Towards Detection of Gravitational Waves • From LISA Concept Demonstrations Mission • From Bars Bars with Increased Bandwidth Spheres • From Interferometers Advanced Interferometers Next Generation (QND) Detectors • From 8 Mpc (NN inspiral) 200 Mpc and then beyond • From Upper Limits Searches Detections • From Generic Searches Searches with Specified Waveforms • From Single Detectors Global Networks Amaldi-6 - Barish

  15. “spheres” • omnidirectionality: decode the excitation of the 5 • quadrupolar modes to get uniform sky coverage • & find direction of propagation • cross section: larger as the volume fill-up factor in • respect to bars MiniGRAIL (Leiden-Rome) just started operation Talks of Annette de Waard and Luciano Gottardi Schenberg (Brasil) coming to Amaldi-6 - Barish

  16. DUAL: two nested resonant masses Cerdonio et al PRL (2001), Bryant et al PRD (2003), Bonaldi et al PRD (2003) read-out with non-resonating transducers the differential deformations at frequencies between the lowest quadrupolar modes GW signals add back action noises subtract talk by Michele Bignotto sensitive in a few kHz-wide freq band !!!

  19. International Gravitational Event Collaboration (IGEC) • ALLEGRO,AURIGA,EXPLORER, NAUTILUS, and NIOBE 1997-2000. • The search for burst waves at resonant frequency ~ 900 Hz. • The detectors nearly parallel to maximize coincident sensitivity. • Candidate events at SNR > 3-5 (~background events 100/day) • Data exchanged: peak amplitude, time of event and uncertainties. • Threshold equivalent to ~0.1 M⊙ converted into a gravitational wave millisecond burst at a distance of 10 kpc. • The accidental coincidence rate over 1 sec interval (e.g. bandwidth of 1 Hz) was ~ few/week two-fold and ~few/century three-fold. • Time resolution not sufficient to resolve incident wave direction, no directional search has been applied. • No evidence for grav wave bursts was found.

  20. IGEC coincidence search Upper Limit on the Rateof gravitational waves bursts from the GALACTIC CENTERrandom arrival times and amplitude  search threshold h Final results rate [y –1] The Area above the blue curve is excluded with a coverage > 90% search threshold h h~ 2 10-18 DE ~ 0.02 M⊙ converted @ 10 kpc Amaldi-6 - Barish [P. Astone, et al. Phys. Rev. D68 (2003) 022001]

  21. EXPLORER-NAUTILUS 2001 During 2001 EXPLORER and NAUTILUS were the only two operating resonant detectors, with the best ever reached sensitivity. An algorithm based on energy compatibility of the event was applied to reduce the “background” Excess ??? Direction of Galactic Disc Number of events Sidereal hours ROG Coll.: CQG 19, 5449 (2002) L.S.Finn: CQG 20, L37 (2003) P.Astone, G.D’Agostini, S.D’Antonio: CQG Proc. Of GWDAW 2002, gr-qc/0304096 E. Coccia ROG Coll.:CQG Proc. Of GWDAW 2002 ROG Coll.: gr-qc/0304004 New data needed Amaldi-6 - Barish

  22. EXPLORER NAUTILUS Science Run 03 - crewless operation - data validated by cosmic ray effect - new upper limit with bars, no significant coincidence excess nor sidereal effect. ROG S 01 suggestion ROG S 03 Amaldi-6 - Barish

  23. dashed region excluded with probability > 90% My best guess on the achievable upper limit improvement by IGEC-2 rate [year –1] IGEC-1 upper limit 1 month search threshold WARNING: incomplete data set ! 1 year IGEC-2Expected Performance Triple coincidences: 106 time shifts, no accidentals, 9.3 days false alarm rate < 10-4 / yr for H>1.4 10-21/Hz Double coincidences: lower false alarm rates than for IGEC-1 Amaldi-6 - Barish

  29. Results for Neutron Star Binaries • Event Candidates • 142 event candidates found in the data • Loudest candidates eliminated in follow up investigation… • Other candidates consistent with background of analysis pipeline • Upper limit set on the rate of BNS coalescences R90 = 47 / year / MWEG Amaldi-6 - Barish

  30. Results for Primordial Black Hole Binaries • Same analysis pipeline • Event rate consistent with background of analysis pipeline • Upper limit set on the rate of PBHB coalescences R90 = 63 / year / MWEG Amaldi-6 - Barish

  32. Conclusions • Sensitivity toward gravitational wave detection is improving on many fronts and this will continue well into the future • New upper limits are being set for the major sources -- binary inspirals, periodic sources, burst sources and stochastic background. • Data exchange and joint data analysis between detector groups is improving our ability to make detections • Many exciting future projects and upgrades are planned or getting underway. • Hopefully, detections will be made soon !! Maybe by Amaldi-7?? Amaldi-6 - Barish
