First joint Gravitational Waves search by the Auriga-Explorer-Nautilus-Virgo collaboration
Virgo collaboration
We present results of the search for coincident burst excitations over a 24 hours long data set collected by AURIGA, EXPLORER, NAUTILUS and Virgo detectors during September 2005. T…
Periodic Gravitational Waves From Small Cosmic String Loops
Florian Dubath, Jorge V. Rocha
We consider a population of small, high-velocity cosmic string loops. We assume the typical length of these loops is determined by the gravitational radiation scale and use the res…
Scattering of cosmic strings by black holes: loop formation
Florian Dubath, Mairi Sakellariadou, Claude Michel Viallet
We study the deformation of a long cosmic string by a nearby rotating black hole. We examine whether the deformation of a cosmic string, induced by the gravitational field of a Ker…
On the Sensitivity of a Hollow Sphere as a Multi-modal Resonant Gravitational Wave Detector
Florian Dubath, Jerome Extermann, Luciano Gottardi
We present a numerical analysis to simulate the response of a spherical resonant gravitational wave detector and to compute its sensitivity. Under the assump- tion of optimal filte…
Matched filter for multi-transducers resonant GW antennas
Maria Alice Gasparini, Florian Dubath
We analyze two kinds of matched filters for data output of a spherical resonant GW detector. In order to filter the data of a real sphere, a strategy is proposed, firstly using an…
Upper limits on the gravitational mass loss of the Galaxy and the LIGO burst searches
Florian Dubath, Michele Maggiore
We discuss the relevance, for the search of gravitational-wave bursts, of upper limits on the total mass loss of the Galaxy which come from various astronomical observations. For s…
