First Search for Nontensorial Gravitational Waves from Known Pulsars.
We present results from the first directed search for nontensorial gravitational waves. While general relativity allows for tensorial (plus and cross) modes only, a generic metric theory may, in principle, predict waves with up to six different polarizations. This analysis is sensitive to continuous signals of scalar, vector, or tensor polarizations, and does not rely on any specific theory of ...
متن کاملEstimation of Parameters of Gravitational Waves from Pulsars
Pulsars are one of the primary sources of gravitational-waves that can be observed by detectors that are currently under construction . The data analysis involved to do the search for such sources implies a very heavy computational cost . Here we analyse this problem using a simple model of the gravitational-wave signal from a pulsar. A detailed summary of the current understanding of the gravi...
متن کاملPulsars revived by gravitational waves
Binary neutron stars mergers that are expected to be the most powerful source of energy in the Universe definitely exist in nature, as is proven by the observed behavior of the Hulse-Taylor binary radio pulsar (Hulse, Taylor, 1975). Though most of energy in such events is radiated in gravitational waves, there probably exist several mechanisms giving also electromagnetic radiation. We propose a...
متن کاملSearching for gravitational waves from known pulsars
We present upper limits on the amplitude of gravitational waves from 28 isolated pulsars using data from the second science run of LIGO. The results are also expressed as a constraint on the pulsars’ equatorial ellipticities. We discuss a new way of presenting such ellipticity upper limits that takes account of the uncertainties of the pulsar moment of inertia. We also extend our previous metho...
متن کاملOn Investigating EMD parameters to Search for Gravitational Waves
The Hilbert-Huang transform (HHT) is a novel, adaptive approach to time series analysis. It does not impose a basis set on the data or otherwise make assumptions about the data form, and so the time–frequency decomposition is not limited by spreading due to uncertainty. Because of the high resolution of the time–frequency, we investigate the possibility of the application of the HHT to the sear...
