The critical coupling likelihood (CCL) method has been developed to characterize potential noise coupling and in the future aid GW search efforts. By testing two hypotheses about pairs of channels, CCL is able to identify undesirable coupled instrumental noise from potential GW candidates. Our preliminary results show that CCL can associate up to ∼80% of observed artifacts with SNR 8 with local noise sources, while reducing the duty cycle of the instrument by 15%. An approach like CCL will become increasingly important as GW research moves into the advanced LIGO era, going from the first GW detection to GW astronomy. %N 20 %T The critical coupling likelihood method: a new approach for seamless integration of environmental and operating conditions of gravitational wave detectors into gravitational wave searches %@electronicmailaddress cesar.costa@das.inpe.br %@secondarytype PRE PI %K gravitational wave detectors and experiments, gravitational radiation detectors, mass spectromet, interferometers, gravitational waves. %@archivingpolicy denypublisher denyfinaldraft12 %@usergroup administrator %@usergroup lattes %@usergroup marciana %@group DAS-CEA-INPE-MCTI-GOV-BR %@e-mailaddress cesar.costa@das.inpe.br %@secondarykey INPE--PRE/ %@secondarymark B1_ASTRONOMIA_/_FÍSICA A2_ENGENHARIAS_I B1_ENGENHARIAS_IV C_ENSINO_DE_CIÊNCIAS_E_MATEMATICA A1_INTERDISCIPLINAR B1_MATEMÁTICA_/_PROBABILIDADE_E_ESTATÍSTICA %F lattes: 2701172317925881 1 CostaTorr:2012:NeApSe %@issn 0264-9381 %2 dpi.inpe.br/plutao/2012/11.28.18.58.22 %@affiliation Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas Espaciais (INPE) %@project NSF grants (PHY-0905184 and PHY-0757058); CNPq (300001/2012-6) %B Classical and Quantum Gravity %@versiontype publisher %P 205018 %4 dpi.inpe.br/plutao/2012/11.28.18.58 %@documentstage not transferred %D 2012 %V 29 %@doi 10.1088/0264-9381/29/20/205018 %O Setores de Atividade: Pesquisa e desenvolvimento científico. %A Costa, César Augusto, %A Torres, Cristina V, %@dissemination WEBSCI; PORTALCAPES; COMPENDEX. %@area CEA
