Advanced Virgo: a second-generation interferometric gravitational wave detector
- F. Acernese, M. Agathos, +231 authors J. Zendri
- Physics
- 18 August 2014
Advanced Virgo is the project to upgrade the Virgo interferometric detector of gravitational waves, with the aim of increasing the number of observable galaxies (and thus the detection rate) by three… Expand
Predictions for the rates of compact binary coalescences observable by ground-based gravitational-wave detectors
- L. S. Collaboration, Virgo Collaboration J. Abadie, +708 authors K. Belczynski
- Physics
- 12 March 2010
We present an up-to-date, comprehensive summary of the rates for all types of compact binary coalescence sources detectable by the initial and advanced versions of the ground-based gravitational-wave… Expand
Enhanced sensitivity of the LIGO gravitational wave detector by using squeezed states of light
- J. Aasi, J. Abadie, +657 authors J. Zweizig
- Physics
- 1 July 2013
Nearly a century after Einstein first predicted the existence of gravitational waves, a global network of Earth-based gravitational wave observatories1, 2, 3, 4 is seeking to directly detect this… Expand
Characterization of the LIGO detectors during their sixth science run
- The Ligo Scientific Collaboration, T. V. C. J. Aasi, +867 authors M. Zucker
- Physics

In 2009–2010, the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) operated together with international partners Virgo and GEO600 as a network to search for gravitational waves (GWs) of… Expand
Calibration of the LIGO gravitational wave detectors in the fifth science run
- L. S. C. J. Abadie, B. Abbott, +536 authors J. Zweizig
- Physics
- 22 July 2010
The Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory (LIGO) is a network of three detectors built to detect local perturbations in the space–time metric from astrophysical sources. These… Expand
Search for gravitational-wave inspiral signals associated with short gamma-ray bursts during LIGO'S fifth and Virgo's first science run
- The Ligo Scientific Collaboration, T. V. C. J. Abadie, +664 authors J. Zweizig
- Physics
- 4 January 2010
Progenitor scenarios for short gamma-ray bursts (short GRBs) include coalescenses of two neutron stars or a neutron star and black hole, which would necessarily be accompanied by the emission of… Expand
Search for gravitational waves from low mass compact binary coalescence in 186 days of LIGO's fifth science run

- 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
Search for gravitational-wave bursts associated with gamma-ray bursts using data from LIGO Science Run 5 and Virgo Science Run 1

We present the results of a search for gravitational-wave bursts associated with 137 gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) that were detected by satellite-based gamma-ray experiments during the fifth LIGO science… Expand
Directed search for continuous gravitational waves from the Galactic center
- The Ligo Scientific Collaboration, T. V. C. J. Aasi, +870 authors J. Zweizig
- Physics
- 24 September 2013
We present the results of a directed search for continuous gravitational waves from unknown, isolated neutron stars in the Galactic center region, performed on two years of data from LIGO’s fifth… 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
