On the Progenitor of Binary Neutron Star Merger GW170817

B. P. Abbott, +1140 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors derived the first constraints on the progenitor of GW170817 at the time of the second supernova (SN) and found these constraints to be comparable to those for Galactic BNS progenitors.
Journal ArticleDOI

A gravitational-wave measurement of the Hubble constant following the second observing run of Advanced LIGO and Virgo

B. P. Abbott, +1186 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the first and second observing runs of the Advanced LIGO and Virgo detector network were used to obtain the first standard-siren measurement of the Hubble constant.
Journal ArticleDOI

Searches for continuous gravitational waves from nine young supernova remnants

J. Aasi, +889 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe directed searches for continuous gravitational waves in data from the sixth LIGO science data run, where the targets were nine young supernova remnants not associated with pulsars; eight of the remnants are associated with non-pulsing suspected neutron stars.
Journal ArticleDOI

SUPPLEMENT: "LOCALIZATION and BROADBAND FOLLOW-UP of the GRAVITATIONAL-WAVE TRANSIENT GW150914" (2016, ApJL, 826, L13)

B. P. Abbott, +1622 more
TL;DR: Abbott et al. as mentioned in this paper compared the four probability sky maps produced for the gravitational-wave transient GW150914, and provided additional details of the EM follow-up observations that were performed in the different bands.
Journal ArticleDOI

Optically targeted search for gravitational waves emitted by core-collapse supernovae during the first and second observing runs of advanced LIGO and advanced Virgo

B. P. Abbott, +1194 more
- 15 Apr 2020 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the results from a search for gravitational-wave transients associated with core-collapse supernovae observed within a source distance of approximately 20 Mpc during the first and second observing runs of Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo were presented.
