GW190814: Gravitational Waves from the Coalescence of a 23 M Black Hole with a 2.6 M Compact Object

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, R. Abbott +1254

We report the observation of a compact binary coalescence involving a 22.2 - 24.3 black hole and a compact object with a mass of 2.50 - 2.67 (all measuremen…

GW190412: Observation of a Binary-Black-Hole Coalescence with Asymmetric Masses

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, R. Abbott +1254

We report the observation of gravitational waves from a binary-black-hole coalescence during the first two weeks of LIGO's and Virgo's third observing run. The signal was recorded…

Tests of General Relativity with the Binary Black Hole Signals from the LIGO-Virgo Catalog GWTC-1

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1142

The detection of gravitational waves by Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo provides an opportunity to test general relativity in a regime that is inaccessible to traditional astronom…

Search for the isotropic stochastic background using data from Advanced LIGO's second observing run

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1133

The stochastic gravitational-wave background is a superposition of sources that are either too weak or too numerous to detect individually. In this study we present the results fro…
