Gravitational Waves in Space

LISA

Three spacecraft, each with a Y-shaped payload, form an equilateral triangle with sides 5 million km in length.

Distribution of WD binaries (Nelemans et al)

WD-WD, WD-NS, NS-NS binaries with GW frequency within LISA band are observed.

These sources are GUARANTEED

“spheres”• omnidirectionality: decode the excitation of the 5

quadrupolar modes to get uniform sky coverage & find direction of propagation

• cross section: larger as the volume fill-up factor inrespect to bars

The search for burst waves at resonant frequency ~ 900 Hz.

The detectors nearly parallel to maximize coincident sensitivity.

Candidate events at SNR > 3-5 (~ background events 100/day)

Data exchanged: peak amplitude, time of event and uncertainties.

Threshold equivalent to ~0.1 M converted into a gravitational wave millisecond burst at a distance of 10 kpc.

The accidental coincidence rate over 1 sec interval (e.g. bandwidth of 1 Hz) was ~ few/week two-fold and ~few/century three-fold.

Time resolution not sufficient to resolve incident wave direction, no directional search has been applied.

No evidence for grav wave bursts was found.

Final results


During 2001 EXPLORER and NAUTILUS were the only two operating resonant detectors, with the best ever reached sensitivity.An algorithm based on energy compatibility of the event was applied to reduce the “background”

- crewless operation- data validated by cosmic ray effect- new upper limit with bars, no significant coincidence excess nor sidereal effect.

Triple coincidences: 106 time shifts, no accidentals, 9.3 days false alarm rate < 10-4 / yr for H>1.4 10-21/Hz

ConclusionsSensitivity toward gravitational wave detection is improving on many fronts and this will continue well into the future

New upper limits are being set for the major sources --binary inspirals, periodic sources, burst sources and stochastic background.

Data exchange and joint data analysis between detector groups is improving our ability to make detections

Many exciting future projects and upgrades are planned or getting underway.

Hopefully, detections will be made soon !! Maybe by Amaldi-7??
