GW070605: An Undisclosed Binary Neutron Star Hardware Injection in LIGO's Fifth Science Run
Heather Fong, Kipp Cannon, Chi-Wai Chan +7
The authors wished to document the sensitivity improvement that has been contributed to the GW detection rate by detection algorithm research and development efforts, and set about…
A binary tree approach to template placement for searches for gravitational waves from compact binary mergers
Chad Hanna, James Kennington, Shio Sakon +30
We demonstrate a new geometric method for fast template placement for searches for gravitational waves from the inspiral, merger and ringdown of compact binaries. The method is bas…
Metric Assisted Stochastic Sampling (MASS) search for gravitational waves from binary black hole mergers
Chad Hanna, Prathamesh Joshi, Rachael Huxford +29
We present a novel gravitational wave detection algorithm that conducts a matched filter search stochastically across the compact binary parameter space rather than relying on a fi…
Automating the Inclusion of Subthreshold Signal-to-Noise Ratios for Rapid Gravitational-Wave Localization
Cody Messick, Surabhi Sachdev, Kipp Cannon +29
The accurate localization of gravitational-wave (GW) events in low-latency is a crucial element in the search for further multimessenger signals from these cataclysmic events. The…
Incorporation of Statistical Data Quality Information into the GstLAL Search Analysis
Patrick Godwin, Reed Essick, Chad Hanna +20
We present updates to GstLAL, a matched filter gravitational-wave search pipeline, in Advanced LIGO and Virgo's third observing run. We discuss the incorporation of statistical dat…
GstLAL: A software framework for gravitational wave discovery
Kipp Cannon, Sarah Caudill, Chiwai Chan +28
The GstLAL library, derived from Gstreamer and the LIGO Algorithm Library, supports a stream-based approach to gravitational-wave data processing. Although GstLAL was primarily des…
An early warning system for electromagnetic follow-up of gravitational-wave events
Surabhi Sachdev, Ryan Magee, Chad Hanna +28
Binary neutron stars (BNSs) will spend -- 15 minutes in the band of Advanced LIGO and Virgo detectors at design sensitivity. Matched-filtering of gravitational-wave (GW…
Improving the background estimation technique in the GstLAL inspiral pipeline with the time-reversed template bank
Chiwai Chan, Kipp Cannon, Sarah Caudill +20
Background estimation is important for determining the statistical significance of a gravitational-wave event. Currently, the background model is constructed numerically from the s…
Overview of KAGRA : KAGRA science
KAGRA Collaboration, T. Akutsu, M. Ando +240
KAGRA is a newly build gravitational-wave observatory, a laser interferometer with 3 km arm length, located in Kamioka, Gifu, Japan. In this paper in the series of KAGRA-featured a…
