Description
This study investigates the influence of a spectrum of gravitational wave signals from coalescing binaries on the search for continuous waves (CWs) in the Einstein Telescope and during Virgo O5.
With the forthcoming upgrades to current detectors and the advent of third-generation detectors, an increased number of inspiral compact object cycles in the frequency band will be detected, leading to potential signal superpositions. We simulate the spectrum of coalescence signals, focusing on the low-frequency range of 1-10 Hz, where these signals are expected to be prevalent.
Coalescence signals, especially at low frequencies, act as noise and must be accounted for in the construction of the background for CW detection and analysis. This work aims to quantify the impact of these signals on CW searches, enhancing our understanding and improving detection methods.
