Second Einstein Telescope Mock Science Challenge : Detection of the GW Stochastic Background from Compact Binary Coalescences

preprint2014arXivOpen access

Abstract

We present the results of the search for an astrophysical gravitational-wave stochastic background during the second Einstein Telescope mock data and science challenge. Assuming that the loudest sources can be detected individually and removed from the data, we show that the residual background can be recovered with an accuracy of 11% with the standard cross-correlation statistic, after correction of a systematic bias due to the non-isotropy of the sources.
