摘要：

Gravitational waves emitted by asymmetric rotating neutron stars are the primary targets of continuous gravitational-wave searches. Neutron stars in binary systems are particularly interesting due to the potential for nonaxisymmetric deformations induced by a companion star. However, all-sky searches for unknown neutron stars in binary systems are very computationally expensive, and this limits their sensitivity and/or breadth. In this paper we present results of a search for signals with gravitational-wave frequencies between 50 and 150 Hz, from systems with orbital periods between 100 and 1000 days and projected semimajor axes between 40 and 200 lt-s. This parameter space region has never been directly searched before. We do not detect any signal, and our results exclude gravitational-wave amplitudes above 1.25 x 10-25 at 144.32 Hz with 95% confidence. Our improved search pipeline is more sensitive than any previous all-sky binary search by about 75%.
