1. Review
production of 30min calibrated SFTs well under way (see talks by V.Dergachev., X. Siemens in ASIS/DetChar). Also expect calibrated h(t) in the next 2 weeks.
TDS of signals from known pulsars:
changes wrt S1 analysis in:
noise estimation
phase evolution model for Crab
now reliable ULs for ~30 known pulsars
now preliminary ULs (correct within sqrt(2) for remaining 9
All-sky, wide-frequency FDS, Tobs ~ ½ day:
changes wrt S1:
robust wide band noise estimation
event identification procedure
event shape test
all machinery is in place, need to run end-to-end pipeline on final data set and entire parameter space
GC, wide-frequency FDS, Tobs: entire run
will exploit ~ 1000 CPUs for 1 month (AEI, Birmingham, Caltech, Cardiff, ISI, UWM)
will begin next week at SC03 conference

2. FDS of signals from ScoX1:
80 Hz band will be searched, projected semi-major axis, initial phase, Tobs: ~ ½ day, loudest event
end-to-end pipeline already tested, might include a c2 test on candidates
expect results by the end of the year
Hough transform:
all-sky, 1 spin-down parameter search, Tobs: entire S2 run, loudest event
pipeline in place, including monte carlo injections for determining UL detection statistic
all machinery is in place, need to run end-to-end pipeline on final data set and entire parameter space
Stack-slide search:
debugging sliding
needs to develop UL inference scheme
might have final results by March
Unbiased search:
developed power statistic from 30 min SFTs
