Abstract

The Multi-Band Template Analysis is a low-latency analysis pipeline for the detection of gravitational waves to triggering electromagnetic follow up observations. Coincident observation of gravitational waves and an electromagnetic counterpart will allow us to develop a complete picture of energetic astronomical events. We give an outline of the MBTA pipeline, as well as the procedure for distributing gravitational wave candidate events to our astronomical partners. We give some details of the recent work that has been done to improve the MBTA pipeline and are now making preparations for the advanced detector era.
