GW150914: The Advanced LIGO Detectors in the Era of First Discoveries

B. P. Abbott, +958 more
TL;DR: Following a major upgrade, the two advanced detectors of the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO) held their first observation run between September 2015 and January 2016, and observed a transient gravitational-wave signal determined to be the coalescence of two black holes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Binary Black Hole Population Properties Inferred from the First and Second Observing Runs of Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo

B. P. Abbott, +1218 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the mass, spin, and redshift distributions of binary black hole (BBH) mergers with LIGO and Advanced Virgo observations were analyzed using phenomenological population models.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tests of General Relativity with GW170817

B. P. Abbott, +1240 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors place constraints on the dipole radiation and possible deviations from GR in the post-Newtonian coefficients that govern the inspiral regime of a binary neutron star inspiral.
Journal ArticleDOI

GW150914: First results from the search for binary black hole coalescence with Advanced LIGO

B. P. Abbott, +980 more
- 07 Jun 2016 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the results of a matched-filter search using relativistic models of compact-object binaries that recovered GW150914 as the most significant event during the coincident observations between the two LIGO detectors were reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

GWTC-1: A Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog of Compact Binary Mergers Observed by LIGO and Virgo during the First and Second Observing Runs

B. P. Abbott, +1148 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented the results from three gravitational-wave searches for coalescing compact binaries with component masses above 1, during the first and second observing runs of the Advanced Gravitational-wave detector network.
