GW170814: A Three-Detector Observation of Gravitational Waves from a Binary Black Hole Coalescence
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1107
On August 14, 2017 at 10:30:43 UTC, the Advanced Virgo detector and the two Advanced LIGO detectors coherently observed a transient gravitational-wave signal produced by the coales…
GW170817: Implications for the Stochastic Gravitational-Wave Background from Compact Binary Coalescences
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1099
The LIGO Scientific and Virgo Collaborations have announced the first detection of gravitational waves from the coalescence of two neutron stars. The merger rate of binary neutron…
Excitation of high frequency voices from intermediate-mass-ratio inspirals with large eccentricity
Wen-Biao Han, Zhoujian Cao, Yi-Ming Hu
The coalescence of a stellar-mass compact object together with an intermediate-mass black hole, also known as intermediate-mass-ratio inspiral, is usually not expected to be a viab…
Systematic errors in estimation of gravitational-wave candidate significance
Collin Capano, Thomas Dent, Chad Hanna +4
The statistical significance of a candidate gravitational-wave (GW) event is crucial to the prospects for a confirmed detection, or for its selection as a candidate for follow-up e…
Hearing the birth of the lightest intermediate mass black holes with the second generation gravitational wave detectors
Yun-Feng Liang, Yuan-Zhu Wang, Hao Wang +6
Intermediate mass black holes (IMBHs) with a mass between and times that of the sun, which bridges the {mass gap between the} stellar-mass black holes and the sup…
