Searching for gravitational waves from binary coalescence
S. Babak, R. Biswas, P. R. Brady +25
We describe the implementation of a search for gravitational waves from compact binary coalescences in LIGO and Virgo data. This all-sky, all-time, multi-detector search for binary…
Template banks to search for compact binaries with spinning components in gravitational wave data
Chris Van Den Broeck, Duncan A. Brown, Thomas Cokelaer +5
Gravitational waves from coalescing compact binaries are one of the most promising sources for detectors such as LIGO, Virgo and GEO600. If the components of the binary posess sign…
Searching for gravitational-wave signals emitted by eccentric compact binaries using a non-eccentric template bank: implications for ground-based detectors
T Cokelaer, D Pathak
Most of the inspiralling compact binaries are expected to be circularized by the time their gravitational-wave signals enter the frequency band of ground-based detectors such as LI…
First joint search for gravitational-wave bursts in LIGO and GEO600 data
LIGO Scientific Collaboration, B. Abbott
We present the results of the first joint search for gravitational-wave bursts by the LIGO and GEO600 detectors. We search for bursts with characteristic central frequencies in the…
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…
A template bank to search for gravitational waves from inspiralling compact binaries: II. Phenomenological model
Thomas Cokelaer
Matched filtering is used to search for gravitational waves emitted by inspiralling compact binaries in data from ground-based interferometers. One of the key aspects of the detect…
