Development of a DMT monitor for tracking slow non- stationarities present in LIGO science data
نویسنده
چکیده
Presence of slow non-stationarities has been seen in a series of studies with LIGO engineering and science data. It is important to track these slow variations or ‘drifts’ to diagnose their origin and correct them, as nonstationary data can affect sensitivity of astrophysical searches. A DMT (Data Monitoring Tool) monitor has been built to track slow non-stationarities in LIGO data. The monitor, tested on S4 data, will be operational during LIGO S5 data run. Offline analysis will be performed to unearth details of patterns thus obtained in the output of the monitor.

Vetoes for inspiral triggers in LIGO data
Presented is a summary of studies by the LIGO Scientific Collaboration’s Inspiral Analysis Group on the development of possible vetoes to be used in the evaluation of data from the first two LIGO science data runs. Numerous environmental monitor signals and interferometer control channels have been analysed in order to characterize the interferometers’ performance. The results of studies on sel...
متن کاملGroup-wise Stationary Subspace Analysis - A novel method for studying non-stationarities
In this paper we present an extension of the recently proposed Stationary Subspace Analysis (SSA). This novel method solves the problem how to group signals from different conditions and/or subjects to find stationary subspaces. The original SSA approach does not offer a natural way to group data and therefore better define the non-stationarities of interest. This drawback is solved with group-...

متن کاملThe influence of a slow-release multi-trace element ruminal bolus on trace element status, number of ovarian follicles and pregnancy outcomes in synchronized Afshari ewes
Published data on the effects of ruminal bolus on the number of ovulatory follicles in ewes does not exist. The present study determined the effects of a ruminal bolus on trace element status, follicular dynamics and reproductive performance in ewes. Eighty Afshari cycling ewes were synchronized during breeding season using CIDR for 14 days and assigned to 4 groups (n=20); group 1 received a si...
