Abstract

The search for continuous gravitational waves demands computationally efficient algorithms that can handle highly non-linear parameter spaces. Loosely coherent algorithms establish upper limits and detect signals by analyzing families of templates as a single unit. We describe a new computationally efficient loosely coherent search intended for all-sky searches over medium scale coherence lengths (3-300 hours).
