Multisolitons with vector mesons on the two-sphere
(2014)
Recent studies have suggested a strong connection between the static solutions of the 3D Skyrme model and those corresponding to its low-dimensional analog (baby-Skyrme model) on a two-sphere. We have found almost identical ...
Searches for continuous gravitational waves from nine young supernova remnants
(2015)
We describe directed searches for continuous gravitational waves (GWs) in data from the sixth Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO) science data run. The targets were nine young supernova remnants not ...
Multimessenger search for sources of gravitational waves and high-energy neutrinos : results for initial LIGO-Virgo and IceCube
(2014-11-17)
We report the results of a multimessenger search for coincident signals from the LIGO and Virgo gravitational-wave observatories and the partially completed IceCube high-energy neutrino detector, including periods of joint ...
Directed search for gravitational waves from Scorpius X-1 with initial LIGO data
(2015)
We present results of a search for continuously emitted gravitational radiation, directed at the brightest low-mass x-ray binary, Scorpius X-1. Our semicoherent analysis covers 10 days of LIGO S5 data ranging from 50–550 ...
Advanced LIGO
(2015)
The Advanced LIGO gravitational wave detectors are second-generation instruments designed and built for the two LIGO observatories in Hanford, WA and Livingston, LA, USA. The two instruments are identical in design, and ...
