Benefits of joint LIGO -- Virgo coincidence searches for burst and inspiral signals

F. Beauville, M. -A. Bizouard, L. Blackburn +22

We examine the benefits of performing a joint LIGO--Virgo search for transient signals. We do this by adding burst and inspiral signals to 24 hours of simulated detector data. We f…

A first comparison of search methods for gravitational wave bursts using LIGO and Virgo simulated data

L. Blackburn, F. Beauville, M. -A. Bizouard +20

We present a comparative study of 6 search methods for gravitational wave bursts using simulated LIGO and Virgo noise data. The data's spectra were chosen to follow the design sens…
