Frustration-induced strong quantum fluctuations accompanied by spin-orbit coupling and crystal electric field can give rise to rich and diverse magnetic phenomena associated with unconventional low-energy excitations in rare-earth based quantum magnets. Herein, we present crystal structure, magnetic susceptibility, specific heat, muon spin relaxation(muSR), and electron spin resonance (ESR) studies on the polycrystalline samples of Ba6Yb2Ti4O17 in which Yb3+ ions constitute a perfect triangular lattice in ab-plane without detectable anti-site disorder between atomic sites. The Curie-Weiss fit of low-temperature magnetic susceptibility data suggest the spin-orbit entangled Jeff = 1/2 degrees of freedom of Yb3+ spin with weak antiferromagnetic exchange interactions in the Kramers doublet ground state. The zero-field specific heat data reveal the presence of long-range magnetic order at TN = 77 mK which is suppressed in a magnetic field 1 T. The broad maximum in specific heat is attributed to the Schottky anomaly implying the Zeeman splitting of the Kramers doublet ground state. The ESR measurements suggest the presence of anisotropic exchange interaction between the moments of Yb3+ spins and the well separated Kramers doublet state. muSR experiments reveal a fluctuating state of Yb3+ spins in the temperature range 0.1 K-100 K owing to depopulation of crystal electric field levels, which suggests that the Kramers doublets are well separated consistent with thermodynamic and ESR results. In addition to the intraplane nearest-neighbor superexchange interaction, the interplane exchange interaction and anisotropy are expected to stabilize the long-range ordered state in this triangular lattice antiferromagnet.

Muon spin spectroscopy and in particular the avoid level crossing (ALC) technique is a sensitive probe of electron spin relaxation (eSR) in organic semiconductors. In complex ALC spectra, eSR can be challenging to extract, as it requires the modelling of overlapping ALCs, where covariance between parameters can result in significant uncertainties. Here we demonstrate a general method to extract eSR rate, which is independent on the number of ALCs resonances present, whether they overlap or not, and what the muonium hyperfine (isotropic and anisotropic) parameters are. This can then be used to extract an accurate value for eSR rate and as guidance for undertaking experiments efficiently

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons - Abstract
Co$_2$C nanoparticles (NPs) are amongst transition metal carbides whose magnetic properties have not been well explored. A recent study by Nirmal Roy et al. [1] showed that a collection of Co$_2$C NPs exhibit an exchange bias (EB) effect below T$_{EB}$ = 50 K and also a spin glass (SG) state below T$_{SG}$ = 5 K. We use magnetic, electrical transport, specific heat, and muon spin rotation ($\mu$SR) measurements to explore further the magnetic properties of these NPs. We uncover the onset of Kondo localization at Kondo temperature T$_K$ (= 40.1 K), near the onset of EB effect. A crossover from the Kondo-screened scenario to an RKKY interaction-dominated regime is also observed for T < T$_K$. Specific heat measurements confirm Kondo localization and heavy fermionic nature in Co$_2$C at low T. At low T, zero field $\mu$SR spectra reveal a dominant magnetically disordered fraction with slow relaxation and a smaller fraction with short-range order exhibiting fast relaxation, with no evidence of long-range magnetic order. We observe an increase in this fast relaxation rate between T$_{EB}$ and T$_{SG}$, suggesting a slowing down of the fluctuating local magnetic environment around muons. Transverse field $\mu$SR spectra show the emergence of a stable, multi-peaked local magnetic field distribution below T$_{EB}$. Longitudinal field $\mu$SR spectra shows distinct changes in the dynamics of fluctuations suggesting the presence of a frozen glassy like state below 6 K. Our results suggest that below T$_{EB}$, Co$_2$C NPs pellet develops a magnetic interface, separating disordered and short-range order fractions. The Exchange interaction that sets in below T$_{EB}$ at the interface couples them and suppresses the fluctuations. With the suppression of magnetic fluctuations below T$_{EB}$, strong correlation effects in the electronic state of Co$_2$C lead to Kondo localization., Comment: 37 Pages, 11 Figures

