Upper limits on the isotropic gravitational-wave background from Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo’s third observing run

Richard J. Abbott, +1681 more
- 15 Jul 2021 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors report results of a search for an isotropic gravitational-wave background (GWB) using data from Advanced LIGO's and Advanced Virgo's third observing run (O3) combined with upper limits from the earlier O1 and O2 runs.
Journal ArticleDOI

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

TL;DR: In this article, the mass of the dynamical ejecta from binary neutron star mergers was estimated without a direct electromagnetic observation of the kilonova, using a phenomenological model calibrated to numerical simulations.
Journal ArticleDOI

First search for gravitational waves from known pulsars with Advanced LIGO

B. P. Abbott, +999 more
TL;DR: In this article, the results of searches for gravitational waves from 200 pulsars using data from the first observing run of the Advanced LIGO detectors were presented, and they were able to set the most constraining upper limits yet on their gravitational-wave amplitudes and ellipticities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Calibration of the LIGO gravitational wave detectors in the fifth science run

J. Abadie, +554 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the calibration of the instruments in the S5 data set, including measurement techniques and uncertainty estimation, for the LIGO data set of the fifth science run (S5).
Journal ArticleDOI

Parameter estimation for compact binary coalescence signals with the first generation gravitational-wave detector network

J. Aasi, +896 more
- 04 Sep 2013 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, a selection of simulated signals added either in hardware or software to the data collected by the two LIGO instruments and the Virgo detector during their most recent joint science run, including a "blind injection" where the signal was not initially revealed to the collaboration.
