Triggers for the Detection of Gravitational Wave Bursts
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present several filtering methods which can be used as triggers for the detection of gravi-tational wave bursts in interferometric detectors. All the methods are compared to matched filtering with the help of a figure of merit based on the detection of supernovae signals simulated by Zwerger and Müller.

Correlation between gamma ray bursts and gravitational wave bursts: the AURIGA complete data analysis
A widely accepted paradigm for astrophysical models of gamma ray bursts (GRB) prescribes a compact ‘central engine’ dominated by gravitational interactions, and therefore a concurrent emission of GRBs and gravitational wave bursts is likely to occur. Consequently, we have tested a novel and reliable method for searching for time correlation in the AURIGA and BATSE complete dataset. The analysis...
متن کاملSwift Pointing and Gravitational-Wave Bursts from Gamma-Ray Burst Events
The currently accepted model for gamma-ray burst phenomena involves the violent formation of a rapidly rotating solar-mass black hole. Gravitational waves should be associated with the black-hole formation, and their detection would permit this model to be tested. Even upper limits on the gravitational-wave strength associated with gammaray bursts could constrain the gamma-ray burst model. This...
متن کاملFirst low-latency LIGO+Virgo search for binary inspirals and their electromagnetic counterparts
Aims. The detection and measurement of gravitational-waves from coalescing neutron-star binary systems is an important science goal for ground-based gravitational-wave detectors. In addition to emitting gravitational-waves at frequencies that span the most sensitive bands of the LIGO and Virgo detectors, these sources are also amongst the most likely to produce an electromagnetic counterpart to...

The currently accepted model for gamma-ray burst phenomena involves the violent formation of a rapidly rotating solar mass black hole. Gravitational waves should be associated with the black-hole formation, and their detection would permit this model to be tested, the black hole progenitor (e.g., coalescing binary or collapsing stellar core) identified, and the origin of the gamma rays (within ...
متن کاملGravitational Wave Burst Search
We will prepare for, carry out, and report on a search for burst-like events of gravitational wave origin in data to be collected in an Engineering Run that will have coincident data from operating interferometers at both Hanford and Livingston (hereinafter referred to as the Science Analysis Challenge or SAC). By “burst-like events” (hereinafter “bursts”) we refer in the most general sense to ...
