Understanding Compact Object Formation and Natal Kicks: II. The case of XTE J1118+480
T. Fragos, B. Willems, V. Kalogera +4
In recent years, an increasing number of proper motions have been measured for Galactic X-ray binaries. When supplemented with accurate determinations of the component masses, orbi…
First joint search for gravitational-wave bursts in LIGO and GEO600 data
LIGO Scientific Collaboration, B. Abbott
We present the results of the first joint search for gravitational-wave bursts by the LIGO and GEO600 detectors. We search for bursts with characteristic central frequencies in the…
Parameter estimation of spinning binary inspirals using Markov-chain Monte Carlo
Marc van der Sluys, Vivien Raymond, Ilya Mandel +5
We present a Markov-chain Monte-Carlo (MCMC) technique to study the source parameters of gravitational-wave signals from the inspirals of stellar-mass compact binaries detected wit…
Beating the spin-down limit on gravitational wave emission from the Crab pulsar
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, B. Abbott, R. Abbott +440
We present direct upper limits on gravitational wave emission from the Crab pulsar using data from the first nine months of the fifth science run of the Laser Interferometer Gravit…
