Journal ArticleDOI

Prospects for Observing and Localizing Gravitational-Wave Transients with Advanced LIGO, Advanced Virgo and KAGRA

B. P. Abbott, +1318 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the current best estimate of the plausible observing scenarios for the Advanced LIGO, Advanced Virgo and KAGRA detectors over the next several years, with the intention of providing information to facilitate planning for multi-messenger astronomy with gravitational waves.
Journal ArticleDOI

Properties of the binary neutron star merger GW170817

B. P. Abbott, +1146 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors improved initial estimates of the binary's properties, including component masses, spins, and tidal parameters, using the known source location, improved modeling, and recalibrated Virgo data.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tests of general relativity with the binary black hole signals from the LIGO-Virgo catalog GWTC-1

B. P. Abbott, +1141 more
- 20 Nov 2019 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present four tests of the consistency of the data with binary black hole gravitational waveforms predicted by general relativity, including the best-fit waveform from the data and the consistency with detector noise.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Rate of Binary Black Hole Mergers Inferred from Advanced LIGO Observations Surrounding GW150914

B. P. Abbott, +961 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report on the constraints these observations place on the rate of binary black hole coalescences, and estimate a 90% credible range of merger rates between $2$--$53 \, \mathrm{Gpc}^{-3} \mathm{yr}^{ −1}$ (comoving frame).
Journal ArticleDOI

Properties and astrophysical implications of the 150 Msun binary black hole merger GW190521.

R. Abbott, +1254 more
TL;DR: The GW190521 signal as mentioned in this paper is consistent with a binary black hole merger source at redshift 0.8 with unusually high component masses, and shows mild evidence for spin-induced orbital precession.
