Search for gravitational waves from low mass compact binary coalescence in 186 days of LIGO's fifth science run

B. P. Abbott, +512 more
- 25 Aug 2009 - 
TL;DR: The LIGO cumulative 90%-confidence rate upper limits of the binary coalescence of neutron stars, black holes, and black hole-neutron star systems are 1.4×10-2, 7.3 × 10-4 and 3.6×10 −3.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of waveform model systematics on the interpretation of GW150914

B. P. Abbott, +1033 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of possible systematic errors in the waveform models on estimates of its source parameters were investigated and no evidence for a systematic bias relative to the statistical error of the original parameter recovery of GW150914 due to modeling approximations or modeling inaccuracies was found.
Journal ArticleDOI

Searches for new physics using the tt̄ invariant mass distribution in pp collisions at √s=8 TeV

S. Chatrchyan, +2207 more
TL;DR: In this paper, anomalous top quark-antiquark production is studied based on pp collisions at 8 TeV. The observed ttbar invariant mass spectrum is found to be compatible with the standard model prediction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Search for Subsolar-Mass Ultracompact Binaries in Advanced LIGO’s First Observing Run

B. P. Abbott, +1260 more
TL;DR: The null result constrains the coalescence rate of monochromatic (delta function) distributions of nonspinning in primordial black hole binary formation scenario and strengthens the presently placed bounds from microlensing surveys of massive compact halo objects (MACHOs) provided by the MACHO and EROS Collaborations.
Journal ArticleDOI

First Search for Gravitational Waves from the Youngest Known Neutron Star

J. Abadie, +547 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a search for periodic gravitational waves from the neutron star in the supernova remnant Cassiopeia A. The search coherently analyzes data in a 12 day interval taken from the fifth science run of the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory.
