GW190521: A Binary Black Hole Merger with a Total Mass of

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, R. Abbott +1253

On May 21, 2019 at 03:02:29 UTC Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo observed a short duration gravitational-wave signal, GW190521, with a three-detector network signal-to-noise ratio…

Measuring Spin of the Remnant Black Hole from Maximum Amplitude

Deborah Ferguson, Sudarshan Ghonge, James A. Clark +3

Gravitational waves emitted during the merger of two black holes carry information about the remnant black hole, namely its mass and spin. This information is typically found from…

Search for sub-solar mass ultracompact binaries in Advanced LIGO's first observing run

B. P. Abbott, R. Abbott, T. D. Abbott +1135

We present the first Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo search for ultracompact binary systems with component masses between 0.2 - 1.0 using data taken between Se…

Tracking black hole kicks from gravitational wave observations

Juan Calderón Bustillo, James A. Clark, Pablo Laguna +1

Coalescing binary black holes emit anisotropic gravitational radiation. This causes a net emission of linear momentum that produces a gradual acceleration of the source. As a resul…

A Search for Tensor, Vector, and Scalar Polarizations in the Stochastic Gravitational-Wave Background

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1097

The detection of gravitational waves with Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo has enabled novel tests of general relativity, including direct study of the polarization of gravitationa…
