Neutron Star Binary Mergers: The Legacy of GW170817 and Future Prospects
Universe, 2022 In 2015, the Advanced Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO) and Advanced Virgo began observing the Universe in a revolutionary way. Gravitational waves from cosmic sources were detected for the first time, confirming their existence ...

High-vacuum-compatible high-power Faraday isolators for gravitational-wave interferometers [PDF]
, 2012 Faraday isolators play a key role in the operation of large-scale gravitational-wave detectors. Second-generation gravitational-wave interferometers such as the Advanced Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) and Advanced Virgo will ...

Mapping the gravitational wave background [PDF]
, 2001 The gravitational wave sky is expected to have isolated bright sources superimposed on a diffuse gravitational wave background. The background radiation has two components: a confusion limited background from unresolved astrophysical sources; and a ...

Angular instability due to radiation pressure in the LIGO gravitational-wave detector [PDF]
, 2010 We observed the effect of radiation pressure on the angular sensing and control system of the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) interferometer’s core optics at LIGO Hanford Observatory.

Space-borne gravitational wave observatories [PDF]
General Relativity and Gravitation, 2014 The paper describes the progress toward a space-borne gravitational wave observatory and its foreseeable science potential. In particular the paper describes the status of the LISA-like mission called eLISA, the reference mission for the Gravitational Universe theme adopted by ESA for its Large mission L3, and the status of its precursor LISA ...

Gravitational Waves: New Observatories for New Astronomy [PDF]
The Physics Teacher, 2006 This article reviews the current status of gravitational wave astronomy and explains why astronomers are excited about the new generation of gravitational wave detectors. As part of the review we compare and contrast gravitational radiation to the more familiar electromagnetic radiation.

Gravitational Waves from Phase Transition of Accreting Neutron Stars [PDF]
, 1997 We propose that when neutron stars in low-mass X-ray binaries accrete sufficient mass and become millisecond pulsars, the interiors of these stars may undergo phase transitions, which excite stellar radial oscillations.

NANOGrav signal from the end of inflation and the LIGO mass and heavier primordial black holes
Physics Letters B, 2022 Releasing the 12.5-year pulsar timing array data, the North American Nanohertz Observatory for Gravitational Waves (NANOGrav) has recently reported the evidence for a stochastic common-spectrum which would herald the detection of a stochastic ...

GEO600: building a gravitational wave observatory [PDF]
Proceedings of International Europhysics Conference on High Energy Physics — PoS(HEP2005), 2007 An international network of laser-interferometric gravitational wave detectors is nearing the end of the main commissioning phase and will soon enter into an extended observational period, collecting data for a duration of order one year. This article outlines the construction, design and commissioning of the GEO 600 gravitational wave observatory. GEO
