Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of the LIGO detectors during their sixth science run

J. Aasi, +887 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review the performance of the LIGO instruments during this epoch, the work done to characterize the detectors and their data, and the effect that transient and continuous noise artefacts have on the sensitivity of the detectors to a variety of astrophysical sources.
Journal ArticleDOI

Enhanced sensitivity of the LIGO gravitational wave detector by using squeezed states of light

J. Aasi, +748 more
- 01 Aug 2013 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors inject squeezed states to improve the performance of one of the detectors of the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) beyond the quantum noise limit, most notably in the frequency region down to 150 Hz.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gravitational waves from known pulsars: Results from the initial detector era

J. Aasi, +906 more
TL;DR: The results of searches for gravitational waves from a large selection of pulsars using data from the most recent science runs (S6, VSR2 and VSR4) of the initial generation of interferometric gravitational wave detectors LIGO (Laser Interferometric Gravitational-wave Observatory) and Virgo as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Parameter estimation for compact binary coalescence signals with the first generation gravitational-wave detector network

J. Aasi, +896 more
- 04 Sep 2013 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, a selection of simulated signals added either in hardware or software to the data collected by the two LIGO instruments and the Virgo detector during their most recent joint science run, including a "blind injection" where the signal was not initially revealed to the collaboration.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gravitational waves from known pulsars: results from the initial detector era

J. Aasi, +894 more
TL;DR: The results of searches for gravitational waves from a large selection of pulsars using data from the most recent science runs (S6, VSR2 and VSR4) of the initial generation of interferometric gravitational wave detectors LIGO (Laser Interferometric Gravitational-wave Observatory) and Virgo as mentioned in this paper.