Condensed Matter - Materials Science - Abstract
Muonium (Mu), a pseudo-isotope atom of hydrogen with a positively charged muon at the place of the proton, can form in a wide range of semiconductor materials. They can appear in different states, depending on their charge state and microscopic site within a crystal lattice. After the Mu formation, they undergo interactions with free charge carriers, electronic spins, and other Mu sites, and form a dynamic network of state exchange. We identified the model of Mu dynamics in n-type Gallium Arsenide using the density matrix simulation and photoexcited muon spin spectroscopy technique. Fitting to the dark and illuminated $\mu$SR data provided transition rates between Mu states, which in turn showed the underlying mechanism of the $\mu$SR time spectra. Deduced capture/scattering cross sections of the Mu states reflected the microscopic dynamics of Mu. Illumination studies enable us to measure interactions between Mu and generated minority carriers, which are unavailable in dark measurements. The methodology we developed in this study can be applied to other semiconductor systems for a deeper microscopic understanding of the Mu state exchange dynamics.

Abstract Non-syndromic orofacial clefts (NSOFCs) are common birth defects with a complex etiology. While over 60 common risk loci have been identified, they explain only a small proportion of the heritability for NSOFCs. Rare variants have been implicated in the missing heritability. Thus, our study aimed to identify genes enriched with nonsynonymous rare coding variants associated with NSOFCs. Our sample included 814 non-syndromic cleft lip with or without palate (NSCL/P), 205 non-syndromic cleft palate only (NSCPO), and 2150 unrelated control children from Nigeria, Ghana, and Ethiopia. We conducted a gene-based analysis separately for each phenotype using three rare-variants collapsing models: (1) protein-altering (PA), (2) missense variants only (MO); and (3) loss of function variants only (LOFO). Subsequently, we utilized relevant transcriptomics data to evaluate associated gene expression and examined their mutation constraint using the gnomeAD database. In total, 13 genes showed suggestive associations (p = E−04). Among them, eight genes (ABCB1, ALKBH8, CENPF, CSAD, EXPH5, PDZD8, SLC16A9, and TTC28) were consistently expressed in relevant mouse and human craniofacial tissues during the formation of the face, and three genes (ABCB1, TTC28, and PDZD8) showed statistically significant mutation constraint. These findings underscore the role of rare variants in identifying candidate genes for NSOFCs.

Cu(In,Ga) Se 2 (CIGS) and Cu 2 ZnSnS 4 (CZTS) are potential absorber materials for solar cell applications. We report an investigation of these materials using muon spin spectroscopy. In these experiments, positive muons produced at accelerator facilities (here the ISIS Facility, Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, U.K.) are implanted into the material and come to rest at interstitial sites in the host lattice. The muon is a sensitive local probe to study materials properties on an atomistic level. An advantage of the method is that interface properties can be studied by placing the probe particles at different depths in the sample. Muonium, the positive muon with an electron, can be considered as a light isotope of hydrogen (mass ratio 1/9) with almost identical electronic properties to hydrogen. Thus, muon spectroscopy provides also information about hydrogen in the host material. The aim of the present experiment is to obtain information about the muonium/hydrogen states formed in CIGS and CZTS solar cell materials. A major goal of the experiment is to obtain information about the physical embedding process of the implanted particle into the host lattice. The present study combines experimental measurements with total energy calculations in the framework of density functional theory. We obtain the final configurations of muonium in CZTS, that we discuss in parallel to those in CIGS. This allows us to deepen our understanding of the influence of the hydrogen impurity on the properties of these materials. We also discuss the final steps in the process of muon implantation in these materials. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract Background A fundamental ethical issue in African genomics research is how socio-cultural factors impact perspectives, acceptance, and utility of genomic information, especially in stigmatizing conditions like orofacial clefts (OFCs). Previous research has shown that gatekeepers (e.g., religious, political, family or community leaders) wield considerable influence on the decision-making capabilities of their members, including health issues. Thus, their perspectives can inform the design of engagement strategies and increase exposure to the benefits of genomics testing/research. This is especially important for Africans underrepresented in genomic research. Our study aims to investigate the perspectives of gatekeepers concerning genomic risk information (GRI) in the presence of OFCs in a sub-Saharan African cohort. Methods Twenty-five focus group discussions (FGDs) consisting of 214 gatekeepers (religious, community, ethnic leaders, and traditional birth attendants) in Lagos, Nigeria, explored the opinions of participants on genomic risk information (GRI), OFC experience, and the possibility of involvement in collaborative decision-making in Lagos, Nigeria. Transcripts generated from audio recordings were coded and analyzed in NVivo using thematic analysis. Results Three main themes—knowledge, beliefs, and willingness to act—emerged from exploring the perspective of gatekeepers about GRI in this group. We observed mixed opinions regarding the acceptance of GRI. Many participants believed their role is to guide and support members when they receive results; this is based on the level of trust their members have in them. However, participants felt they would need to be trained by medical experts to do this. Also, religious and cultural beliefs were crucial to determining participants’ understanding of OFCs and the acceptance and utilization of GRI. Conclusions Incorporating cultural sensitivity into public engagement could help develop appropriate strategies to manage conflicting ideologies surrounding genomic information in African communities. This will allow for more widespread access to the advances in genomics research in underrepresented populations. We also recommend a synergistic relationship between community health specialists/scientists, and community leaders, including spiritual providers to better understand and utilize GRI.

