Detecting gravitational waves from inspiraling binaries with a network of detectors: Coherent strategies for correlated detectors

Journal Article Tagoshi, Hideyuki ; Mukhopadhyay, Himan ; Dhurandhar, Sanjeev ; ... - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

We discuss the coherent search strategy to detect gravitational waves from inspiraling compact binaries by a network of correlated laser interferometric detectors. From the maximum likelihood ratio statistic, we obtain a coherent statistic which is slightly different from and generally better than what we obtained in our previous work. In the special case when the cross spectrum of two detectors normalized by the power spectrum density is constant, the new statistic agrees with the old one. The quantitative difference of the detection probability for a given false alarm rate is also evaluated in a simple case.

A search for gravitational waves from coalescing binary stars using the Caltech 40 meter gravity wave detector

Thesis/Dissertation Smith, S L

A search for gravitational radiation from coalescing compact binary stars was conducted. This is the first time that the Caltech gravity wave detector has been used to search for burst sources. This detector is made of two 40 meter Fabry-Perot interferometers. The mirrors of the Fabry-Perot cavities are suspended, so that they are free to move in response to a gravity wave. The Caltech detector is a prototype for a set of larger detectors (4 km long cavities). The purpose of this search was to develop techniques applicable to the larger detectors. An algorithm was developed which searches for themore »« less
1. First coincidence experiments between cryogenic resonant-mass gravitational-wave detectors. 2. Development of a thin-film superconducting transducer for a gravitational-wave antenna

Miscellaneous Stevenson, T R

This dissertation is concerned with two aspects of detecting gravitational radiation from astrophysical sources. First, the data collection and analysis for a coincidence experiment conducted in 1986 using gravitational wave detectors operated by Stanford University, the university of Rome, and Louisiana State University are described. This experiment was important for several reasons: (1) it was the first coincidence experiment between cryogenic resonant-mass detectors; (2) it improved the observational upper limit on the flux of impulsive gravitational waves that impinge upon the earth; and (3) it lead to the development of a data analysis method for converting the experimental results intomore »« less

Effect of eccentricity on searches for gravitational waves from coalescing compact binaries in ground-based detectors

Journal Article Brown, Duncan A ; Zimmerman, Peter J - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

Inspiralling compact binaries are expected to circularize before their gravitational-wave signals reach the sensitive frequency band of ground-based detectors. Current searches for gravitational waves from compact binaries using the LIGO and Virgo detectors therefore use circular templates to construct matched filters. Binary formation models have been proposed which suggest that some systems detectable by the LIGO-Virgo network may have non-negligible eccentricity. We investigate the ability of the restricted 3.5 post-Newtonian order TaylorF2 template bank, used by LIGO and Virgo to search for gravitational waves from compact binaries with masses M{<=}35M{sub {center_dot},} to detect binaries with nonzero eccentricity. We model themore »« less
