Correlated noise in networks of gravitational-wave detectors: subtraction and mitigation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
One of the key science goals of advanced gravitational-wave detectors is to observe a stochastic gravitational-wave background. However, recent work demonstrates that correlated magnetic fields from Schumann resonances can produce correlated strain noise

Dynamic Normalization for Compact Binary Coalescence Searches in Non-Stationary Noise [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The output of gravitational-wave interferometers, such as LIGO and Virgo, can be highly non-stationary. Broadband detector noise can affect the detector sensitivity on the order of tens of seconds. Gravitational-wave transient searches, such as those for

Oded Schramm’s contributions to noise sensitivity [PDF]

open access: yesThe Annals of Probability, 2011
We survey in this paper the main contributions of Oded Schramm related to noise sensitivity. We will describe in particular his various works which focused on the "spectral analysis" of critical percolation (and more generally of Boolean functions), his work on the shape-fluctuations of first passage percolation and finally his contributions to the ...

Validating a Short Bulgarian Version of a Psychometric Instrument for Multidimensional Noise Sensitivity Assessment

open access: yesFolia Medica, 2014
BACKGROUND: Noise sensitivity (NS) is a key construct in the fields of hygiene, planning and occupational medicine. It refers to a personality trait representing the reactivity to noise and is associated with various psycho-physiological health outcomes.

Noise Exposure and Job Stress – a Structural Equation Model in Textile Industries

open access: yesArchives of Acoustics, 2020
Noise exposure is one of the most important physical agents in the workplace which can induce job stress in several ways. The aim of this study was to model the interactions between independent and mediating variables and job stress using structural ...

Isolation of gravitational waves from displacement noise and utility of a time-delay device [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Interferometers with kilometer-scale arms have been built for gravitational-wave detections on the ground; ones with much longer arms are being planned for space-based detection.

Monolayer graphene bolometer as a sensitive far-IR detector [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In this paper we give a detailed analysis of the expected sensitivity and operating conditions in the power detection mode of a hot-electron bolometer (HEB) made from a few {\mu}m$^2$ of monolayer graphene (MLG) flake which can be embedded into either a ...

Internal noise sources limiting contrast sensitivity [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
AbstractContrast sensitivity varies substantially as a function of spatial frequency and luminance intensity. The variation as a function of luminance intensity is well known and characterized by three laws that can be attributed to the impact of three internal noise sources: early spontaneous neural activity limiting contrast sensitivity at low ...

Hyperacusis in Autism Spectrum Disorders

open access: yesAudiology Research, 2021
Hyperacusis is highly prevalent in the autism spectrum disorder (ASD) population. This auditory hypersensitivity can trigger pragmatically atypical reactions that may impact social and academic domains.
