An Optically Targeted Search for Gravitational Waves emitted by Core-Collapse Supernovae during the Third Observing Run of Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo

Marek J. Szczepańczyk, Yanyan Zheng, Javier M. Antelis +35

We present the results from a search for gravitational-wave transients associated with core-collapse supernovae observed optically within 30 Mpc during the third observing run of A…

Wavescan: Multiresolution Time-Frequency Transform of Gravitational-Wave Data

Sergey Klimenko

Identifying transient signals embedded in non-stationary noise requires analyzing the time-dependent spectral components of the observed time series. The time-frequency distributio…

Detection of LIGO-Virgo binary black holes in the pair-instability mass gap

Brendan O'Brien, Marek Szczepanczyk, V. Gayathri +5

By probing the population of binary black hole (BBH) mergers detected by LIGO-Virgo, we can infer properties about the underlying black hole formation channels. A mechanism known a…

Optimization of model independent gravitational wave search using machine learning

Tanmaya Mishra, Brendan O'Brien, V. Gayathri +4

The Coherent WaveBurst (cWB) search algorithm identifies generic gravitational wave (GW) signals in the LIGO-Virgo strain data. We propose a machine learning (ML) method to optimiz…

Detecting and reconstructing gravitational waves from the next Galactic core-collapse supernova in the Advanced Detector Era

Marek Szczepanczyk, Javier Antelis, Michael Benjamin +17

We performed a detailed analysis of the detectability of a wide range of gravitational waves derived from core-collapse supernova simulations using gravitational-wave detector nois…
