An upper limit on the stochastic gravitational-wave background of cosmological origin
- B. P. Abbott, R. Abbott, +497 authors J. Rollins
- Physics, Medicine
- Nature
- 20 August 2009
A stochastic background of gravitational waves is expected to arise from a superposition of a large number of unresolved gravitational-wave sources of astrophysical and cosmological origin. It should… Expand
Observing gravitational-wave transient GW150914 with minimal assumptions
- B. P. Abbott, G. Cagnoli, +56 authors F. Bondu
- Physics
- 7 June 2016
The gravitational-wave signal GW150914 was first identified on Sept 14 2015 by searches for short-duration gravitational-wave transients. These searches identify time-correlated transients in… Expand
Searches for periodic gravitational waves from unknown isolated sources and Scorpius X-1: Results from the second LIGO science run
- B. P. Abbott, R. Abbott, +475 authors J. Zweizig
- Physics
- 25 April 2006
We carry out two searches for periodic gravitational waves using the most sensitive few hours of data from the second LIGO science run. Both searches exploit fully coherent matched filtering and… Expand
All-sky LIGO search for periodic gravitational waves in the early fifth-science-run data.
- B. P. Abbott, R. Abbott, +462 authors J. Zweizig
- Medicine, Physics
- Physical review letters
- 1 March 2009
We report on an all-sky search with the LIGO detectors for periodic gravitational waves in the frequency range 50-1100 Hz and with the frequency's time derivative in the range -5 x 10{-9}-0 Hz s{-1}.… Expand
Search for gravitational waves from low mass compact binary coalescence in 186 days of LIGO's fifth science run
- B. P. Abbott, R. Abbott, +502 authors J. Zweizig
- Physics
- 1 August 2009
We report on a search for gravitational waves from coalescing compact binaries, of total mass between 2 and 35M⊙, using LIGO observations between November 14, 2006 and May 18, 2007. No… Expand
Observation of a kilogram-scale oscillator near its quantum ground state
- B. P. Abbott, R. Abbott, +440 authors J. Zweizig
- Physics
- 16 July 2009
We introduce a novel cooling technique capable of approaching the quantum ground state of a kilogram-scale system—an interferometric gravitational wave detector. The detectors of the Laser… Expand
All-sky search for periodic gravitational waves in LIGO S4 data
- B. P. Abbott, R. Abbott, +440 authors J. Zweizig
- Physics
- 10 January 2008
We report on an all-sky search with the LIGO detectors for periodic gravitational waves in the frequency range 50–1000 Hz and with the frequency’s time derivative in the range −1×10^(−8) Hz s^(−1)… Expand
Search for gravitational waves associated with 39 gamma-ray bursts using data from the second, third, and fourth LIGO runs
- B. P. Abbott, R. Abbott, +474 authors J. Zweizig
- Physics
- 17 March 2008
We present the results of a search for short-duration gravitational-wave bursts associated with 39 gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) detected by gamma-ray satellite experiments during LIGO’s S2, S3, and S4… Expand
Search for gravitational-wave bursts in LIGO's third science run
- B. P. Abbott, R. Abbott, +252 authors P. Sutton
- Physics
- 21 April 2006
We report on a search for gravitational-wave bursts in data from the three LIGO interferometric detectors during their third science run. The search targets sub-second bursts in the frequency range… Expand
Einstein@Home search for periodic gravitational waves in early S5 LIGO data
- B. P. Abbott, R. Abbott, +501 authors D. Anderson
- Physics
- 11 August 2009
This paper reports on an all-sky search for periodic gravitational waves from sources such as deformed
isolated rapidly spinning neutron stars. The analysis uses 840 hours of data from 66 days of… Expand
