TL;DR: In this paper, the authors performed a search for bursts of gravitational waves associated with the very bright gamma ray burst GRB030329, using the two detectors at the LIGO Hanford Observatory.

TL;DR: In this paper, an all-sky search for periodic gravitational waves from sources such as deformed and rapidly spinning neutron stars was performed using 840 hours of data from 66 days of the fifth LIGO science run (S5).

TL;DR: In this paper, a search for gravitational waves from binary black hole inspirals in the data from the second science run of the LIGO interferometers was reported. But no events that could be identified as gravitational waves in the 385.6 hours of data that they searched.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present results from a search for gravitational-wave bursts coincident with a set of two core-collapse supernovae observed between 2007 and 2011, and present the probability of detecting signals from both astrophysically well-motivated and more speculative gravitational wave emission mechanisms as a function of distance from Earth.

TL;DR: The Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory has performed a third science run with much improved sensitivities of all three interferometers, and upper bounds on the energy density stored as gravitational radiation for three different spectral power laws are placed.
