Search for gravitational-wave signals associated with gamma-ray bursts during the second observing run of Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo

B. P. Abbott, R. Abbott, T. D. Abbott +1196

We present the results of targeted searches for gravitational-wave transients associated with gamma-ray bursts during the second observing run of Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo,…

Search for transient gravitational wave signals associated with magnetar bursts during Advanced LIGO's second observing run

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1129

We present the results of a search for short and intermediate-duration gravitational-wave signals from four magnetar bursts in Advanced LIGO's second observing run. We find no evid…

Constraining the p-mode--g-mode tidal instability with GW170817

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, The Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1136

We analyze the impact of a proposed tidal instability coupling -modes and -modes within neutron stars on GW170817. This non-resonant instability transfers energy from the orb…

Search for post-merger gravitational waves from the remnant of the binary neutron star merger GW170817

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1105

The first observation of a binary neutron star coalescence by the Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo gravitational-wave detectors offers an unprecedented opportunity to study matter…

Estimating the Contribution of Dynamical Ejecta in the Kilonova Associated with GW170817

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1100

The source of the gravitational-wave signal GW170817, very likely a binary neutron star merger, was also observed electromagnetically, providing the first multi-messenger observati…

Upper Limits on Gravitational Waves from Scorpius X-1 from a Model-Based Cross-Correlation Search in Advanced LIGO Data

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1046

We present the results of a semicoherent search for continuous gravitational waves from the low-mass X-ray binary Scorpius X-1, using data from the first Advanced LIGO observing ru…
