Data analysis of gravitational-wave signals from spinning neutron stars. I. The signal and its detection
We present a theoretical background for the data analysis of the gravitational-wave signals from spinning neutron stars for Earth-based laser interferometric detectors. We introduce a detailed model of the signal including both the frequency and the amplitude modulations. We include the effects of the intrinsic frequency changes and the modulation of the frequency at the detector due to the Ear...
متن کاملData analysis of gravitational-wave signals from spinning neutron stars. II. Accuracy of estimation of parameters
We examine the accuracy of estimation of parameters of the gravitational-wave signals from spinning neutron stars that can be achieved from observations by Earth-based laser interferometers. We consider a model of the signal consisting of two narrowband components and including both phase and amplitude modulation. We calculate approximate values of the rms errors of the parameter estimators usi...
متن کاملGravitational Waves from Spinning Neutron Stars
This paper gives an introductory overview of the search for continuous gravitational waves from spinning neutron stars. We review the current theoretical understanding of possible emission mechanisms and the expected strength of signals received on Earth. Given the substantial uncertainties involved in neutron star physics, these searches — if sufficiently sensitive — can provide important new ...

متن کاملParameter choices and ranges for continuous gravitational wave searches for steadily spinning neutron stars
We consider the issue of selecting parameters and their associated ranges for carrying out searches for continuous gravitational waves from steadily rotating neutron stars. We consider three different cases: (i) the ‘classic’ case of a star spinning about a principal axis; (ii) a biaxial star, not spinning about a principal axis; (iii) a triaxial star spinning steady, but not about a principal ...
