Diving below the spin-down limit: Constraints on gravitational waves from the energetic young pulsar PSR J0537-6910

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1589

We present a search for continuous gravitational-wave signals from the young, energetic X-ray pulsar PSR J0537-6910 using data from the second and third observing runs of LIGO and…

Optimizing Serendipitous Detections of Kilonovae: Cadence and Filter Selection

Mouza Almualla, Shreya Anand, Michael W. Coughlin +9

The rise of multi-messenger astronomy has brought with it the need to exploit all available data streams and learn more about the astrophysical objects that fall within its breadth…

Comparing inclination dependent analyses of kilonova transients

J. Heinzel, M. W. Coughlin, T. Dietrich +7

The detection of AT2017gfo proved that binary neutron star mergers are progenitors of kilonovae. Using a combination of numerical-relativity and radiative-transfer simulations, the…

Search for Gravitational Waves Associated with Gamma-Ray Bursts Detected by Fermi and Swift During the LIGO-Virgo Run O3a

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, R. Abbott +1250

We search for gravitational-wave transients associated with gamma-ray bursts detected by the Fermi and Swift satellites during the first part of the third observing run of Advanced…

Population Properties of Compact Objects from the Second LIGO-Virgo Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, R. Abbott +1338

We report on the population of the 47 compact binary mergers detected with a false-alarm rate 1/yr in the second LIGO--Virgo Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog, GWTC-2. We observ…

Tests of General Relativity with Binary Black Holes from the second LIGO-Virgo Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, R. Abbott +1344

Gravitational waves enable tests of general relativity in the highly dynamical and strong-field regime. Using events detected by LIGO-Virgo up to 1 October 2019, we evaluate the co…