Condensed Matter - Superconductivity - Abstract
The nonsymmorphic Zr$_{2}$Ir alloy is a possible topological semimetal candidate material and as such may be part of an exotic class of superconductors. Zr$_{2}$Ir is a superconductor with a transition temperature of 7.4 K with critical fields of 19.6(3) mT and 3.79(3) T, as determined by heat capacity and magnetisation. Zero field muon spin relaxation measurements show that time-reversal symmetry is preserved in these materials. The specific heat and transverse field muon spin rotation measurements rule out any possibility to have a nodal or anisotropic superconducting gap, revealing a conventional s-wave nature in the superconducting ground state. Therefore, this system is found to be conventional nonsymmorphic superconductor, with time-reversal symmetry being preserved and an isotropic superconducting gap., Comment: 7 Pages, 10 figres

Condensed Matter - Materials Science - Abstract
Muons, as a bulk probe of materials, have been used to study the depth profile of charge carrier kinetics in Si wafers by scanning the muon implantation depth. The photoexcited muon spin spectroscopy technique can optically generate excess carriers in semiconductor wafers, while muons can measure the excess carrier density. As a result, carrier recombination lifetime spectra can be obtained. The depth-dependent lifetime spectra enable us to accurately measure the bulk carrier lifetime and surface recombination velocity by fitting the spectra to a simple 1-dimensional diffusion model. Unlike other traditional lifetime spectroscopy techniques, the bulk and surface recombination properties can be readily de-convoluted in this method. Here, we have applied the technique to study silicon wafers both with and without passivation treatment, and have demonstrated that the model can correctly describe the carrier kinetics in these two cases., Comment: 5 pages, 2 figures

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons - Abstract
We investigate the critical properties of the spin-$1$ honeycomb antiferromagnet BaNi$_2$V$_2$O$_8$, both below and above the ordering temperature $T_N$ using neutron diffraction and muon spin rotation measurements. Our results characterize BaNi$_2$V$_2$O$_8$ as a two-dimensional (2D) antiferromagnet across the entire temperature range, displaying a series of crossovers from 2D Ising-like to 2D XY and then to 2D Heisenberg behavior with increasing temperature. In particular, the extracted critical exponent of the order parameter reveals a narrow temperature regime close to $T_N$, in which the system behaves as a 2D XY antiferromagnet. Above $T_N$, evidence for Berezinsky-Kosterlitz-Thouless behavior driven by vortex excitations is obtained from the scaling of the correlation length. Our experimental results are in accord with classical and quantum Monte Carlo simulations performed for microscopic magnetic model Hamiltonians for BaNi$_2$V$_2$O$_8$., Comment: 16 pages, 17 figures

Reduced dimensionality offers a crucial information in deciding the type of the quantum ground state in heavy fermion materials. Here we have examined stoichiometric CeCo$_{2}$Ga$_{8}$ compound, which crystallizes in a quasi-one-dimensional crystal structure with Ga-Ce-Co chains along the $c$-axis. The low-temperature behavior of magnetic susceptibility ($\chi\sim-\ln T$), heat capacity ($C_p/T\sim-\ln T$), and resistivity ($\rho\sim T^{n}$) firmly confirm the non-Fermi liquid ground state of CeCo$_{2}$Ga$_{8}$. We studied the low-energy spin dynamics of CeCo$_{2}$Ga$_{8}$ compound utilizing zero field (ZF-) and longitudinal field (LF-) muon spin relaxation ($\mu$SR) measurements. ZF-$\mu$SR measurement reveals the absence of long-range magnetic ordering down to 70 mK, and interestingly below 1 K, the electronic relaxation rate sharply rises, intimating the appearance of low energy quantum spin fluctuations in CeCo$_{2}$Ga$_{8}$., Comment: 6 pages, 2 figures

