- As co-chair of the LIGO-Virgo Compact Binary Coalescences group, Veitch had overall responsibility for the analysis of the data during the first LIGO science run. The results of the search using the first 40 days of the run are described in this paper. Veitch also performed several of the analyses to characterise the physical properties of the detection candidates that are discussed here.
