We present an up-to-date, comprehensive summary of the rates for all types of compact
binary coalescence sources detectable by the initial and advanced versions of the ground …

Advanced Virgo is the project to upgrade the Virgo interferometric detector of gravitational
waves, with the aim of increasing the number of observable galaxies (and thus the detection …

Between 2007 and 2010 Virgo collected data in coincidence with the LIGO and GEO
gravitational-wave (GW) detectors. These data have been searched for GWs emitted by …

Between July 2009 and October 2010, the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave
Observatory (LIGO)[1] operated two 4 km laser interferometers as part of a global network …

Background Head and neck (H&N) cancers are a heterogeneous group of malignancies,
affecting various sites, with different prognoses. The aims of this study are to analyse …

Background A single flexible sigmoidoscopy at around the age of 60 years has been
proposed as an effective strategy for colorectal cancer (CRC) screening. Methods We …

Gravitational waves (GW) were predicted by Einstein [1] as a consequence of the theory of
General Relativity; its geometrical interpretation states that gravitation is the result of the …

We report on a search for gravitational waves from coalescing compact binaries using LIGO
and Virgo observations between July 7, 2009, and October 20, 2010. We searched for …

Abstract Background Survival differences across Europe for patients with cancers of breast,
uterus, cervix, ovary, vagina and vulva have been documented by previous EUROCARE …

We describe the present state and future evolution of the Virgo gravitational wave detector,
realized by the Virgo Collaboration at the European Gravitational Observatory, in Cascina …
