A coherent method for detection of gravitational wave bursts
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe a coherent network algorithm for detection and reconstruction of gravitational wave bursts. The algorithm works for two and more arbitrarily aligned detectors and can be used for both all-sky and triggered burst searches. We describe the main components of the algorithm, including the timefrequency analysis in a wavelet domain, construction of the likelihood timefrequency maps, and identification and selection of burst events.

متن کاملModeling the Impulsive Noise Component and its Effect on the Operation of a Simple Coherent Network Algorithm for Unmodeled Gravitational Wave Bursts Detection
An analytic model á la Middleton of the impulsive noise component in the data of interferometric gravitational wave detectors is proposed, based on an atomic representation of glitches. A fully analytic characterization of the coherent network data analysis algorithm proposed by Rakhmanov and Klimenko is obtained, for the simplest relevant case of triggered detection of unmodeled gravitational ...
متن کاملRank deficiency and Tikhonov regularization in the inverse problem for gravitational - wave bursts
Coherent techniques for searches of gravitational-wave bursts effectively combine data from several detectors, taking into account differences in their responses. The efforts are now focused on the maximum likelihood principle as the most natural way to combine data, which can also be used without prior knowledge of the signal. Recent studies however have shown that straightforward application ...
متن کاملSparse sky grid for the coherent detection of gravitational wave bursts
The gravitational wave detectors currently in operation perform the analysis of their scientific data jointly. Concerning the search for bursting sources, coherent data analysis methods have been shown to be more efficient. In the coherent approach, the data collected by the detectors are time-shifted and linearly combined so that the signatures received by each detector add up constructively (...
متن کاملSearching for Gravitational-Wave Bursts with LIGO
We present recent results from searches by the LIGO Science Collaboration for bursts of gravitational-wave radiation, as well as the status of other ongoing searches. These include directed searches for bursts associated with observed sources (gamma-ray bursts, soft gamma repeaters) and untriggered searches for bursts from unknown sources. We also present the status of some newer investigations...
