Low-Latency Gravitational Wave Alerts for Multi-Messenger Astronomy During the Second Advanced LIGO and Virgo Observing Run

B. P. Abbott, +1135 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the online identification of gravitational-wave transients and the distribution of gravitationalwave alerts by the LIGO and Virgo collaborations during O2, and also describe the gravitationalwave observables which were sent in the alerts to enable searches for their counterparts.
Journal ArticleDOI

Search for Gravitational Waves Associated with Gamma-Ray Bursts During the First Advanced LIGO Observing Run and Implications for the Origin of GRB 150906B

B. P. Abbott, +998 more
TL;DR: The results of the search for gravitational waves (GWs) associated with gamma-ray bursts detected during the first observing run of the Advanced Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) are presented in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI

Upper Limits on Gravitational Waves from Scorpius X-1 from a Model-Based Cross-Correlation Search in Advanced LIGO Data

B. P. Abbott, +1078 more
TL;DR: In this article, a semicoherent search for continuous gravitational waves from the low-mass X-ray binary Scorpius X-1, using data from the first Advanced LIGO observing run, was conducted over the frequency range 25-2000\,\mathrm{Hz}, spanning the current observationally constrained range of binary orbital parameters.
Journal ArticleDOI

Search for gravitational wave ringdowns from perturbed black holes in LIGO S4 data

B. P. Abbott, +510 more
- 09 Sep 2009 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a search for gravitational waves from black hole ringdown in the fourth LIGO science run S4, during which the dominant mode of perturbed black holes with masses in the range of 10M to 500M⊙, the regime of intermediate-mass black holes to distances up to 300 Mpc.

Sensitivity Achieved by the LIGO and Virgo Gravitational Wave Detectors during LIGO's Sixth and Virgo's Second and Third Science Runs

J. Abadie, +797 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors summarize the sensitivity achieved by the LIGO and Virgo detectors for low-mass compact binary coalescence (CBC) searches during the LigO's sixth science run and the Virgo's second and third science runs.
