Review of the Advanced LIGO gravitational wave observatories leading to observing run four
read the original abstract
Gravitational waves from binary black hole and neutron star mergers are being regularly detected. As of 2021, ninety confident gravitational wave detections have been made by the LIGO and Virgo detectors. Work is ongoing to further increase the sensitivity of the detectors for the fourth observing run, including installing some of the A+ upgrades designed to lower the fundamental noise that limits the sensitivity to gravitational waves. In this review, we will overview how the LIGO detectors work, including their optical configuration and lock acquisition procedure, discuss the detectors' fundamental and technical noise limits and compare to the current measured sensitivity, and review the A+ upgrades currently being installed in the detectors.

Regular Vaidya solutions of effective gravitational theories
Regular Vaidya solutions exist in effective gravitational theories that dynamically describe radiation-driven formation of regular black holes or mimickers without curvature singularities.

Photon counting readout for detection and inference of gravitational waves from neutron star merger remnants
Photon counting readout detects weak postmerger gravitational wave signals at a rate of about 1 in 100 for SNR 0.2 and yields a twofold improvement in neutron star radius measurement after 20,000 events.
