Revisiting coincidence rate between Gravitational Wave detection and short Gamma-Ray Burst for the Advanced and third generation

T. Regimbau, K. Siellez, D. Meacher +2

We use realistic Monte-Carlo simulations including both gravitational-wave and short gamma-ray burst selection effects to revisit the coincident rate of binary systems composed of…

Advanced Virgo: a 2nd generation interferometric gravitational wave detector

F. Acernese, M. Agathos, K. Agatsuma +231

Advanced Virgo is the project to upgrade the Virgo interferometric detector of gravitational waves, with the aim of increasing the number of observable galaxies (and thus the detec…

Second Einstein Telescope Mock Science Challenge : Detection of the GW Stochastic Background from Compact Binary Coalescences

T. Regimbau, D. Meacher, M Coughlin

We present the results of the search for an astrophysical gravitational-wave stochastic background during the second Einstein Telescope mock data and science challenge. Assuming th…

Statistical properties of astrophysical gravitational-wave backgrounds

Duncan Meacher, Eric Thrane, Tania Regimbau

We investigate how a stochastic gravitational wave background, produced from a discrete set of astrophysical sources, differs from an idealised model consisting of an isotropic, un…

Reconstruction of the gravitational wave signal during the Virgo science runs and independent validation with a photon calibrator

Virgo collaboration, T. Accadia, F. Acernese +193

The Virgo detector is a kilometer-scale interferometer for gravitational wave detection located near Pisa (Italy). About 13 months of data were accumulated during four science runs…