In this letter, we have examined the superconducting ground state of the HfV$_2$Ga$_4$ compound using resistivity, magnetization, zero-field (ZF) and transverse-field (TF) muon-spin relaxation and rotation ($\mu$SR) measurements. Resistivity and magnetization unveil the onset of bulk superconductivity with $T_{\bf c}\sim$ 3.9~K, while TF-$\mu$SR measurements show that the temperature dependence of the superfluid density is well described by a nodal two-gap $s$+$d$-wave order parameter model. In addition, ZF muon relaxation rate increases with decreasing temperature below 4.6 K, indicating the presence of weak spin fluctuations. These observations suggest an unconventional multiband nature of the superconductivity possibly arising from the distinct $d$-bands of V and Hf ions with spin fluctuations playing an important role. To better understand these findings, we carry out first-principles electronic-structure calculations, further highlighting that the Fermi surface consists of multiple disconnected sheets with very different orbital weights and spin-orbit coupling, bridging the way for a nodal multiband superconductivity scenario. In this vein, therefore, HfV$_2$Ga$_4$-family stands out as an open avenue to novel unexplored unconventional superconducting compounds, such as ScV$_2$Ga$_4$ and ZrV$_2$Ga$_4$, and other many rare earths based materials., Comment: 5 pages, 3 figures

Condensed Matter - Materials Science - Abstract
We have applied the photoexcited muon spin spectroscopy technique (photo-$\mu$SR) to intrinsic germanium with the goal of developing a new method for characterizing excess carrier kinetics in a wide range of semiconductors. Muon spin relaxation rates can be a unique measure of excess carrier density and utilized to investigate carrier dynamics. The obtained carrier lifetime spectrum can be modeled with a simple diffusion equation to determine bulk recombination lifetime and carrier mobility. Temperature dependent studies of these parameters can reveal the recombination and diffusion mechanism., Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons - Abstract
One of the key questions concerning frustrated lattices that has lately emerged is the role of disorder in inducing spin-liquid-like properties. In this context, the quantum kagome antiferromagnets YCu$_3$(OH)$_6$Cl$_3$, which has been recently reported as the first geometrically perfect realization of the kagome lattice with negligible magnetic/non-magnetic intersite mixing and a possible quantum-spin-liquid ground state, is of particular interest. However, contrary to previous conjectures, here we show clear evidence of bulk magnetic ordering in this compound below $T_N=15$\,K by combining bulk magnetization and heat capacity measurements, and local-probe muon spin relaxation measurements. The magnetic ordering in this material is rather unconventional in several respects. Firstly, a crossover regime where the ordered state coexists with the paramagnetic state extends down to $T_N/3$ and, secondly, the fluctuation crossover is shifted far below $T_N$. Moreover, a reduced magnetic-entropy release at $T_N$ and persistent spin dynamics that is observed at temperatures as low as $T/T_N=1/300$ could be a sign of emergent excitations of correlated spin-loops or, alternatively, a sign of fragmentation of each magnetic moment into an ordered and a fluctuating part., Comment: Published in PRB

