All-sky search for short gravitational-wave bursts in the second Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo run
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1186
We present the results of a search for short-duration gravitational-wave transients in the data from the second observing run of Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo. We search for gra…
On the Progenitor of Binary Neutron Star Merger GW170817
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1095
On 2017 August 17 the merger of two compact objects with masses consistent with two neutron stars was discovered through gravitational-wave (GW170817), gamma-ray (GRB 170817A), and…
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…
Gravitational Waves and Gamma-rays from a Binary Neutron Star Merger: GW170817 and GRB 170817A
LIGO Scientific Collaboration, Virgo Collaboration, Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor +1
On 2017 August 17, the gravitational-wave event GW170817 was observed by the Advanced LIGO and Virgo detectors, and the gamma-ray burst (GRB) GRB 170817A was observed independently…
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…
A gravitational-wave standard siren measurement of the Hubble constant
B. P. Abbott, R. Abbott, T. D. Abbott +1308
The detection of GW170817 in both gravitational waves and electromagnetic waves heralds the age of gravitational-wave multi-messenger astronomy. On 17 August 2017 the Advanced LIGO…
GW170817: Observation of Gravitational Waves from a Binary Neutron Star Inspiral
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, The Virgo Collaboration
On August 17, 2017 at 12:41:04 UTC the Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo gravitational-wave detectors made their first observation of a binary neutron star inspiral. The signal, GW1…
GW170814: A Three-Detector Observation of Gravitational Waves from a Binary Black Hole Coalescence
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1107
On August 14, 2017 at 10:30:43 UTC, the Advanced Virgo detector and the two Advanced LIGO detectors coherently observed a transient gravitational-wave signal produced by the coales…
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 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…
