Correlation of Gravitational Wave Background Noises and Statistical Loss for Angular Averaged Sensitivity Curves
arXiv:2108.12930 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.104.063025
Abstract
Gravitational wave backgrounds generate correlated noises to separated detectors. This correlation can induce statistical losses to actual detector networks, compared with idealized noise-independent networks. Assuming that the backgrounds are isotropic, we examine the statistical losses specifically for the angular averaged sensitivity curves, and derive simple expressions that depend on the overlap reduction functions and the strength of the background noises relative to the instrumental noises. For future triangular interferometers such as ET and LISA, we also discuss preferred network geometries to suppress the potential statistical losses.
