Description

Continuous waves from non-axisymmetric neutron stars are orders of magnitude weaker than transient events from black hole and neutron star collisions. Unlike a transient event, a continuous wave source will allow repeated observations. We will present results of all-sky searches for neutron stars and other sources carried out by the Falcon pipeline and discuss interplay between detector artifacts and outliers produced by our searches.
