A binary tree approach to template placement for searches for gravitational waves from compact binary mergers

Chad Hanna, James Kennington, Shio Sakon +30

We demonstrate a new geometric method for fast template placement for searches for gravitational waves from the inspiral, merger and ringdown of compact binaries. The method is bas…

First demonstration of early warning gravitational wave alerts

Ryan Magee, Deep Chatterjee, Leo P. Singer +33

Gravitational-wave observations became commonplace in Advanced LIGO-Virgo's recently concluded third observing run. 56 non-retracted candidates were identified and publicly announc…

Automating the Inclusion of Subthreshold Signal-to-Noise Ratios for Rapid Gravitational-Wave Localization

Cody Messick, Surabhi Sachdev, Kipp Cannon +29

The accurate localization of gravitational-wave (GW) events in low-latency is a crucial element in the search for further multimessenger signals from these cataclysmic events. The…

Incorporation of Statistical Data Quality Information into the GstLAL Search Analysis

Patrick Godwin, Reed Essick, Chad Hanna +20

We present updates to GstLAL, a matched filter gravitational-wave search pipeline, in Advanced LIGO and Virgo's third observing run. We discuss the incorporation of statistical dat…

GstLAL: A software framework for gravitational wave discovery

Kipp Cannon, Sarah Caudill, Chiwai Chan +28

The GstLAL library, derived from Gstreamer and the LIGO Algorithm Library, supports a stream-based approach to gravitational-wave data processing. Although GstLAL was primarily des…

An early warning system for electromagnetic follow-up of gravitational-wave events

Surabhi Sachdev, Ryan Magee, Chad Hanna +28

Binary neutron stars (BNSs) will spend -- 15 minutes in the band of Advanced LIGO and Virgo detectors at design sensitivity. Matched-filtering of gravitational-wave (GW…
