Upper Limits on the Rates of Binary Neutron Star and Neutron Star-Black Hole Mergers from Advanced LIGO’s First Observing Run

B. P. Abbott, +981 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported that the non-detection of gravitational waves from the merger of binary-neutron star systems and neutron star-black hole systems during the first observing run of the Advanced Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO).
Journal ArticleDOI

GW170817: Implications for the Stochastic Gravitational-Wave Background from Compact Binary Coalescences

B. P. Abbott, +1144 more
TL;DR: The total background may be detectable with a signal-to-noise-ratio of 3 after 40 months of total observation time, based on the expected timeline for Advanced LIGO and Virgo to reach their design sensitivity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Estimating the Contribution of Dynamical Ejecta in the Kilonova Associated with GW170817

B. P. Abbott, +1144 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the mass of the dynamical ejecta can be estimated without a direct electromagnetic observation of the kilonova, using GW measurements and a phenomenological model calibrated to numerical simulations of mergers with dynamical ejecteda.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sensitivity and performance of the Advanced LIGO detectors in the third observing run

Aaron Buikema, +208 more
- 15 Sep 2020 - 
TL;DR: In 2019, the Advanced Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (aLIGO), joined by the Advanced Virgo detector, began the third observing run, a year-long dedicated search for gravitational radiation as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Search for High-energy Neutrinos from Binary Neutron Star Merger GW170817 with ANTARES, IceCube, and the Pierre Auger Observatory

Arnauld Albert, +1990 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors search for high-energy neutrinos from the binary neutron star merger in the GeV-EeV energy range using the Antares, IceCube, and Pierre Auger Observatories.
