SGNAX: a unified matched-filter and excess-power pipeline for gravitational-wave detector characterization
Zach Yarbrough, Olivia Godwin, Derek Davis +1
We present SGNAX, an open-source pipeline for gravitational-wave detector characterization that delivers matched-filter and excess-power transient triggers from a single streaming…
Rapid data quality investigations of gravitational-wave events with the Data Quality Report Builder toolkit
Derek Davis, Zach Yarbrough, Joseph Areeda +30
We present the Data Quality Report Builder toolkit, DQRbuild, a suite of data quality tools that have been developed to vet gravitational-wave events in preparation for the fourth…
Coalescing Compact Binary Parameter Estimation with Gravitational Waves in the Presence of non-Gaussian Transient Noise
Yannick Lecoeuche, Jess McIver, Alan M. Knee +7
Data from gravitational-wave (GW) detectors often contains a high rate of non-Gaussian transient noise, known as glitches. The parameters estimated from GW signals coinciding with…
OmegaNeuron: Applying GravitySpy Similarity Methods to the Search for LIGO Glitch Witnesses
Bri Aleman, Derek Davis
Gravitational-wave (GW) astronomy has advanced our understanding of compact mergers through instruments like the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO). However…
Guiding interferometer improvements with the frequency-dependent inspiral range
Derek Davis, Elenna Capote
The inspiral range is the most common metric for characterizing the performance of ground-based gravitational-wave interferometers. However, there is no clear formalism for working…
