Current status of Japanese detectors

Posted by klaurent Tokyo

Kavli Affiliate: Tomiyoshi Haruyama | Summary:Current status of TAMA and CLIO detectors in Japan is reported in this article. These two interferometric gravitational-wave detectors are being developed for the large cryogenic gravitational wave telescope (LCGT) which is a future plan for detecting gravitational wave signals at least once per year. TAMA300 is being upgraded to […]

The Use of Weighting in Periodicity Searches in All-Sky Monitor Data: Applications to the GLAST LAT

Posted by klaurent Stanford

Kavli Affiliate: Richard Dubois | Summary:The light curves produced by all-sky monitors, such as the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer All-Sky Monitor and the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT), generally have non-uniform error bars. In searching for periodic modulation in this type of data using power spectra it can be important to use appropriate weighting of […]
