We present a new type of search strategy designed specifically to find continuously emitting gravitational wave sources in known binary systems based on the incoherent sum of frequency modulated binary signal sidebands. The search pipeline…
We develop a general formalism for the parameter-space metric of the multi-detector F-statistic, which is a matched-filtering detection statistic for continuous gravitational waves. We find that there exists a whole family of F-statistic…
We describe the practical implementation of the sideband search, a search for periodic gravitational waves from neutron stars in binary systems. The orbital motion of the source in its binary system causes frequency-modulation in the…
Continuous gravitational waves represent one of the long-sought types of signals that have yet to be detected. Due to their small amplitude, long observational datasets (months-years) have to be analyzed together, thereby vastly increasing…
In the first two years of Gravitational Wave (GW) Astronomy, half a dozen compact binary coalescences (CBCs) have been detected. As the sensitivities and bandwidths of the detectors improve and new detectors join the network, many more…
Gravitational wave (GW) astronomy has consolidated its role as a new observational window to reveal the properties of compact binaries in the Universe. In particular, the discovery of the first binary neutron star coalescence, GW170817, led…
Inspiraling binaries of compact objects are primary targets for current and future gravitational-wave observatories. Waveforms computed in General Relativity are used to search for these sources, and will probably be used to extract source…
This thesis presents advancements in the detection of gravitational waves from compact binary coalescences, utilising the most sensitive observatories constructed to date. The research focuses on enhancing gravitational-wave signal searches…
We present a comprehensive investigation of the F-statistic method for parameter estimation of gravitational wave (GW) signals from compact binary coalescences. By analytically maximizing the likelihood over the luminosity distance and…
We describe a novel, very fast and robust, directed search incoherent method for periodic gravitational waves (GWs) from neutron stars in binary systems. As directed search, we assume the source sky position to be known with enough…
Continuous gravitational waves from spinning deformed neutron stars have not been detected yet, and are one of the most promising signals for future detection. All-sky searches for continuous gravitational waves from unknown neutron stars…
We investigate the Bayesian framework for detection of continuous gravitational waves (GWs) in the context of targeted searches, where the phase evolution of the GW signal is assumed to be known, while the four amplitude parameters are…
The F-statistic is an optimal detection statistic for continuous gravitational waves, i.e., long-duration (quasi-)monochromatic signals with slowly-varying intrinsic frequency. This method was originally developed in the context of…
Gravitational waves detected by advanced ground-based detectors have allowed studying the universe in a way which is fully complementary to electromagnetic observations. As more sources are detected, it will be possible to measure…
The search for gravitational waves generated by the inspiral phase of binaries of light compact objects holds significant promise in testing the existence of primordial black holes and/or other exotic objects. In this paper, we present a…
Recent observations of gravitational waves from binary black holes and neutron stars allow us to probe the strong and dynamical field regime of gravity. On the other hand, a collective signal from many individual, unresolved sources results…
Binary Systems are the most studied sources of gravitational waves. The mechanisms of emission and the behavior of the orbital parameters are well known and can be written in analytic form in several cases. Besides, the strongest indication…
The detection of quasi-periodic sources of gravitational waves requires the accumulation of signal-to-noise over long observation times. If not removed, Earth-motion induced Doppler modulations, and intrinsic variations of the…
The F-statistic, derived by Jaranowski, Krolak & Schutz (1998), is the optimal (frequentist) statistic for the detection of nearly periodic gravitational waves from known neutron stars, in the presence of stationary, Gaussian detector…
The pulsar timing array community has recently reported the first evidence of a low-frequency stochastic gravitational wave background. With longer observational timespans we expect to be able to resolve individual gravitational wave…
