1 Overview of the CW Search Group Efforts – S2 data analyses Michael Landry LIGO Hanford Observatory on behalf of the CW Search Group LSC Meeting March 16, 2004 LIGO Livingston Observatory, WA

2 S1 paper Proof returned to PRD one week ago
Scheduled to appear in PRD: V69 LSC Meeting 16 Mar 2004

3 CW search group members
C. Cutler, Y. Itoh, B. Krishnan, B. Machenschalk, M. Papa, R. Prix, B. Schutz (AEI) S. Anderson, T. Creighton, R. Drever (CIT) N. Christensen (Carleton College) T. Regimbau (MIT) M. Landry, G. Mendell (LHO) M. Zucker (LLO) A. Sintes (U. Balearic Islands) C. Messenger, V. Re, A. Vecchio (U. Birmingham ) R. Dupuis, M. Pitkin, J. Veitch, G. Woan (U. Glasgow) D. Chin, V. Dergachev, D. Gustafson, K. Riles (U. Michigan) B. Allen, X. Siemens (UW Milwaukee) LSC Meeting 16 Mar 2004

4 Coherent searches Time-domain analyses (optimal parameter est.)
S1-like, Bayesian upper limit Includes Crab pulsar Parameter estimation with Markov-Chain Monte-Carlo method Frequency domain analyses (optimal blind detection) F-statistic, nearby all-sky, broadband, ~10h data F-statistic, LMXB Sco X-1, ~6h data F-statistic, galactic core, broadband NSF ITR grant request submitted Feb 04 (S2 analyses in red) LSC Meeting 16 Mar 2004

5 Incoherent searches Hough transforms Stack-slide
PowerFlux (formerly ‘Unbiased’) All three are all-sky, wideband searches, scanning all observation time Moving towards hierarchical search, alternating stages of incoherent and coherent search algorithms LSC Meeting 16 Mar 2004

6 Expected S2 publications
Time-domain: upper limits on 28 (38?) known pulsars To be submitted to PRL or ApJ Results to be presented at April APS (May 1st,Denver), approximately coincident with submission of paper F-statistic results: combined PRD paper on I) broadband all-sky search, and II) Sco X-1 To be submitted PRD Pipeline still under definition: expect results and draft for June LSC meeting Hough transform results (PRD) Possible inclusion, if ready, of other incoherent methods such as PowerFlux and Stackslide To be submitted to PRD Expect results and draft for June LSC meeting LSC Meeting 16 Mar 2004
