All-sky Search for Periodic Gravitational Waves in the O1 LIGO Data
LIGO Scientific Collaboration, Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1042
We report on an all-sky search for periodic gravitational waves in the frequency band 20-475 Hz and with a frequency time derivative in the range of [-1.0, +0.1]e-8 Hz/s. Such a si…
The LIGO Open Science Center
Michele Vallisneri, Jonah Kanner, Roy Williams +2
The LIGO Open Science Center (LOSC) fulfills LIGO's commitment to release, archive, and serve LIGO data in a broadly accessible way to the scientific community and to the public, a…
Evidence for a Milky Way Tidal Stream Reaching Beyond 100 kpc
A. J. Drake, M. Catelan, S. G. Djorgovski +9
We present the analysis of 1,207 RR Lyrae found in photometry taken by the Catalina Survey's Mount Lemmon telescope. By combining accurate distances for these stars with measuremen…
Exploring the Time Domain With Synoptic Sky Surveys
S. G. Djorgovski, A. A. Mahabal, A. J. Drake +3
Synoptic sky surveys are becoming the largest data generators in astronomy, and they are opening a new research frontier, that touches essentially every field of astronomy. Opening…
Highly Variable Objects in the Palomar-QUEST Survey: A Blazar Search using Optical Variability
Anne Bauer, Charles Baltay, Paolo Coppi +11
We identify 3,113 highly variable objects in 7,200 square degrees of the Palomar-QUEST Survey, which each varied by more than 0.4 magnitudes simultaneously in two broadband optical…
Skyalert: Real-time Astronomy for You and Your Robots
R. D. Williams, S. G. Djorgovski, A. J. Drake +2
Skyalert.org is a web application to collect and disseminate observations about time-critical astronomical transients, and to add annotations and intelligent machine-learning to th…
