Measurement of the forward Z boson production cross-section in pp collisions at \( \sqrt{s}=7 \) TeV

Roel Aaij, +734 more
TL;DR: In this article, a measurement of the production cross-section for Z bosons that decay to muons is presented, which is in good agreement with theoretical predictions at next to next-to-leading order in perturbative quantum chromodynamics.
Journal ArticleDOI

First measurement of the $CP$-violating phase $\phi_s^{d\overline{d}}$ in $B_s^0\to(K^+\pi^-)(K^-\pi^+)$ decays

Roel Aaij, +834 more
TL;DR: In this article, a flavour-tagged decay-time-dependent amplitude analysis of B$ s − 0 − 0.14 − 1.0 is presented in the K$±}$π$ ∓}$ mass range from 750 to 1600MeV/c$ 2.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of Data Quality Vetoes on a Search for Compact Binary Coalescences in Advanced LIGO's First Observing Run

B. P. Abbott, +954 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the PyCBC pipeline was used to search for gravitational wave signals from compact binary coalescences, and the output of PyCBC was used as a metric for improvement.
Journal ArticleDOI

Supplement: The Rate of Binary Black Hole Mergers Inferred from Advanced LIGO Observations Surrounding GW150914

B. P. Abbott, +1003 more
TL;DR: Details of the method and computations are given, including information about the search pipelines, a derivation of the likelihood function for the analysis, a description of the astrophysical search trigger distribution expected from merging BBHs, details on the computational methods, and an analytic method of estimating the detector sensitivity that is calibrated to the measurements.
Journal ArticleDOI

Upper limits on gravitational wave bursts in LIGO's second science run

B. P. Abbott, +467 more
- 15 Sep 2005 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors performed a search for gravitational wave bursts using data from the second science run of the LIGO detectors, using a method based on a wavelet time-frequency decomposition.
