LIGO A: Detector Design and Science Prospects Beyond A+
L. Sun, K. Kuns, B. J. J. Slagmolen +1153
We present the LIGO A detector concept, an upgrade for the LIGO observatories based on room-temperature interferometers beyond the fifth observing run (O5). Building on th…
Improved ranking statistics of the GstLAL inspiral search for compact binary coalescences
Leo Tsukada, Prathamesh Joshi, Shomik Adhicary +37
Starting from May 2023, the LIGO Scientific, Virgo and KAGRA Collaboration is planning to conduct the fourth observing run with improved detector sensitivities and an expanded dete…
Performance of the KAGRA detector during the first joint observation with GEO 600 (O3GK)
KAGRA Collaboration, H. Abe, R. X. Adhikari +212
KAGRA, the kilometer-scale underground gravitational-wave detector, is located at Kamioka, Japan. In April 2020, an astrophysics observation was performed at the KAGRA detector in…
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…
Improving astrophysical parameter estimation via offline noise subtraction for Advanced LIGO
J. C. Driggers, S. Vitale, A. P. Lundgren +228
The Advanced LIGO detectors have recently completed their second observation run successfully. The run lasted for approximately 10 months and lead to multiple new discoveries. The…
Calibrating CHIME, A New Radio Interferometer to Probe Dark Energy
Laura B. Newburgh, Graeme E. Addison, Mandana Amiri +32
The Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME) is a transit interferometer currently being built at the Dominion Radio Astrophysical Observatory (DRAO) in Penticton, BC…
