- Author contribution statement
- I was responsible for the conceptual framework for potential discoveries in the second observing run of the LIGO observatories. I was a primary member of the writing team for this paper: I led investigations of the discovery and coordinated diverse activities of the wider collaboration in producing, validating and documenting results. I had primary responsibility for the sections on parameter estimation (where I led the analysis to infer the source properties) and astrophysical implications and contributed to the writing and editing of the entire paper.
