Improving the sensitivity of searches for gravitational waves from compact binary coalescences

The detection of gravitational waves from the coalescence of two compact objects has been brought to within touching distance by the construction and operation of a global network of laser-interferometer detectors. However, the amplitude of the radiation from these events is so low that direct detec...
