SEARCHES FOR INSPIRAL GRAVITATIONAL WAVES ASSOCIATED WITH SHORT GAMMA-RAY BURSTS IN LIGO'S FIFTH AND VIRGO'S FIRST SCIENCE RU'

摘要

This brief report describes the search for gravitational-wave inspiral signals from short gamma-ray bursts. Since these events are probably created by the merger of two compact objects, a targeted search with a lower threshold can be made. The data around 22 short gamma-ray bursts have been analyzed.
