Predictions for the rates of compact binary coalescences observable by ground-based gravitational-wave detectors

J. Abadie, +722 more
TL;DR: In this paper, Kalogera et al. presented an up-to-date 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 detectors LIGO and Virgo.

Predictions for the Rates of Compact Binary Coalescences Observable by Ground-based Gravitational-wave Detectors

J. Abadie, +709 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an up-to-date summary of the rates for all types of compact binary coalescence sources detectable by the Initial and Advanced versions of the ground-based LIGO and Virgo Astrophysical estimates for compact-binary coalescence rates depend on a number of assumptions and unknown model parameters.
Journal ArticleDOI

A gravitational wave observatory operating beyond the quantum shot-noise limit

J. Abadie, +614 more
- 11 Sep 2011 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate the squeezed-light enhancement of GEO600, which will be the GW observatory operated by the LIGO Scientific Collaboration in its search for GWs for the next 3-4 years.
Journal ArticleDOI

Positron Production in Multiphoton Light-by-Light Scattering

TL;DR: In this article, the positrons are interpreted as arising from a two-step process in which laser photons are backscattered to GeV energies by the electron beam followed by a collision between the high-energy photon and several laser photons to produce an electron-positron pair.