Condensed Matter - Strongly Correlated Electrons - Abstract
The fascinating multiple magnetic states observed in the Ni-Mn-Sn based metamagnetic shape memory alloy are addressed through a combined muon spin relaxation (muSR) and neutron powder diffraction studies. The material used in the present investigation is an off-stoichiometric alloy of nominal composition, Ni[2.04]Mn[1.4]Sn[0.56]. This prototypical alloy, similar to other members in the Ni-Mn-Sn series, orders ferromagnetically below T[CA] (= 320 K), and undergoes martensitic type structural transition at T[MS] (= 290 K), which is associated with the sudden loss of magnetization. The sample regains its magnetization below another magnetic transition at T[CM] = 260 K. Eventually, the composition shows a step-like anomaly at T[B] = 120 K, which is found to coincide with the blocking temperature of exchange bias effect observed in the alloy. In our study, the initial asymmetry A_[10] ) of the $\mu$SR data falls rapidly below T[CA], indicating the onset of bulk magnetic order. A[10] regains its full asymmetry value below T[MS] suggesting the collapse of the ferromagnetic order into a fully disordered paramagnetic state. Below the second magnetic transition at T[CM], asymmetry drops again, confirming the re-entrance of a long range ordered state. Interestingly, A[10] increases sluggishly below T[B], indicating that the system attains a disordered/glassy magnetic phase below T[B], which is responsible for the exchange bias and frequency dispersion in the ac susceptibility data as previously reported. The neutron powder diffraction data do not show any magnetic superlattice reflections, ruling out the possibility of a long range antiferromagnetic state at low temperatures. The ground state is likely to be comprised of a concentrated metallic spin-glass in the backdrop of an ordered ferromagnetic state., Comment: 9 pages, 6 figures

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology ,Astrophysics - Cosmology and Nongalactic Astrophysics - Abstract
The detection of gravitational waves with Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo has enabled novel tests of general relativity, including direct study of the polarization of gravitational waves. While general relativity allows for only two tensor gravitational-wave polarizations, general metric theories can additionally predict two vector and two scalar polarizations. The polarization of gravitational waves is encoded in the spectral shape of the stochastic gravitational-wave background, formed by the superposition of cosmological and individually-unresolved astrophysical sources. Using data recorded by Advanced LIGO during its first observing run, we search for a stochastic background of generically-polarized gravitational waves. We find no evidence for a background of any polarization, and place the first direct bounds on the contributions of vector and scalar polarizations to the stochastic background. Under log-uniform priors for the energy in each polarization, we limit the energy-densities of tensor, vector, and scalar modes at 95% credibility to $\Omega^T_0 < 5.6 \times 10^{-8}$, $\Omega^V_0 < 6.4\times 10^{-8}$, and $\Omega^S_0 < 1.1\times 10^{-7}$ at a reference frequency $f_0 = 25$ Hz., Comment: Minor updates to match published version

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology - Abstract
We report on a new all-sky search for periodic gravitational waves in the frequency band 475-2000 Hz and with a frequency time derivative in the range of [-1.0e-8, +1e-9] Hz/s. Potential signals could be produced by a nearby spinning and slightly non-axisymmetric isolated neutron star in our galaxy. This search uses the data from Advanced LIGO's first observational run O1. No gravitational wave signals were observed, and upper limits were placed on their strengths. For completeness, results from the separately published low frequency search 20-475 Hz are included as well. Our lowest upper limit on worst-case (linearly polarized) strain amplitude h_0 is 4e-25 near 170 Hz, while at the high end of our frequency range we achieve a worst-case upper limit of 1.3e-24. For a circularly polarized source (most favorable orientation), the smallest upper limit obtained is ~1.5e-25.

Cosmic strings are topological defects which can be formed in GUT-scale phase transitions in the early universe. They are also predicted to form in the context of string theory. The main mechanism for a network of Nambu-Goto cosmic strings to lose energy is through the production of loops and the subsequent emission of gravitational waves, thus offering an experimental signature for the existence of cosmic strings. Here we report on the analysis conducted to specifically search for gravitational-wave bursts from cosmic string loops in the data of Advanced LIGO 2015-2016 observing run (O1). No evidence of such signals was found in the data, and as a result we set upper limits on the cosmic string parameters for three recent loop distribution models. In this paper, we initially derive constraints on the string tension $G\mu$ and the intercommutation probability, using not only the burst analysis performed on the O1 data set, but also results from the previously published LIGO stochastic O1 analysis, pulsar timing arrays, cosmic microwave background and Big-Bang nucleosynthesis experiments. We show that these data sets are complementary in that they probe gravitational waves produced by cosmic string loops during very different epochs. Finally, we show that the data sets exclude large parts of the parameter space of the three loop distribution models we consider., Comment: Physical Review D, in-press

We present the results of a search for long-duration gravitational wave transients in the data of the LIGO Hanford and LIGO Livingston second generation detectors between September 2015 and January 2016, with a total observational time of 49 days. The search targets gravitational wave transients of \unit[10 -- 500]{s} duration in a frequency band of \unit[24 -- 2048]{Hz}, with minimal assumptions about the signal waveform, polarization, source direction, or time of occurrence. No significant events were observed. %All candidate triggers were consistent with the expected background, As a result we set 90\% confidence upper limits on the rate of long-duration gravitational wave transients for different types of gravitational wave signals. We also show that the search is sensitive to sources in the Galaxy emitting at least $\sim$ \unit[$10^{-8}$]{$\mathrm{M_{\odot} c^2}$} in gravitational waves.

