Searches for continuous-wave gravitational radiation [PDF]

open access: yesLiving Reviews in Relativity, 2023
Now that detection of gravitational-wave signals from the coalescence of extra-galactic compact binary star mergers has become nearly routine, it is intriguing to consider other potential gravitational-wave signatures.

The First Detection of Gravitational Waves

open access: yesUniverse, 2017
This article deals with the first detection of gravitational waves by the advanced Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory (LIGO) detectors on 14 September 2015, where the signal was generated by two stellar mass black holes with masses 36

Dropping Anchor: Understanding the Populations of Binary Black Holes with Random and Aligned-spin Orientations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The relative spin orientations of black holes (BHs) in binaries encode their evolutionary history: BHs assembled dynamically should have isotropically distributed spins, while spins of BHs originating in the field should be aligned with the orbital ...

Waltzing Binaries: Probing the Line-of-sight Acceleration of Merging Compact Objects with Gravitational Waves

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The line-of-sight acceleration of a compact binary coalescence (CBC) event would modulate the shape of the gravitational waves (GWs) it produces with respect to the corresponding nonaccelerated CBC.

Mapping the gravitational wave background [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 ...

Multimessenger Probes of High-energy Sources [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2019
Multimessenger observations may hold the key to learn about the most energetic sources in the universe. The recent construction of large scale observatories opened new possibilities in testing non thermal cosmic processes with alternative probes, such as

Gravitational wave sources: An overview [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
With full-sensitivity operation of the first generation of gravitational wave detectors now just around the corner, and with the LISA space-based detector entering its final design stage, I review the wide variety of predicted sources from the ...

A First Comparison of SLOPE and Other LIGO Burst Event Trigger Generators [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
A number of different methods have been proposed to identify unanticipated burst sources of gravitational waves in data arising from LIGO and other gravitational wave detectors.

Measuring the Hubble Constant with Dark Neutron Star–Black Hole Mergers

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Detection of gravitational waves (GWs) from neutron star-black hole (NSBH) standard sirens provides local measurements of the Hubble constant ( H _0 ), regardless of the detection of an electromagnetic (EM) counterpart, given that matter effects can be ...
