Multivariate Classification with Random Forests for Gravitational Wave Searches of Black Hole Binary Coalescence

Paul T. Baker, Sarah Caudill, Kari A. Hodge +3

Searches for gravitational waves produced by coalescing black hole binaries with total masses M use matched filtering with templates of short duration. Non-Gau…

A directed search for gravitational waves from Scorpius X-1 with initial LIGO

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Aasi +891

We present results of a search for continuously-emitted gravitational radiation, directed at the brightest low-mass X-ray binary, Scorpius X-1. Our semi-coherent analysis covers 10…

Narrow-band search of continuous gravitational-wave signals from Crab and Vela pulsars in Virgo VSR4 data

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Aasi +894

In this paper we present the results of a coherent narrow-band search for continuous gravitational-wave signals from the Crab and Vela pulsars conducted on Virgo VSR4 data. In orde…

BayesLine: Bayesian Inference for Spectral Estimation of Gravitational Wave Detector Noise

Tyson B. Littenberg, Neil J. Cornish

Gravitational wave data from ground-based detectors is dominated by instrument noise. Signals will be comparatively weak, and our understanding of the noise will influence detectio…

Searching for stochastic gravitational waves using data from the two co-located LIGO Hanford detectors

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, J. Aasi +873

Searches for a stochastic gravitational-wave background (SGWB) using terrestrial detectors typically involve cross-correlating data from pairs of detectors. The sensitivity of such…