Astrophysics - High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena ,General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology - Abstract
On June 8, 2017 at 02:01:16.49 UTC, a gravitational-wave signal from the merger of two stellar-mass black holes was observed by the two Advanced LIGO detectors with a network signal-to-noise ratio of 13. This system is the lightest black hole binary so far observed, with component masses $12^{+7}_{-2}\,M_\odot$ and $7^{+2}_{-2}\,M_\odot$ (90% credible intervals). These lie in the range of measured black hole masses in low-mass X-ray binaries, thus allowing us to compare black holes detected through gravitational waves with electromagnetic observations. The source's luminosity distance is $340^{+140}_{-140}$ Mpc, corresponding to redshift $0.07^{+0.03}_{-0.03}$. We verify that the signal waveform is consistent with the predictions of general relativity.

Abstract The majority (85%) of nonsyndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (nsCL/P) cases occur sporadically, suggesting a role for de novo mutations (DNMs) in the etiology of nsCL/P. To identify high impact protein-altering DNMs that contribute to the risk of nsCL/P, we conducted whole-genome sequencing (WGS) analyses in 130 African case-parent trios (affected probands and unaffected parents). We identified 162 high confidence protein-altering DNMs some of which are based on available evidence, contribute to the risk of nsCL/P. These include novel protein-truncating DNMs in the ACTL6A, ARHGAP10, MINK1, TMEM5 and TTN genes; as well as missense variants in ACAN, DHRS3, DLX6, EPHB2, FKBP10, KMT2D, RECQL4, SEMA3C, SEMA4D, SHH, TP63, and TULP4. Many of these protein-altering DNMs were predicted to be pathogenic. Analysis using mouse transcriptomics data showed that some of these genes are expressed during the development of primary and secondary palate. Gene-set enrichment analysis of the protein-altering DNMs identified palatal development and neural crest migration among the few processes that were significantly enriched. These processes are directly involved in the etiopathogenesis of clefting. The analysis of the coding sequence in the WGS data provides more evidence of the opportunity for novel findings in the African genome.

The first observation of a binary neutron star coalescence by the Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo gravitational-wave detectors offers an unprecedented opportunity to study matter under the most extreme conditions. After such a merger, a compact remnant is left over whose nature depends primarily on the masses of the inspiralling objects and on the equation of state of nuclear matter. This could be either a black hole or a neutron star (NS), with the latter being either long-lived or too massive for stability implying delayed collapse to a black hole. Here, we present a search for gravitational waves from the remnant of the binary neutron star merger GW170817 using data from Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo. We search for short ($\lesssim1$ s) and intermediate-duration ($\lesssim 500$ s) signals, which includes gravitational-wave emission from a hypermassive NS or supramassive NS, respectively. We find no signal from the post-merger remnant. Our derived strain upper limits are more than an order of magnitude larger than those predicted by most models. For short signals, our best upper limit on the root-sum-square of the gravitational-wave strain emitted from 1--4 kHz is $h_{\rm rss}^{50\%}=2.1\times 10^{-22}$ Hz$^{-1/2}$ at 50% detection efficiency. For intermediate-duration signals, our best upper limit at 50% detection efficiency is $h_{\rm rss}^{50\%}=8.4\times 10^{-22}$ Hz$^{-1/2}$ for a millisecond magnetar model, and $h_{\rm rss}^{50\%}=5.9\times 10^{-22}$ Hz$^{-1/2}$ for a bar-mode model. These results indicate that post-merger emission from a similar event may be detectable when advanced detectors reach design sensitivity or with next-generation detectors.

