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…

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…

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…

Improving the background estimation technique in the GstLAL inspiral pipeline with the time-reversed template bank

Chiwai Chan, Kipp Cannon, Sarah Caudill +20

Background estimation is important for determining the statistical significance of a gravitational-wave event. Currently, the background model is constructed numerically from the s…

Template bank for spinning compact binary mergers in the second observation run of Advanced LIGO and the first observation run of Advanced Virgo

Debnandini Mukherjee, Sarah Caudill, Ryan Magee +25

We describe the methods used to construct the aligned-spin template bank of gravitational waveforms used by the GstLAL-based inspiral pipeline to analyze data from the second obser…

Methods for the detection of gravitational waves from sub-solar mass ultracompact binaries

Ryan Magee, Anne-Sylvie Deutsch, Phoebe McClincy +6

We describe detection methods for extensions of gravitational wave searches to sub-solar mass compact binaries. Sub-solar mass searches were previously carried out using Initial LI…

Analysis Framework for the Prompt Discovery of Compact Binary Mergers in Gravitational-wave Data

Cody Messick, Kent Blackburn, Patrick Brady +24

We describe a stream-based analysis pipeline to detect gravitational waves from the merger of binary neutron stars, binary black holes, and neutron-star-black-hole binaries within…
