    • Advanced LIGO 

      Aasi, J.; Abbott, B. P.; Abbott, R.; Abbott, T.; Abernathy, M. R.; Ackley, K.; Domínguez, Alfredo Eduardo; Maglione, César Germán; Ortega Larcher, Walter Emanuel; Quiroga, Gonzalo Damián; Reula, Oscar Alejandro (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 ...
    • Directed search for gravitational waves from Scorpius X-1 with initial LIGO data 

      Aasi, J.; Abbott, B. P.; Abbott, R.; Abbott, T.; Abernathy, M. R.; Acernese, F.; Domínguez, Alfredo Eduardo; Maglione, César Germán; Ortega Larcher, Walter Emanuel; Quiroga, Gonzalo Damián; Reula, Oscar Alejandro (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 ...
    • First all-sky search for continuous gravitational waves from unknown sources in binary systems 

      LIGO Scientific Collaboration; Virgo Collaboration; Maglione, C.; Quiroga, C.; Aasi, J. (2014)
      We present the first results of an all-sky search for continuous gravitational waves from unknown spinning neutron stars in binary systems using LIGO and Virgo data. Using a specially developed analysis program, the ...
    • Implementation of an F-statistic all-sky search for continuous gravitational waves in Virgo VSR1 data 

      Aasi, J.; Maglione, César Germán; Quiroga, G. (2014)
      We present an implementation of the F -statistic to carry out the first search in data from the Virgo laser interferometric gravitational wave detector for periodic gravitational waves from a priori unknown, isolated ...
    • Methods and results of a search for gravitational waves associated with gamma-ray bursts using the GEO 600, LIGO, and Virgo detectors 

      LIGO Scientific Collaboration; Virgo Collaboration; Aasi, J.; Maglione, C.; Reula, O.; Dominguez, E.; Ortega, W.; Schilman, M.; Wolovick, N. (2014)
      In this paper we report on a search for short-duration gravitational wave bursts in the frequency range 64 Hz–1792 Hz associated with gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), using data from GEO 600 and one of the LIGO or Virgo detectors. ...
    • Multimessenger search for sources of gravitational waves and high-energy neutrinos : results for initial LIGO-Virgo and IceCube 

      Aartsen, M. G.; Ackermann, M.; Adams, J.; Aguilar, J. A.; Ahlers, M.; Ahrens, M.; Maglione, César Germán; Reula, Oscar Alejandro; Schilman, Mauro; Wolovick, Nicolás; Domínguez, Alfredo Eduardo (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 ...
    • Search for gravitational waves associated with gamma-ray bursts detected by the InterPlanetary Network 

      Aasi, J.; Domínguez, E.; Maglione, C.; Ortega, W.; Reula, O.; Wolovick, N.; LIGO Scientific Collaboration; Virgo Collaboration (2014)
      We present the results of a search for gravitational waves associated with 223 γ-ray bursts (GRBs) detected by the InterPlanetary Network (IPN) in 2005-2010 during LIGO´s fifth and sixth science runs and Virgo´s first, ...
    • Searches for continuous gravitational waves from nine young supernova remnants 

      Aasi, J.; Abbott, P.; Abbott, R.; Abbott, T.; Abernathy, M. R.; Acernese, F.; Domínguez, Alfredo Eduardo; Maglione, César Germán; Ortega Larcher, Walter Emanuel; Quiroga, Gonzalo Damián; Reula, Oscar Alejandro (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 ...
