Coherent injection of magnetic noise and its impact on gravitational-wave searches
Kamiel Janssens, Jessica Lawrence, Anamaria Effler +11
Correlated noise sources, particularly magnetic noise, form a risk to future gravitational-wave searches aimed at detecting the gravitational-wave background. Potential noise conta…
