Alternative neural-network follow-up for all-sky FrequencyHough in continuous gravitational-wave searches

Martina Di Cesare, Pia Astone, Rosario De Rosa +3

Continuous gravitational waves are long-lived signals emitted by spinning neutron stars (NSs) or boson clouds around black holes. While the Milky Way is expected to host $\mathrm{O…

The impact of seasonality over the sensitivity of Einstein Telescope and the SNR of CBC signals at the Sardinia candidate site

Matteo Di Giovanni, Davide Rozza, Giovanni Diaferia +14

This work presents the first investigation of the impact of seasonal variations in seismic noise on the low-frequency performance of the Einstein Telescope (ET) at the Sardinia can…

Investigating all-sky Frequency Hough performances for neutron stars

Martina Di Cesare, Pia Astone, Rosario De Rosa +3

Between the estimated population of Neutron Stars (NSs) and the actual number present in the catalogs, there is a huge gap: O(10) vs O(10). Among the different search t…

GW230814: investigation of a loud gravitational-wave signal observed with a single detector

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, The Virgo Collaboration, The Kagra Collaboration +1783

GW230814, detected by the LIGO Livingston observatory with a signal-to-noise ratio of 42.4, represents the loudest gravitational-wave signal in the GWTC-4.0 catalog. Its source is…
