Implementation of an F-statistic all-sky search for continuous gravitational waves in Virgo VSR1 data
(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 ...
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 ...
First all-sky search for continuous gravitational waves from unknown sources in binary systems
(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 ...
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 ...
Search for gravitational waves associated with gamma-ray bursts detected by the InterPlanetary Network
(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, ...
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 ...
Methods and results of a search for gravitational waves associated with gamma-ray bursts using the GEO 600, LIGO, and Virgo detectors
(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. ...
