Predictions for the rates of compact binary coalescences observable by ground-based gravitational-wave detectors

J. Abadie, +722 more
TL;DR: In this paper, Kalogera et al. presented an up-to-date summary of the rates for all types of compact binary coalescence sources detectable by the initial and advanced versions of the ground-based gravitational-wave detectors LIGO and Virgo.

Laser Interferometer Space Antenna

TL;DR: The LISA Consortium as mentioned in this paper proposed a 4-year mission in response to ESA's call for missions for L3, which is an all-sky monitor and will offer a wide view of a dynamic cosmos using Gravitational Waves as new and unique messengers to unveil The Gravitational Universe.
Journal ArticleDOI

Predictions for the Rates of Compact Binary Coalescences Observable by Ground-based Gravitational-wave Detectors

J. Abadie, +709 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an up-to-date summary of the rates for all types of compact binary coalescence sources detectable by the Initial and Advanced versions of the ground-based LIGO and Virgo Astrophysical estimates for compact-binary coalescence rates depend on a number of assumptions and unknown model parameters.
Journal ArticleDOI

A gravitational wave observatory operating beyond the quantum shot-noise limit

J. Abadie, +614 more
- 11 Sep 2011 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate the squeezed-light enhancement of GEO600, which will be the GW observatory operated by the LIGO Scientific Collaboration in its search for GWs for the next 3-4 years.
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.
