GW170104: Observation of a 50-Solar-Mass Binary Black Hole Coalescence at Redshift 0.2

B. P. Abbott, +1065 more
TL;DR: The magnitude of modifications to the gravitational-wave dispersion relation is constrain, the graviton mass is bound to m_{g}≤7.7×10^{-23} eV/c^{2} and null tests of general relativity are performed, finding that GW170104 is consistent with general relativity.
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
- 04 Sep 2019 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented the results from three gravitational-wave searches for coalescing compact binaries with component masses above 1 Ma during the first and second observing runs of the advanced GW detector network.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI

Detector description and performance for the first coincidence observations between LIGO and GEO

B. P. Abbott, +423 more
TL;DR: For 17 days in August and September 2002, the LIGO and GEO interferometer gravitational wave detectors were operated in coincidence to produce their first data for scientific analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Setting upper limits on the strength of periodic gravitational waves from PSR J1939+2134 using the first science data from the GEO 600 and LIGO detectors

B. P. Abbott, +376 more
- 15 Apr 2004 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a model emission mechanism is used to interpret the limits as a constraint on the pulsar's equatorial ellipticity, and two independent analysis methods are used and are demonstrated in two independent methods: a frequency domain method and a time domain method.
