Search templates for gravitational waves from inspiraling binaries: Choice of template spacing

Gravitational waves from inspiraling, compact binaries will be searched for in the output of the LIGO-VIRGO interferometric network by the method of ``matched filtering''---i.e., by correlating the noisy output of each interferometer with a set of theoretical wave form templates. These search templates will be a discrete subset of a …
