Deep-Learning Continuous Gravitational Waves: Multiple detectors and realistic noise

Christoph Dreissigacker, Reinhard Prix

The sensitivity of wide-parameter-space searches for continuous gravitational waves is limited by computational cost. Recently it was shown that Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) can per…

Acoustic Waves in Granular Packings at Low Confinement Pressure

Karsten Tell, Christoph Dreißigacker, Alberto Chiengue Tchapnda +2

Elastic properties of a granular packing show nonlinear behavior determined by its discrete structure and nonlinear inter-grain force laws. Acoustic waves show a transition from co…

Deep-Learning continuous gravitational waves

Christoph Dreissigacker, Rahul Sharma, Chris Messenger +2

We present a first proof-of-principle study for using deep neural networks (DNNs) as a novel search method for continuous gravitational waves (CWs) from unknown spinning neutron st…

A Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor Search for Electromagnetic Signals Coincident with Gravitational-Wave Candidates in Advanced LIGO's First Observing Run

ray Burst Monitor Team, The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration +1160

We present a search for prompt gamma-ray counterparts to compact binary coalescence gravitational wave (GW) candidates from Advanced LIGO's first observing run (O1). As demonstrate…

Search for gravitational waves from a long-lived remnant of the binary neutron star merger GW170817

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, B. P. Abbott +1138

One unanswered question about the binary neutron star coalescence GW170817 is the nature of its post-merger remnant. A previous search for post-merger gravitational waves targeted…
