Abbott, B. P.; Abbott, R.; Abbott, T. D.; Abernathy, M. R.; Acernese, F.; Ackley, K.; Adams, C.; Adams, T.; Addesso, P.; Adhikari, R. X.; Adya, V. B.Made available in DSpace on 2022-04-29T08:04:00Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2017-04-01; Albert Einstein's general theory of relativity, first published a century ago, was described by physicist Max Born as the greatest feat of human thinking about nature.We report on two major scientific breakthroughs involving key predictions of Einstein's theory: the first direct detection of gravitation...

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 2022-04-29T07:17:23Z (GMT). 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: 2014-06-30; National Science Foundation; We present the results of a search for gravitational waves associated with 223 γ-ray bursts (GRBs) detected by the InterPlanetary Network (IPN) in 2005-2010 during LIGO's fifth and sixth science runs and Virgo's first, second, and third science runs. The IPN satellites provi...

No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2014-11-17; We report the results of a multimessenger search for coincident signals from the LIGO and Virgo gravitational-wave observatories and the partially completed IceCube high-energy neutrino detector, including periods of joint operation between 2007-2010. These include parts of the 2005-2007 run and the 200...

B.Made available in DSpace on 2022-04-29T07:26:54Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2016-02-11; On September 14, 2015 at 09:50:45 UTC the two detectors of the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory simultaneously observed a transient gravitational-wave signal. The signal sweeps upwards in frequency from 35 to 250 Hz with a peak gravitational-wave strain of 1.0×10-21. It matches the wa...
