Aasi, J.; Abbott, B. P.; Abbott, R.; Abbott, T.; Abernathy, M. R.; Acernese, F.; Ackley, K.; Adams, C.; Adams, T.; Addesso, P.; Adhikari, R. X.Made available in DSpace on 2022-04-29T07:14:58Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2014-05-27; We report results from a search for gravitational waves produced by perturbed intermediate mass black holes (IMBH) in data collected by LIGO and Virgo between 2005 and 2010. The search was sensitive to astrophysical sources that produced damped sinusoid gravitational wave signals, also known as ringdown...

No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2014-06-12; This paper reports on an unmodeled, all-sky search for gravitational waves from merging intermediate mass black hole binaries (IMBHB). The search was performed on data from the second joint science run of the LIGO and Virgo detectors (July 2009-October 2010) and was sensitive to IMBHBs with a range up t...

No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2014-06-25; In this paper we report on a search for short-duration gravitational wave bursts in the frequency range 64 Hz-1792 Hz associated with gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), using data from GEO 600 and one of the LIGO or Virgo detectors. We introduce the method of a linear search grid to analyze GRB events with large ...

No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2014-12-02; Gravitational waves from a variety of sources are predicted to superpose to create a stochastic background. This background is expected to contain unique information from throughout the history of the Universe that is unavailable through standard electromagnetic observations, making its study of fundame...
Antigenotoxicity of Ginkgo biloba extract in colonocytes
Oliveira, Daniela; Cadilhe, L.; Latimer, C.; Parpot, Pier; Gill, C.; Oliveira, Rui Pedro Soares dePlants have been used over centuries in traditional medicine for the treatment of human diseases. In the last decades the interest in medicinal plants has increased significantly owing to the antioxidant effect found in their natural extracts which is responsible for many therapeutic effects. The Ginkgo biloba leaf extract (GBE), widely used in traditional Chinese medicine, is nowadays intensively studied and s...
