  1. S5 Inspiral Hardware Injections Stephen Fairhurst LIGO-Caltech/Cardiff University Inspiral Group LIGO-G070165-00-Z

  2. S5 Hardware Injections • Hardware injections performed around once per day • Mass pairs: 1.4-1.4, 3-3, 10-10, 1.4-10 solar masses • Online search runs templates with1 to 3 solar masses • SNR threshold of 6 • Low mass injections seen by the online search (eg in InspiralMon) • Once per day, check for online inspiral triggers at the time of inspiral hardware injections • Web pages:http://ldas-jobs.ligo-la.caltech.edu/~inspiralbns/hardware_inj/hardware_inj.html LIGO-G070165-00-Z

  3. Results LIGO-G070165-00-Z

  4. Results Injection details: Time, distance, masses LIGO-G070165-00-Z

  5. Results Instrument details: BNS horizon, expected SNR LIGO-G070165-00-Z

  6. Results Trigger details: SNR, distance, time, masses LIGO-G070165-00-Z

  7. Results Trigger accuracy: time, mass, distance LIGO-G070165-00-Z

  8. Results Quiet Injection (SNR <7): May not see LIGO-G070165-00-Z

  9. Results cont. Missed injection: No triggers at injection time Only L1 injection missed during S5 LIGO-G070165-00-Z

  10. Parameter Accuracy — L1 Distance • More recent injections larger and redder • Check of calibration - errors centred around zero • Errors scale with distance LIGO-G070165-00-Z

  11. Parameter Accuracy — H1 Distance • More recent injections larger and redder • Check of calibration - clearly shows 20% offset LIGO-G070165-00-Z

  12. Parameter Accuracy — L1 End Time • More recent injections larger and redder • Errors scale with distance LIGO-G070165-00-Z

  13. Parameter Accuracy — L1 Chirp Mass • More recent injections larger and redder • Errors scale with distance LIGO-G070165-00-Z

  14. Future Plans • Move to V3 calibration and h(t) • Extend mass range of online search • Other suggestions welcomed LIGO-G070165-00-Z

  15. Future Schedule LIGO-G070165-00-Z
