LOCALIZATION OF SHORT DURATION GRAVITATIONAL- WAVE TRANSIENTS WITH THE EARLY ADVANCED LIGO AND VIRGO DETECTORS Citation
The Laser Interferometer Gravitational wave Observatory (LIGO) and Virgo advanced ground-based gravitationalwave detectors will begin collecting science data in 2015. With first detections expected to follow, it is important to quantify how well generic gravitational-wave transients can be localized on the sky. This is crucial for correctly identifying electromagnetic counterparts as well as un...
متن کاملFirst low-frequency Einstein@Home all-sky search for continuous gravitational waves in Advanced LIGO data
We report results of a deep all-sky search for periodic gravitational waves from isolated neutron stars in data from the first Advanced LIGO observing run. This search investigates the low frequency range of Advanced LIGO data, between 20 and 100 Hz, much of which was not explored in initial LIGO. The search was made possible by the computing power provided by the volunteers of the Einstein@Hom...
متن کاملHow to find long narrow-band gravitational wave transients with unknown frequency evolution?
We present two general methods, the so-called Locust and the generalized Hough algorithm, to search for narrow-band signals of moderate frequency evolution and limited duration in datastreams of gravitational wave detectors. Some models of long gamma ray bursts (e.g. van Putten, 2004) predict narrow-band gravitational wave burst signals of limited duration emitted during the gamma ray burst eve...
متن کاملPan-STARRS and PESSTO search for an optical counterpart to the LIGO gravitational-wave source GW150914
We searched for an optical counterpart to the first gravitational-wave source discovered by LIGO (GW150914), using a combination of the Pan-STARRS1 wide-field telescope and the Public ESO Spectroscopic Survey of Transient Objects (PESSTO) spectroscopic follow-up programme. As the final LIGO sky maps changed during analysis, the total probability of the source being spatially coincident with our...
متن کاملOn the independent points in the sky for the search of periodic gravitational wave
We investigate the independent points in the sky require to search the periodic gravitational wave, assuming the noise power spectral density to be flat. We have made an analysis with different initial azimuth of the Earth for a week data set. The analysis shows significant difference in the independent points in the sky for the search. We numerically obtain an approximate relation to make trad...
