Abstract
Recorded 03 December 2021. Patrick Godwin of Pennsylvania State University presents "Low-latency Noise Mitigation Techniques in Gravitational-wave Detector Data Using Auxiliary Sensor Information" at IPAM's Workshop IV: Big Data in Multi-Messenger Astrophysics.
Abstract: Gravitational-wave detector data contain non-Gaussian noise transients and other sources of non-stationary noise due to instrumental artifacts and environmental noise couplings. These noise sources can limit the overall detector sensitivity and additionally, can mimic astrophysical signals. In the era of rapid, automated open public alerts, it is critical to develop automated low-latency noise mitigation techniques to enable rapid
multi-messenger follow-up with confident astrophysical events. In this talk,
I will discuss the current state of low-latency noise mitigation methods,
challenges in accessing low-latency strain and auxiliary sensor data,
and techniques to enable low-latency transient noise mitigation.
