Investigating the noise residuals around the gravitational wave event GW150914
We use the Pearson cross-correlation statistic proposed by Liu and Jackson [1], and employed by Creswell et al. [2], to look for statistically significant correlations between the LIGO Hanford and Livingston detectors at the time of the binary black hole merger GW150914. We compute this statistic for the calibrated strain …
