Search for multimessenger signals in NOvA coincident with LIGO/Virgo detections

Abstract: Using the NOvA neutrino detectors, a broad search has been performed for any signal coincident with 28 gravitational wave events detected by the LIGO/Virgo Collaboration between September 2015 and July 2019. For all of these events, NOvA is sensitive to possible arrival of neutrinos and cosmic rays of GeV and higher energies. For five (seven) events in the NOvA Far (Near) Detector, timely public alerts from the LIGO/Virgo Collaboration allowed recording of MeV-scale events. No signal candidates were found.

“…During the third observing run, LIGO-O3, the LIGO/Virgo collaboration initiated the online GW candidate event database (GraceDB) (LIGO Scientific Collaboration 2020), providing public alerts and a centralized location for aggregating and retrieving event information. For such transient GW events, various neutrino detectors reported correlation searches: Super-Kamiokande (Abe et al 2016(Abe et al , 2018, Borexino (Agostini et al 2017), NOvA (Acero et al 2020), Bikal-GVD Neutrino Telescope (Avrorin et al 2018), Daya Bay (An et al 2020), XMASS (Collaboration et al 2020), and IceCube/ANTARES (Adrián-Martínez et al 2016;Albert et al 2017b;Aartsen et al 2020). The Kamioka Liquid scintillator AntiNeutrino Detector (KamLAND) has also performed a search for electron antineutrinos coincident with gravitational waves GW150914 and GW151226, and then candidate event LVT151012 (Gando et al 2016a).…”

“…Relative to our previous report [7], the clustering algorithm for grouping hits into supernova neutrino event candidates has been greatly improved. Previously, a cluster was defined as a pair of hits with one hit in each view.…”

“…In a previous paper [7] we described a broad search * now at San José State University for signals, across the MeV to TeV range, associated with 26 gravitational wave events. We now focus on the possibility of detecting supernova-like neutrinos and present an improved search using the now-available larger catalog of gravitational wave events.…”
