Application of the independent component analysis to the iKAGRA data

KAGRA Collaboration, T. Akutsu, M. Ando +244

We apply the independent component analysis (ICA) to the real data from a gravitational wave detector for the first time. Specifically we use the iKAGRA data taken in April 2016, a…

First cryogenic test operation of underground km-scale gravitational-wave observatory KAGRA

KAGRA Collaboration, T. Akutsu, M. Ando +198

KAGRA is a second-generation interferometric gravitational-wave detector with 3-km arms constructed at Kamioka, Gifu in Japan. It is now in its final installation phase, which we c…

Estimation of starting times of quasinormal modes in ringdown gravitational waves with the Hilbert-Huang transform

Kazuki Sakai, Ken-ichi Oohara, Hiroyuki Nakano +2

It is known that a quasinormal mode (QNM) of a remnant black hole dominates a ringdown gravitational wave (GW) in a binary black hole (BBH) merger. To study properties of the QNMs,…

Optimal follow-up observations of gravitational wave events with small optical telescopes

Tatsuya Narikawa, Masato Kaneyama, Hideyuki Tagoshi

We discuss optimal strategy for follow-up observations by 1-3 m class optical/infrared telescopes which target optical/infrared counterparts of gravitational wave events detected w…

Amplitude-based detection method for gravitational wave bursts with the Hilbert-Huang Transform

Kazuki Sakai, Ken-ichi Oohara, Masato Kaneyama +1

We propose a new detection method for gravitational wave bursts. It analyzes observed data with the Hilbert-Huang transform, which is an approach of time-frequency analysis constru…

On Investigating EMD Parameters to Search for Gravitational Waves

Hirotaka Takahashi, Ken-ichi Oohara, Masato Kaneyama +2

The Hilbert-Huang transform (HHT) is a novel, adaptive approach to time series analysis. It does not impose a basis set on the data or otherwise make assumptions about the data for…

Prospects for Observing and Localizing Gravitational-Wave Transients with Advanced LIGO, Advanced Virgo and KAGRA

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, the KAGRA Collaboration +1319

We present our current best estimate of the plausible observing scenarios for the Advanced LIGO, Advanced Virgo and KAGRA gravitational-wave detectors over the next several years,…
