Pre-merger Localization of Compact-binary Mergers with Third-generation Observatories
We present the prospects for the pre-merger detection and localization of binary neutron star mergers with third-generation gravitational-wave (GW) observatories. We consider a wide variety of GW networks that may…
Constraints on cosmic strings using data from the third Advanced LIGO-Virgo observing run
Abstract: (APS) We search for gravitational-wave signals produced by cosmic strings in the Advanced LIGO and Virgo full O3 dataset. Search results are presented for gravitational waves produced by cosmic…
First demonstration of early warning gravitational wave alerts
Gravitational-wave observations became commonplace in Advanced LIGO-Virgo’s recently concluded third observing run. 56 nonretracted candidates were identified and publicly announced in near real time. Gravitational waves from binary neutron star…
GWTC-2: Compact Binary Coalescences Observed by LIGO and Virgo During the First Half of the Third Observing Run
https://in2p3.cnrs.fr/fr/cnrsinfo/nouvelle-edition-du-catalogue-ligo-virgo-suite-run-o3 Science summary Scientific publication: GWTC-2: Compact Binary Coalescences Observed by LIGO and Virgo During the First Half of the Third Observing Run
GRANDMA observations of advanced LIGO’s and advanced Virgo’s third observational campaign
Abstract: (Oxford University Press) GRANDMA (Global Rapid Advanced Network Devoted to the Multi-messenger Addicts) is a network of 25 telescopes of different sizes, including both photometric and spectroscopic facilities. The…
Gravitational-wave Merger Forecasting: Scenarios for the Early Detection and Localization of Compact-binary Mergers with Ground-based Observatories
Abstract: (IOP) We present the prospects for the early (pre-merger) detection and localization of compact-binary coalescences using gravitational waves over the next 10 yr. Early warning can enable the direct…
GW190521: A Binary Black Hole Merger with a Total Mass of 150 M⊙
Abstract: (APS) On May 21, 2019 at 03:02:29 UTC Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo observed a short duration gravitational-wave signal, GW190521, with a three-detector network signal-to-noise ratio of 14.7, and…
Realtime search for compact binary mergers in Advanced LIGO and Virgo’s third observing run using PyCBC Live
Abstract: (arXiv) The third observing run of Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo took place between April 2019 and March 2020 and resulted in dozens of gravitational-wave candidates, many of which…
Omicron: a tool to characterize transient noise in gravitational-wave detectors
The Omicron software is a tool developed to perform a multi-resolution time-frequency analysis of data from gravitational-wave detectors: the LIGO, Virgo, and KAGRA detectors. Omicron generates spectrograms from whitened data…