The detection of GW170817 in both gravitational waves and electromagnetic waves heralds the age of gravitational-wave multi-messenger astronomy. On 17 August 2017 the Advanced LIGO and Virgo detectors observed GW170817, a strong signal from the merger of a binary neutron-star system. Less than 2 seconds after the merger, a gamma-ray burst (GRB 170817A) was detected within a region of the sky consistent with the LIGO-Virgo-derived location of the gravitational-wave source. This sky region was subsequently observed by optical astronomy facilities, resulting in the identification of an optical transient signal within $\sim 10$ arcsec of the galaxy NGC 4993. These multi-messenger observations allow us to use GW170817 as a standard siren, the gravitational-wave analog of an astronomical standard candle, to measure the Hubble constant. This quantity, which represents the local expansion rate of the Universe, sets the overall scale of the Universe and is of fundamental importance to cosmology. Our measurement combines the distance to the source inferred purely from the gravitational-wave signal with the recession velocity inferred from measurements of the redshift using electromagnetic data. This approach does not require any form of cosmic "distance ladder;" the gravitational wave analysis can be used to estimate the luminosity distance out to cosmological scales directly, without the use of intermediate astronomical distance measurements. We determine the Hubble constant to be $70.0^{+12.0}_{-8.0} \, \mathrm{km} \, \mathrm{s}^{-1} \, \mathrm{Mpc}^{-1}$ (maximum a posteriori and 68% credible interval). This is consistent with existing measurements, while being completely independent of them. Additional standard-siren measurements from future gravitational-wave sources will provide precision constraints of this important cosmological parameter., Comment: 26 pages, 5 figures, Nature in press.

Astrophysics - High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena - Abstract
The Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo observatories recently discovered gravitational waves from a binary neutron star inspiral. A short gamma-ray burst (GRB) that followed the merger of this binary was also recorded by the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (Fermi-GBM), and the Anticoincidence Shield for the Spectrometer for the International Gamma-Ray Astrophysics Laboratory (INTEGRAL), indicating particle acceleration by the source. The precise location of the event was determined by optical detections of emission following the merger. We searched for high-energy neutrinos from the merger in the GeV--EeV energy range using the ANTARES, IceCube, and Pierre Auger Observatories. No neutrinos directionally coincident with the source were detected within $\pm500$ s around the merger time. Additionally, no MeV neutrino burst signal was detected coincident with the merger. We further carried out an extended search in the direction of the source for high-energy neutrinos within the 14-day period following the merger, but found no evidence of emission. We used these results to probe dissipation mechanisms in relativistic outflows driven by the binary neutron star merger. The non-detection is consistent with model predictions of short GRBs observed at a large off-axis angle., Comment: 22 pages, 2 figures

On 2017 August 17 the merger of two compact objects with masses consistent with two neutron stars was discovered through gravitational-wave (GW170817), gamma-ray (GRB 170817A), and optical (SSS17a/AT 2017gfo) observations. The optical source was associated with the early-type galaxy NGC 4993 at a distance of just $\sim$40 Mpc, consistent with the gravitational-wave measurement, and the merger was localized to be at a projected distance of $\sim$2 kpc away from the galaxy's center. We use this minimal set of facts and the mass posteriors of the two neutron stars to derive the first constraints on the progenitor of GW170817 at the time of the second supernova (SN). We generate simulated progenitor populations and follow the three-dimensional kinematic evolution from the binary neutron star (BNS) birth to the merger time, accounting for pre-SN galactic motion, for considerably different input distributions of the progenitor mass, pre-SN semimajor axis, and SN-kick velocity. Though not considerably tight, we find these constraints to be comparable to those for Galactic BNS progenitors. The derived constraints are very strongly influenced by the requirement of keeping the binary bound after the second SN and having the merger occur relatively close to the center of the galaxy. These constraints are insensitive to the galaxy's star formation history, provided the stellar populations are older than 1 Gyr., Comment: 18 pages, 8 figures, 2 tables

