LISA Response Function and Parameter Estimation
نویسندگان
چکیده
We investigate the response function of LISA and consider the adequacy of its commonly used approximation in the high-frequency range of the observational band. We concentrate on monochromatic binary systems, such as white dwarf binaries. We find that above a few mHz the approximation starts becoming increasingly inaccurate. The transfer function introduces additional amplitude and phase modulations in the measured signal that influence parameter estimation and, if not properly accounted for, lead to losses of signal-to-noise ratio. PACS numbers: 04.30.-w, 04.80.Nn, 97.20.Rp, 97.80.-d

The effect of the LISA response function on observations of monochromatic sources
The Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) is expected to provide the largest observational sample of binary systems of faint sub-solar mass compact objects, in particular white-dwarfs, whose radiation is monochromatic over most of the LISA observational window. Current astrophysical estimates suggest that the instrument will be able to resolve ∼ 10 such systems, with a large fraction of the...
متن کاملESTIMATION OF SCALE PARAMETER UNDER A REFLECTED GAMMA LOSS FUNCTION
In this paper, the estimation of a scale parameter t under a new and bounded loss function, based on a reflection of the gamma density function, is discussed. The best scale-invariant estimator of tis obtained and the admissibility of all linear functions of the sufficient statistic, for estimating t in the absence of a nuisance parameter, is investigated
متن کاملE-Bayesian Approach in A Shrinkage Estimation of Parameter of Inverse Rayleigh Distribution under General Entropy Loss Function
Whenever approximate and initial information about the unknown parameter of a distribution is available, the shrinkage estimation method can be used to estimate it. In this paper, first the $ E $-Bayesian estimation of the parameter of inverse Rayleigh distribution under the general entropy loss function is obtained. Then, the shrinkage estimate of the inverse Rayleigh distribution parameter i...
متن کاملGenetic parameters estimation of growth in Salmo trutta caspius as a function of body weight and Length
There is no available adequate information on the biology and genetics of the Caspian salmon (salmo truta Caspiu) living in the Caspian Sea with other species such as common carp families, sturgeons and etc., therefore we are interested in knowing whether selection for rapid growth rate in salmo trutta Caspius will potentially lead to correlated genetic response in body weight and length. The...
متن کاملEstimation of Scale Parameter Under a Bounded Loss Function
The quadratic loss function has been used by decision-theoretic statisticians and economists for many years. In this paper the estimation of scale parameter under a bounded loss function, which is adequate for assessing quality and quality improvement, is considered with restriction to the principles of invariance and risk unbiasedness. An implicit form of minimum risk scale equivariant ...
