Directional Limits on Persistent Gravitational Waves Using LIGO S5 Science Data

Directional Limits on Persistent Gravitational Waves Using LIGO S5 Science Data

The gravitational-wave (GW) sky may include nearby pointlike sources as well as stochastic backgrounds. We perform two directional searches for persistent GWs using data from the LIGO S5 science run: one optimized for pointlike sources and one for arbitrary extended sources. Finding no evidence to s...
