Title |
GWTC-1: First LIGO/Virgo Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog |
|
Abstract |
After the end of the O2 observing run, the LIGO and Virgo data were reprocessed and
reanalyzed delivering the final O1 and O2 results. We will discuss the content of the catalog
consisting of 10 BBH merger signals (4 of which are new discoveries) and one BNS merger
signal (arXiv:1811.12907). We will also report the results of the companion article devoted
to the astrophysical rates and parameters of the previously not known stellar-mass BH
population (arXiv:1811.12940). |
