Journal ArticleDOI

Observation of Gravitational Waves from a Binary Black Hole Merger

B. P. Abbott, +1011 more
TL;DR: This is the first direct detection of gravitational waves and the first observation of a binary black hole merger, and these observations demonstrate the existence of binary stellar-mass black hole systems.
Journal ArticleDOI

GW170817: observation of gravitational waves from a binary neutron star inspiral

B. P. Abbott, +1134 more
TL;DR: The association of GRB 170817A, detected by Fermi-GBM 1.7 s after the coalescence, corroborates the hypothesis of a neutron star merger and provides the first direct evidence of a link between these mergers and short γ-ray bursts.
Journal ArticleDOI

GW151226: observation of gravitational waves from a 22-solar-mass binary black hole coalescence

B. P. Abbott, +973 more
TL;DR: This second gravitational-wave observation provides improved constraints on stellar populations and on deviations from general relativity.
Journal ArticleDOI

GW170814: A three-detector observation of gravitational waves from a binary black hole coalescence

B. P. Abbott, +1116 more
TL;DR: For the first time, the nature of gravitational-wave polarizations from the antenna response of the LIGO-Virgo network is tested, thus enabling a new class of phenomenological tests of gravity.
Journal ArticleDOI

GW170817: Measurements of Neutron Star Radii and Equation of State.

B. P. Abbott, +1238 more
TL;DR: This analysis expands upon previous analyses by working under the hypothesis that both bodies were neutron stars that are described by the same equation of state and have spins within the range observed in Galactic binary neutron stars.
