The NANOGrav 11-Year Data Set: Limits on Gravitational Wave Memory

K. Aggarwal, Z. Arzoumanian, P. T. Baker +58

The mergers of supermassive black hole binaries (SMBHBs) promise to be incredible sources of gravitational waves (GWs). While the oscillatory part of the merger gravitational wavef…

The NANOGrav 11-Year Data Set: Evolution of Gravitational Wave Background Statistics

J. S. Hazboun, J. Simon, S. R. Taylor +60

An ensemble of inspiraling supermassive black hole binaries should produce a stochastic background of very low frequency gravitational waves. This stochastic background is predicte…

Gravitational Waves from Supernova Mass Loss and Natal Kicks in Close Binaries

A. Miguel Holgado, Paul M. Ricker

Some fraction of compact binaries that merge within a Hubble time may have formed from two massive stars in isolation. For this isolated-binary formation channel, binaries need to…

An Optically Targeted Search for Gravitational Waves emitted by Core-Collapse Supernovae during the First and Second Observing Runs of Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1195

We present the results from a search for gravitational-wave transients associated with core-collapse supernovae observed within a source distance of approximately 20 Mpc during the…

Model comparison from LIGO-Virgo data on GW170817's binary components and consequences for the merger remnant

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1191

GW170817 is the very first observation of gravitational waves originating from the coalescence of two compact objects in the mass range of neutron stars, accompanied by electromagn…
