Gravitational-wave sources
The sources of gravitational radiation that seem to be most likely to be detected by planned groundand space-based gravitational-wave detectors are reviewed, with particular attention to the likely information that observations of them will reveal. A particular emphasis is placed on observations by LISA, the fundamental-physics Cornerstone project of the European Space Agency’s Horizon 2000+ pr...
متن کاملSearching for Gravitational-Wave Bursts with LIGO
We present recent results from searches by the LIGO Science Collaboration for bursts of gravitational-wave radiation, as well as the status of other ongoing searches. These include directed searches for bursts associated with observed sources (gamma-ray bursts, soft gamma repeaters) and untriggered searches for bursts from unknown sources. We also present the status of some newer investigations...
متن کاملLIGO: The Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory
LIGO: The Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory The LIGO Scientific Collaboration The goal of the Laser Interferometric Gravitational-WaveObservatory (LIGO) is to detect and study gravitational waves of astrophysical origin. Direct detection of gravitational waves holds the promise of testing general relativity in the strong-field limit, of providing a new probe of exotic objects ...
متن کاملGravitational-Wave Signal Simulation for LIGO
The Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO) has been constructed to directly measure the distortion of spacetime due to an impinging gravitational-wave (GW). LIGO’s biggest challenge is that the size of the signal is tremendously weak, and there are various kinds of noises that need to be suppressed to make the tiny signal visible. In order to assist in tackling this issue, a...
متن کاملGravitational Wave Sources from New Physics
Forthcoming advances in direct gravitational wave detection from kilohertz to nanohertz frequencies have unique capabilities to detect signatures from or set meaningful constraints on a wide range of new cosmological phenomena and new fundamental physics. A brief survey is presented of the post-inflationary gravitational radiation backgrounds predicted in cosmologies that include intense new cl...
