Together with the results from [1], this search completes the all-sky survey for frequencies between 20 to 600 Hz on O1 data. It also demonstrates the scalability of our search on a parameter space 26 times larger than previously considered. The results presented here complement the LIGO O2 data results [2,3] with comparable when not better sensitivity and do not rely on data with irregularities in the noise-subtraction procedure. We establish strict upper limits which hold for worst-case signal parameters and dedicated upper limits for generic ~0 spindown signals, such as those expected from boson condensates around black holes.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-09-20T17:12:11.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "extended falcon all-sky survey", "continuous gravitational wave", "ligo o2 data results", "gravitational wave signals", "establish strict upper limits" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
