This all-sky, all-time, multidetector search for binary coalescence has been used to search data taken in recent LIGO and Virgo runs. The search is built around a matched filter analysis of the data, augmented by numerous signal consistency tests designed to distinguish artifacts of non-Gaussian detector noise from potential detections. We demonstrate the search performance using Gaussian noise and data from the fifth LIGO science run and demonstrate that the signal consistency tests are capable of mitigating the effect of non-Gaussian noise and providing a sensitivity comparable to that achieved in Gaussian noise. © 2013 American Physical Society.trueSearching for gravitational waves from binary coalescenceArticlehttp://hdl.handle.net/11858/00-001M-0000-000E-E974-41550236822 January 2013138024033arJournal137