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology - Abstract
The LIGO Scientific and Virgo Collaborations have announced the first detection of gravitational waves from the coalescence of two neutron stars. The merger rate of binary neutron stars estimated from this event suggests that distant, unresolvable binary neutron stars create a significant astrophysical stochastic gravitational-wave background. The binary neutron star background will add to the background from binary black holes, increasing the amplitude of the total astrophysical background relative to previous expectations. In the Advanced LIGO-Virgo frequency band most sensitive to stochastic backgrounds (near 25 Hz), we predict a total astrophysical background with amplitude $\Omega_{\rm GW} (f=25 \text{Hz}) = 1.8_{-1.3}^{+2.7} \times 10^{-9}$ with $90\%$ confidence, compared with $\Omega_{\rm GW} (f=25 \text{Hz}) = 1.1_{-0.7}^{+1.2} \times 10^{-9}$ from binary black holes alone. Assuming the most probable rate for compact binary mergers, we find that the total background may be detectable with a signal-to-noise-ratio of 3 after 40 months of total observation time, based on the expected timeline for Advanced LIGO and Virgo to reach their design sensitivity., Comment: 12 pages, 3 figures

Astrophysics - High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena - Abstract
The source of the gravitational-wave signal GW170817, very likely a binary neutron star merger, was also observed electromagnetically, providing the first multi-messenger observations of this type. The two week long electromagnetic counterpart had a signature indicative of an r-process-induced optical transient known as a kilonova. This Letter examines how the mass of the dynamical ejecta can be estimated without a direct electromagnetic observation of the kilonova, using gravitational-wave measurements and a phenomenological model calibrated to numerical simulations of mergers with dynamical ejecta. Specifically, we apply the model to the binary masses inferred from the gravitational-wave measurements, and use the resulting mass of the dynamical ejecta to estimate its contribution (without the effects of wind ejecta) to the corresponding kilonova light curves from various models. The distributions of dynamical ejecta mass range between $M_{ej} = 10^{-3} - 10^{-2} M_{\odot}$ for various equations of state, assuming the neutron stars are rotating slowly. In addition, we use our estimates of the dynamical ejecta mass and the neutron star merger rates inferred from GW170817 to constrain the contribution of events like this to the r-process element abundance in the Galaxy when ejecta mass from post-merger winds is neglected. We find that if $\gtrsim10\%$ of the matter dynamically ejected from BNS mergers is converted to r-process elements, GW170817-like BNS mergers could fully account for the amount of r-process material observed in the Milky Way., Comment: 18 pages, 5 figures, accepted for publication in ApJ Letters

Spinning neutron stars asymmetric with respect to their rotation axis are potential sources of continuous gravitational waves for ground-based interferometric detectors. In the case of known pulsars a fully coherent search, based on matched filtering, which uses the position and rotational parameters obtained from electromagnetic observations, can be carried out. Matched filtering maximizes the signal-to-noise (SNR) ratio, but a large sensitivity loss is expected in case of even a very small mismatch between the assumed and the true signal parameters. For this reason, {\it narrow-band} analyses methods have been developed, allowing a fully coherent search for gravitational waves from known pulsars over a fraction of a hertz and several spin-down values. In this paper we describe a narrow-band search of eleven pulsars using data from Advanced LIGO's first observing run. Although we have found several initial outliers, further studies show no significant evidence for the presence of a gravitational wave signal. Finally, we have placed upper limits on the signal strain amplitude lower than the spin-down limit for 5 of the 11 targets over the bands searched: in the case of J1813-1749 the spin-down limit has been beaten for the first time. For an additional 3 targets, the median upper limit across the search bands is below the spin-down limit. This is the most sensitive narrow-band search for continuous gravitational waves carried out so far., Comment: 9 Figures, 7 tables, submitted to PRD

The first observing run of Advanced LIGO spanned 4 months, from September 12, 2015 to January 19, 2016, during which gravitational waves were directly detected from two binary black hole systems, namely GW150914 and GW151226. Confident detection of gravitational waves requires an understanding of instrumental transients and artifacts that can reduce the sensitivity of a search. Studies of the quality of the detector data yield insights into the cause of instrumental artifacts and data quality vetoes specific to a search are produced to mitigate the effects of problematic data. In this paper, the systematic removal of noisy data from analysis time is shown to improve the sensitivity of searches for compact binary coalescences. The output of the PyCBC pipeline, which is a python-based code package used to search for gravitational wave signals from compact binary coalescences, is used as a metric for improvement. GW150914 was a loud enough signal that removing noisy data did not improve its significance. However, the removal of data with excess noise decreased the false alarm rate of GW151226 by more than two orders of magnitude, from 1 in 770 years to less than 1 in 186000 years., Comment: 27 pages, 13 figures, published version
