Placement of templates technique in a 2D parameter space for binary inspiral searches
نویسندگان
چکیده
In the search for binary systems inspiral signal in interferometric gravitational waves detectors, one needs the generation and placement of a grid of templates. We present an original technique for the placement in the associated parameter space, that makes use of the variation of size of the isomatch ellipses in order to reduce the number of templates necessary to cover the parameter space. A study of the covering efficiency, as well as a comparison with a very simple regular tiling using a single ellipse is made.

متن کاملOverview of LIGO Scientific Collaboration inspiral searches
We describe the effort of inspiral searches with LIGO data from the third and fourth science runs, which took place in 2003/2004 and 2005, respectively. Although the analysis pipeline is the same for all searches, there are significant differences between the three major ongoing searches: for primordial black hole binaries, binary neutron stars and binary black holes. The horizon distance for a...
متن کاملSearching for binary coalescences with inspiral templates: Detection and parameter estimation
There has been remarkable progress in numerical relativity recently. This has led to the generation of gravitational waveform signals covering what has been traditionally termed the three phases of the coalescence of a compact binary the inspiral, merger and ringdown. In this paper, we examine the usefulness of inspiral only templates for both detection and parameter estimation of the full coal...
متن کاملMethod to estimate ISCO and ring-down frequencies in binary systems and consequences for gravitational wave data analysis
Recent advances in the description of compact binary systems have produced gravitational waveforms that include inspiral, merger and ring-down phases. Comparing results from numerical simulations with those of post-Newtonian (PN), and related, expansions has provided motivation for employing PN waveforms in near merger epochs when searching for gravitational waves and has encouraged the develop...
متن کاملA method for estimating time–frequency characteristics of compact binary mergers to improve searches for inspiral, merger and ring-down phases separately
Recent advances in the description of compact binary systems have produced gravitational waveforms that include inspiral, merger and ring-down phases. Comparing results from numerical simulations with those of post-Newtonian, and related, expansions has provided motivation for employing post-Newtonian waveforms in near merger epochs when searching for gravitational waves and has encouraged the ...
