While most of the compact-binary mergers detected by LIGO and Virgo are expected to
consist of first-generation black holes formed from the collapse of stars, others might instead …

The third Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog (GWTC-3) describes signals detected with
Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo up to the end of their third observing run. Updating the …

We report on the population properties of compact binary mergers inferred from gravitational-
wave observations of these systems during the first three LIGO-Virgo observing runs. The …

The second Gravitational-Wave Transient Catalog, GWTC-2, reported on 39 compact binary
coalescences observed by the Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo detectors between 1 …

We report on gravitational-wave discoveries from compact binary coalescences detected by
Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo in the first half of the third observing run (O3a) between …

We analyze the population properties of black holes (BHs) and neutron stars (NSs) in
compact binary systems using data from the LIGO–Virgo Gravitational-Wave Transient …

This Horizon Study describes a next-generation ground-based gravitational-wave
observatory: Cosmic Explorer. With ten times the sensitivity of Advanced LIGO, Cosmic …

We report the observation of gravitational waves from a binary-black-hole coalescence
during the first two weeks of LIGO's and Virgo's third observing run. The signal was recorded …

We present the results from three gravitational-wave searches for coalescing compact
binaries with component masses above 1 M⊙ during the first and second observing runs of …
