Journal ArticleDOI

Implementation and testing of the first prompt search for gravitational wave transients with electromagnetic counterparts

J. Abadie, +815 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a low-latency analysis pipeline was used to identify and localize GW event candidates and to request images of targeted sky locations, where a catalog of nearby galaxies and Milky Way globular clusters were used to select the most promising sky positions to be imaged.
Journal ArticleDOI

GROWTH on S190425z: Searching Thousands of Square Degrees to Identify an Optical or Infrared Counterpart to a Binary Neutron Star Merger with the Zwicky Transient Facility and Palomar Gattini-IR

Michael W. Coughlin, +84 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors performed a dedicated follow-up campaign with the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) and Palomar Gattini-IR telescopes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Model Comparison from LIGO-Virgo Data on GW170817's Binary Components and Consequences for the Merger Remnant

B. P. Abbott, +1280 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors perform Bayesian model selection on a wide range of theoretical predictions for the neutron star equation of state, and find that all scenarios from prompt collapse to long-lived or even stable remnants are possible.
Journal ArticleDOI

Einstein@Home all-sky search for periodic gravitational waves in LIGO S5 data

J. Aasi, +888 more
- 13 Feb 2013 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the results of an all-sky search for periodic gravitational waves in the frequency range [50, 1190] Hz and with frequency derivative range of similar to [-20, 1.1] x 10(-10) Hz s(-1) for the fifth LIGO science run (S5) are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Improved Analysis of GW150914 Using a Fully Spin-Precessing Waveform Model

B. P. Abbott, +1001 more
- 21 Oct 2016 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, a 15-dimensional precessing-spin waveform model (precessing EOBNR) was developed within the EOB formalism for GW150914.
