Coherent follow-up of Continuous Gravitational Wave candidates: minimal required observation time
arXiv:1201.4656 · doi:10.1088/1742-6596/363/1/012043
Abstract
We derive two different methods to compute the minimal required integration time of a fully coherent follow-up of candidates produced in wide parameter space semi-coherent searches, such as global correlation StackSlide searches using Einstein@Home. We numerically compare these methods in terms of integration duration and computing cost. In a Monte Carlo study we confirm that we can achieve the required detection probability.
