TL;DR: The transient noise backgrounds used to determine the significance of the event (designated GW150914) are described and the results of investigations into potential correlated or uncorrelated sources of transient noise in the detectors around the time of theevent are presented.

TL;DR: In this article, the sky localization of the first observed compact binary merger is presented, where the authors describe the low-latency analysis of the LIGO data and present a sky localization map.

TL;DR: This work performs a search for the isotropic stochastic gravitational-wave background using data from Advanced Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory's (aLIGO) first observing run, and constrain the dimensionless energy density of gravitational waves to be Ω_{0}<1.7×10^{-7} with 95% confidence.

TL;DR: In this article, a cross-correlation analysis on the data from Advanced LIGO's second observing run (O2) is presented, which combines with the results of the first observing run, and upper limits on the normalized energy density in gravitational waves at the 95% credible level of ΩGW < 6.0 × 10−8 at 25 Hz for a background of compact binary coalescences.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented a search for GWs from the remnant of the binary neutron star merger GW170817 using data from Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo.
