Sensitivity of a VIRGO pair to stochastic GW backgrounds

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2009-10-31 v1

Abstract

The sensitivity of a pair of VIRGO interferometers to gravitational waves backgrounds (GW) of cosmological origin is analyzed for the cases of maximal and minimal overlap of the two detectors. The improvements in the detectability prospects of scale-invariant and non-scale-invariant logarithmic energy spectra of relic GW are discussed.
