Efficient parameter estimation is critical for Gravitational-Wave astronomy. In the case of compact binary coalescence, the high dimensional parameter space demands efficient sampling techniques - such as Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). A number of degeneracies effectively reduce the dimensionality of the parameter space and, when known, can render sampling algorithms more efficient with problem-specific improvements. We present in this paper an analytical description of a degeneracy involving the extrinsic parameters of a compact binary coalescence gravitational-wave signal, when data from a three detector network (such as Advanced LIGO/Virgo) is available. We use this new formula to construct a jump proposal, a framework for a generic sampler to take advantage of the degeneracy. We show the gain in efficiency for a MCMC sampler in the analysis of the gravitational-wave signal from a compact binary coalescence.
The current gravitational wave detectors have identified a surprising population of heavy stellar mass black holes, and an even larger population of coalescing neutron stars. The first observations have led to many dramatic discoveries and the confir
Gravitational waves are radiative solutions of space-time dynamics predicted by Einsteins theory of General Relativity. A world-wide array of large-scale and highly sensitive interferometric detectors constantly scrutinizes the geometry of the local
Space-based gravitational wave detectors cannot keep rigid structures and precise arm length equality, so the precise equality of detector arms which is required in a ground-based interferometer to cancel the overwhelming laser noise is impossible. T
The field of transient astronomy has seen a revolution with the first gravitational-wave detections and the arrival of multi-messenger observations they enabled. Transformed by the first detection of binary black hole and binary neutron star mergers,
Unlike ground-based gravitational wave detectors, space-based gravitational wave detectors can detect the ringdown signals from massive black hole binary mergers with large signal-to-noise ratio, and help to extract the source parameters and localize
