isi, Salvatore Vitale +1

Gravitational waves from binary black holes have the potential to yield information on both of the intrinsic parameters that characterize the compact objects: their masses and spin…

GW170608: Observation of a 19-solar-mass Binary Black Hole Coalescence

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1101

On June 8, 2017 at 02:01:16.49 UTC, a gravitational-wave signal from the merger of two stellar-mass black holes was observed by the two Advanced LIGO detectors with a network signa…

First narrow-band search for continuous gravitational waves from known pulsars in advanced detector data

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1096

Spinning neutron stars asymmetric with respect to their rotation axis are potential sources of continuous gravitational waves for ground-based interferometric detectors. In the cas…

Polarization-based Tests of Gravity with the Stochastic Gravitational-Wave Background

Thomas Callister, A. Sylvia Biscoveanu, Nelson Christensen +7

The direct observation of gravitational waves with Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo offers novel opportunities to test general relativity in strong-field, highly dynamical regimes.…
