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…
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…
Technical Noise, Data Quality, and Calibration Requirements for Next-Generation Gravitational-Wave Science
Elenna Capote, Louis Dartez, Derek Davis
The next generation of ground-based gravitational-wave interferometers is expected to generate a bounty of new astrophysical discoveries, with sensitivities and bandwidths greatly…
