Public GWTC cWB References

The public cWB documentation includes waveform-reconstruction reports and Coherent Event Display (CED) pages for selected GWTC events. This page keeps those references discoverable from the pycWB documentation without importing the full public gallery.

Note

These links point to public cWB/cWB-2G outputs. They are reference material, not pycWB tutorials. To run a current pycWB search, start with Start Here or Production Analysis.

GWTC Catalog Pages

Catalog	Observing run	Catalog reference	Public cWB page
GWTC-1	O1/O2	GWTC-1 documentation	GWTC-1 cWB reconstructed waveforms
GWTC-2	O3a	GWTC-2 paper	GWTC-2 cWB reconstructed waveforms
GWTC-3	O3b	GWTC-3 paper	GWTC-3 cWB reconstructed waveforms
GWTC-4	O4a subset	GWTC-4.0 page	GWTC-4 cWB reconstructed waveforms

Summary Plot Categories

The public cWB catalog pages organize cWB comparisons with modeled CBC reconstructions into the same broad plot categories:

• maximum-likelihood whitened waveforms in the time domain;

• whitened waveform residuals;

• skymaps comparing cWB with parameter-estimation results;

• cWB confidence intervals in time, frequency, and time-envelope views;

• detector strain noise amplitude spectral density (ASD).

Catalog	Time	Residuals	Skymaps	Time CI	Frequency CI	ASD
GWTC-1	time	residuals	skymaps	time CI	frequency CI	ASD
GWTC-2	time	residuals	skymaps	time CI	frequency CI	ASD
GWTC-3	time	residuals	skymaps	time CI	frequency CI	ASD
GWTC-4	time	residuals	skymaps	time CI	frequency CI	ASD

The GWTC-1, GWTC-2, and GWTC-3 pages also include alternate skymap views where cWB is constrained to the HL network only. See the public cWB catalog pages above for those specialized comparison links.

O1/O2 Coherent Event Displays
