Gabriela Gonz\'alez (for the LIGO Science Collaboration)
TL;DR
This paper details the search for gravitational waves emitted by inspiraling neutron star binaries using data from LIGO's first scientific run, aiming to detect such astrophysical events.
Contribution
It presents the methodology and initial results of searching for neutron star inspirals in LIGO S1 data, marking an early step in gravitational wave astronomy.
Findings
No definitive detections in S1 data
Established upper limits on neutron star binary event rates
Demonstrated data analysis pipeline effectiveness
Abstract
We describe the search for gravitational waves from inspiraling neutron star binary systems, using data from the first Scientific Run of the LIGO Science Collaboration.
