Oral presentation

Detector characterization (DetChar) is a key component of the direct search for gravitational waves (GW) performed by the global network of large scale ground-based interferometric detectors – the LIGO-Hanford and LIGO-Livingston instruments, the Virgo detector and soon KAGRA. DetChar contributions are manifold: to vet the GW transient candidates detected by the astrophysical analyses; to help...
