abstract

  • The most sensitive to-date multimessenger detection of the standing accretion shock instability (SASI) in real interferometric data is presented, which quantitatively identifies the presence of the SASI in core-collapse supernovae using neutrino and gravitational-wave (GW) signals. In the GW channel, the coherent WaveBurst software on its version XP is implemented, among with real LIGO data from the O3 and O4 observing runs. With this, a more accurate estimation of parameters, such as the central frequency and signal duration, is obtained for both sets of data. The SASI identification probability versus false alarm rates is presented in the form of receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. For O3, the new study for the combined GW and neutrino detection condition, labeled as (Formula presented) (Formula presented), shows an identification probability (previous best results from Lin et al 2023 Phys. Rev. D 107 083017) of 1 (1), 0.90 (0.70) and 0.37 (0.34) at 1, 5 and 10 kpc for a false identification probability of 0.10. On the other hand, using O4 shows that the GW channel by itself is sensitive enough to provide almost perfect identification probability scores, with identification probability values of 1, 0.99 and 0.97 for a false identification probability of 0.01 at 1, 5 and 10 kpc, respectively.
