This repository contains Time Domain F-statistics (TDFstat) pipeline used to search for almost-monochromatic, continuous gravitational waves in data from interferometric detectors. Supported detectors are H1 (Hanford), L1 (Livingston) of LIGO and V1 (Cascina) of Virgo. It is authored by members of the Polgraw group within the Virgo collaboration.
See the documentation page for more details.

This repository gathers several elements of the pipeline:
- Generation of the initial data:
genseg - Parameter space grid generation:
gridgen(this is a copy of external repository https://github.com/apisarski/gridgen) - Coherent search for candidate signals in narrowband time segments:
search - Search for coincidences among different time segments:
coincidences - Estimation of false alarm probability of coincidences:
fap - Followup of interesting outliers:
followup - Sensitivity upper limits: in
sensitivity-scripts - Test data.
We also include some external libraries in the utils directory:
- iniparser by N. Devillard & E. Leblond,
- Sleef vector library by N. Shibata et al.
Many thanks for authors!
