A search for gravitational waves associated with the August 2006 timing glitch of the Vela pulsar
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, J. Abadie, B. P. Abbott +499
The physical mechanisms responsible for pulsar timing glitches are thought to excite quasi-normal mode oscillations in their parent neutron star that couple to gravitational wave e…
A Bayesian Approach to the Detection Problem in Gravitational Wave Astronomy
Tyson B. Littenberg, Neil J. Cornish
The analysis of data from gravitational wave detectors can be divided into three phases: search, characterization, and evaluation. The evaluation of the detection - determining whe…
Report on the second Mock LISA Data Challenge
Stanislav Babak, John G. Baker, Matthew J. Benacquista +40
The Mock LISA Data Challenges are a program to demonstrate LISA data-analysis capabilities and to encourage their development. Each round of challenges consists of several data set…
LIGO: The Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, B. Abbott
The goal of the Laser Interferometric Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) is to detect and study gravitational waves of astrophysical origin. Direct detection of gravitational wa…
Tests of Bayesian Model Selection Techniques for Gravitational Wave Astronomy
Neil J. Cornish, Tyson B. Littenberg
The analysis of gravitational wave data involves many model selection problems. The most important example is the detection problem of selecting between the data being consistent w…
An overview of the second round of the Mock LISA Data Challenges
K A Arnaud, S Babak, J G Baker +10
The Mock Data Challenges (MLDCs) have the dual purpose of fostering the development of LISA data-analysis tools and capabilities and of demonstrating the technical readiness alread…
