Description

While the current sensitivity of the interferometers makes the detection of overlapping signals between two different gravitational waves (GWs) very unlikely, this will be quite common for the next generation of detectors: indeed, the detection rate will be high enough so that the probability to have two or more events at the same time is expected to be very high.
We present the results of the analysis on overlapping signals from the perspective of unmodeled searches using the coherent WaveBurst (cWB) pipeline. This analysis is done injecting two overlapping sets of signals on Gaussian noise considering a three detector network (Livingston, Hanford, Virgo). This is done for three different configurations: binary black hole - binary black hole (BBH-BBH), binary black hole - binary neutron star (BBH-BNS) and binary neutron star - binary neutron star (BNS-BNS), reporting in each case the detection efficiency and evaluating the effect of the post production cuts used in the last Advanced LIGO-Virgo run.
