Supplementing rapid Bayesian parameter estimation schemes with adaptive grids

Caitlin A. Rose, Vinaya Valsan, Patrick R. Brady +2

In the age of multi-messenger astrophysics, low-latency parameter estimation of gravitational-wave signals is essential for electromagnetic follow-up observations. In this paper, w…

Einstein@Home all-sky search for continuous gravitational waves in LIGO O2 public data

B. Steltner, M. A. Papa, H. -B. Eggenstein +7

We conduct an all-sky search for continuous gravitational waves in the LIGO O2 data from the Hanford and Livingston detectors. We search for nearly-monochromatic signals with frequ…

Optimising the choice of analysis method for all-sky searches for continuous gravitational waves with Einstein@Home

Sinead Walsh, Karl Wette, Maria Alessandra Papa +1

Rapidly rotating neutron stars are promising sources of continuous gravitational waves for the LIGO and Virgo observatories. The majority of neutron stars in our galaxy have not be…

Implementing a semicoherent search for continuous gravitational waves using optimally-constructed template banks

K. Wette, S. Walsh, R. Prix +1

All-sky surveys for isolated continuous gravitational waves present a significant data-analysis challenge. Semicoherent search methods are commonly used to efficiently perform the…

A new veto for continuous gravitational wave searches

Sylvia J. Zhu, Maria Alessandra Papa, Sinéad Walsh

We present a new veto procedure to distinguish between continuous gravitational wave (CW) signals and the detector artifacts that can mimic their behavior. The veto procedure explo…

Adaptive clustering procedure for continuous gravitational wave searches

Avneet Singh, Maria Alessandra Papa, Heinz-Bernd Eggenstein +1

In hierarchical searches for continuous gravitational waves, clustering of candidates is an important postprocessing step because it reduces the number of noise candidates that are…
