Searches for gravitational waves from known pulsars with science run 5 LIGO data

B. P. Abbott, +705 more
TL;DR: In this article, an updated search for gravitational waves from 116 known millisecond and young pulsars using data from the fifth science run of the LIGO detectors was presented, where ephemerides overlapping the run period were obtained using radio and X-ray observations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Search for gravitational waves from binary inspirals in S3 and S4 LIGO data

B. P. Abbott, +463 more
- 07 Mar 2008 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, a search for gravitational waves from the coalescence of compact binary systems during the third and fourth LIGO science runs was reported, which focused on gravitational waves generated during the inspiral phase of the binary evolution.
Journal ArticleDOI

Observation of a kilogram-scale oscillator near its quantum ground state

B. P. Abbott, +454 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the resonant frequency of a 2.7 kg pendulum mode was dynamically shifted to lie within this optimal band, where its effective temperature falls as low as 1.4 μK and its occupation number reaches about 200 quanta.
Journal ArticleDOI

A gravitational-wave measurement of the Hubble constant following the second observing run of Advanced LIGO and Virgo

B. P. Abbott, +1276 more
TL;DR: In this article, the first and second observing runs of the Advanced LIGO and Virgo detector network were used to obtain the first standard-siren measurement of the Hubble constant (H 0).
Journal ArticleDOI

Gravitational waves from known pulsars: Results from the initial detector era

J. Aasi, +906 more
TL;DR: The results of searches for gravitational waves from a large selection of pulsars using data from the most recent science runs (S6, VSR2 and VSR4) of the initial generation of interferometric gravitational wave detectors LIGO (Laser Interferometric Gravitational-wave Observatory) and Virgo as discussed by the authors.
