Journal ArticleDOI

Limits on gravitational-wave emission from selected pulsars using LIGO data.

B. P. Abbott, +407 more
TL;DR: The unprecedented sensitivity of the detectors allows us to set strain upper limits as low as a few times 10(-24), which translate into limits on the equatorial ellipticities of the pulsars, which are smaller than 10(-5) for the four closest pulsars.
Journal ArticleDOI

Calibration of the LIGO gravitational wave detectors in the fifth science run

J. Abadie, +554 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the calibration of the instruments in the S5 data set, including measurement techniques and uncertainty estimation, for the LIGO data set of the fifth science run (S5).
Journal ArticleDOI

Observation of squeezed states with strong photon-number oscillations

TL;DR: In this article, the authors report on the observation of 11.5 dB of squeezing, together with relatively high state purity corresponding to a vacuum contribution of less than 5%, and a squeezing bandwidth of about 170 MHz.
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

Status of the GEO600 detector

Harald Lück, +101 more
TL;DR: The German/British project GEO600 achieved an instrumental duty cycle of 97% with a peak sensitivity of 7 × 10−22 Hz−1/2 at 1 kHz.
