Aim: To study of corneal biomechanical properties and intraocular pressure (IOP) measured with Corvis Scheimpflug Technology (ST) in patients with childhood glaucoma (CG).
Methods: Cross-sectional study in which 89 eyes were included 56 of them with CG. Only one eye per patient was included.
We present our current best estimate of the plausible observing scenarios for the Advanced LIGO, Advanced Virgo and KAGRA gravitational-wave detectors over the next several years, with the intention of providing information to facilitate planning for multi-messenger astronomy with gravitational waves. We estimate the sensitivity of the network to transient gravitational-wave signals for the third (O3), fourth (O4) and fifth observing (O5) runs, including the planned upgrades of the Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo detectors. We study the capability of the network to determine the sky location of the source for gravitational-wave signals from the inspiral of binary systems of compact objects, that is binary neutron star, neutron star-black hole, and binary black hole systems.

- On May 21, 2019, Advanced LIGO and Virgo detected a significant gravitational-wave signal known as GW190521, indicating a high probability event with a low chance of false alarms.
- The signal suggests it resulted from the merger of two black holes, one around 85 solar masses and the other about 66 solar masses, with the primary black hole likely being an intermediate mass black hole.
- The source of the merger is estimated to be about 5.3 billion light-years away, and the rate of similar black hole mergers is estimated to be about 0.13 mergers per billion cubic parsecs per year.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the existence of subsolar mass ultracompact objects by analyzing data from Advanced LIGO's second observing run and includes the impact of spin on gravitational waves.
- No suitable gravitational-wave candidates were found for binaries with at least one component between 0.2 and 1.0 solar masses, leading to significant constraints on their binary merger rates.
- The findings suggest that such ultracompact objects likely do not form through conventional stellar evolution, and they outline how these constraints on merger rates can be applied to different black hole population models that predict subsolar mass binaries.
The recent discovery by Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo of a gravitational wave signal from a binary neutron star inspiral has enabled tests of general relativity (GR) with this new type of source. This source, for the first time, permits tests of strong-field dynamics of compact binaries in the presence of matter. In this Letter, we place constraints on the dipole radiation and possible deviations from GR in the post-Newtonian coefficients that govern the inspiral regime.
