Sensitivity to Gravitational Waves from Compact Binary Coalescences Achieved during LIGOs Fifth and Virgos First Science Run


الملخص بالإنكليزية

We summarize the sensitivity achieved by the LIGO and Virgo gravitational wave detectors for compact binary coalescence (CBC) searches during LIGOs fifth science run and Virgos first science run. We present noise spectral density curves for each of the four detectors that operated during these science runs which are representative of the typical performance achieved by the detectors for CBC searches. These spectra are intended for release to the public as a summary of detector performance for CBC searches during these science runs.
