The Quest for the Astrophysical Gravitational-Wave Background with Terrestrial Detectors

We present the gravitational-wave background and its properties focusing on the background from compact binary coalescences in terrestrial detectors. We also introduce the standard data analysis method used to search for this background and discuss its detectability with second and third generation...

description We present the gravitational-wave background and its properties focusing on the background from compact binary coalescences in terrestrial detectors. We also introduce the standard data analysis method used to search for this background and discuss its detectability with second and third generation networks of detectors. To illustrate, we first use simple models and then discuss more realistic models based on simulations.
