Method to get Better Sky Maps in a GstLAL Low-Latency Analysis

Prathamesh Joshi, Becca Ewing, Chad Hanna +40

Modeled gravitational wave searches correlate the strain data with a bank of gravitational wave template waveforms to make detections of gravitational wave candidates, and these re…

GstLAL O4 Online Results Paper

Shomik Adhicary, Pratyusava Baral, Amanda Baylor +39

Gravitational-wave observations of merging binary neutron stars and black holes are now routinely made by detectors in the Advanced LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA network. Neutron star binary sy…

New Methods for Offline GstLAL Analyses

Prathamesh Joshi, Leo Tsukada, Chad Hanna +38

In this work, we present new methods implemented in the GstLAL offline gravitational wave search. These include a technique to reuse the matched filtering data products from a GstL…

Ameliorating transient noise bursts in gravitational-wave searches for intermediate-mass black holes

Melissa Lopez, Giada Caneva, Ana Martins +5

The direct observation of intermediate-mass black holes (IMBH) populations would not only strengthen the possible evolutionary link between stellar and supermassive black holes, bu…

Template bank for sub solar mass compact binary mergers in the fourth observing run of Advanced LIGO, Advanced Virgo, and KAGRA

Chad Hanna, James Kennington, Wanting Niu +38

Matched-filtering searches for gravitational-wave signals from compact binary mergers employ template banks which are a collection of modeled waveforms described by unique intrinsi…

Searching for asymmetric and heavily precessing Binary Black Holes in the gravitational wave data from the LIGO and Virgo third Observing Run

Stefano Schmidt, Sarah Caudill, Jolien D. E. Creighton +37

Leveraging the features of the GstLAL pipeline, we present the results of a matched filtering search for asymmetric binary black hole systems with heavily misaligned spins in LIGO…
