GW250114: testing Hawking's area law and the Kerr nature of black holes

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1785

The gravitational-wave signal GW250114 was observed by the two LIGO detectors with a network matched-filter signal-to-noise ratio of 80. The signal was emitted by the coalescence o…

A search using GEO600 for gravitational waves coincident with fast radio bursts from SGR 1935+2154

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1780

The magnetar SGR 1935+2154 is the only known Galactic source of fast radio bursts (FRBs). FRBs from SGR 1935+2154 were first detected by CHIME/FRB and STARE2 in 2020 April, after t…

All-sky search in early O3 LIGO data for continuous gravitational-wave signals from unknown neutron stars in binary systems

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, R. Abbott +1369

Rapidly spinning neutron stars are promising sources of persistent, continuous gravitational waves. Detecting such a signal would allow probing of the physical properties of matter…
