Journal ArticleDOI

Identification and mitigation of narrow spectral artifacts that degrade searches for persistent gravitational waves in the first two observing runs of Advanced LIGO

P. B. Covas, +262 more
- 22 Jan 2018 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, a variety of methods used for finding, identifying and mitigating these artifacts, illustrated with particular examples, are described in the form of lists of line artifacts that can safely be treated as non-astrophysical.
Journal ArticleDOI

Search for Subsolar-Mass Ultracompact Binaries in Advanced LIGO’s First Observing Run

B. P. Abbott, +1260 more
TL;DR: The null result constrains the coalescence rate of monochromatic (delta function) distributions of nonspinning in primordial black hole binary formation scenario and strengthens the presently placed bounds from microlensing surveys of massive compact halo objects (MACHOs) provided by the MACHO and EROS Collaborations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gravitational waves from known pulsars: results from the initial detector era

J. Aasi, +894 more
TL;DR: The results of searches for gravitational waves from a large selection of pulsars using data from the most recent science runs (S6, VSR2 and VSR4) of the initial generation of interferometric gravitational wave detectors LIGO (Laser Interferometric Gravitational-wave Observatory) and Virgo as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

All-sky search for gravitational-wave bursts in the second joint LIGO-Virgo run

J. Abadie, +878 more
- 20 Jun 2012 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented results from a search for gravitational-wave bursts in the data collected by the LIGO and Virgo detectors between July 7, 2009 and October 20, 2010.
Journal ArticleDOI

Einstein@Home search for periodic gravitational waves in LIGO S4 data

B. P. Abbott, +457 more
- 20 Jan 2009 - 
TL;DR: A search for periodic gravitational waves from sources such as isolated rapidly spinning neutron stars was carried out using 510 h of data from the fourth LIGO science run (S4).
