Adaptive algorithms for low-latency cancellation of seismic Newtonian-noise at the Virgo gravitational-wave detector

Soumen Koley, Jan Harms, Annalisa Allocca +23

A system was recently implemented in the Virgo detector to cancel noise in its data produced by seismic waves directly coupling with the suspended test masses through gravitational…

Design and implementation of a seismic Newtonian-noise cancellation system for the Virgo gravitational-wave detector

Soumen Koley, Jan Harms, Annalisa Allocca +23

Terrestrial gravity perturbations caused by seismic fields produce the so-called Newtonian noise in gravitational-wave detectors, which is predicted to limit their sensitivity in t…

Joint Optimization of seismometer arrays for the cancellation of Newtonian noise from seismic body waves in the Einstein Telescope

Francesca Badaracco, Jan Harms, Luca Rei

Seismic Newtonian noise is predicted to limit the sensitivity of the Einstein Telescope. It can be reduced with coherent noise cancellation techniques using data from seismometers.…

Machine learning for gravitational-wave detection: surrogate Wiener filtering for the prediction and optimized cancellation of Newtonian noise at Virgo

F Badaracco, J Harms, A Bertolini +9

The cancellation of noise from terrestrial gravity fluctuations, also known as Newtonian noise (NN), in gravitational-wave detectors is a formidable challenge. Gravity fluctuations…

All-sky search for continuous gravitational waves from isolated neutron stars using Advanced LIGO O2 data

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1130

We present results of an all-sky search for continuous gravitational waves (CWs), which can be produced by fast-spinning neutron stars with an asymmetry around their rotation axis,…

A standard siren measurement of the Hubble constant from GW170817 without the electromagnetic counterpart

M. Fishbach, R. Gray, I. Magaña Hernandez +316

We perform a statistical standard siren analysis of GW170817. Our analysis does not utilize knowledge of NGC 4993 as the unique host galaxy of the optical counterpart to GW170817.…
