TL;DR
This paper discusses methods for estimating background noise in gravitational wave experiments, emphasizing the effectiveness of using delayed coincidences by shifting event times to accurately assess accidental coincidences.
Contribution
It introduces the use of orderly shifted event times for background estimation, improving accuracy in gravitational wave coincidence analysis.
Findings
Delayed coincidence method is most correct for background estimation.
Orderly shifting of event times enhances accuracy.
Provides a reliable approach for gravitational wave data analysis.
Abstract
The problem to estimate the background due to accidental coincidences in the search for coincidences in gravitational wave experiments is discussed. The use of delayed coincidences obtained by orderly shifting the event times of one of the two detectors is shown to be the most correct
