我们报告了一个搜索引力波的螺旋,合并和振铃的双黑洞(BBH)的总质量在25和100太阳质量之间,在2009年7月7日和2010年10月20日之间在LIGO和处女座天文台的数据。在此期间,探测器对合并的最大敏感距离为300 Mpc。没有引力波信号被发现。因此,我们报告的上限BBH的天体物理聚结率作为一个功能的组件质量的nonspinning组件,也评估的依赖搜索灵敏度组件自旋对齐的轨道角动量。我们发现,在90%的置信度上的BBH与非自旋组件的质量之间的合并率的上限19 andofmerger。
We report a search for gravitational waves from the inspiral, merger and ringdown of binary black holes (BBH) with total mass between 25 and 100 solar masses, in data taken at the LIGO and Virgo observatories between July 7, 2009 and October 20, 2010. The maximum sensitive distance of the detectors over this period for acoalescence was 300 Mpc. No gravitational wave signals were found. We thus report upper limits on the astrophysical coalescence rates of BBH as a function of the component masses for nonspinning components, and also evaluate the dependence of the search sensitivity on component spins aligned with the orbital angular momentum. We find an upper limit at 90% confidence on the coalescence rate of BBH with nonspinning components of mass between 19 andofmergers.
