Description
We investigate the recovery chances of highly spinning waveforms
immersed in LIGO S5-like noise by performing a matched filtering with
106 randomly chosen spinning waveforms generated with the LAL
package. While the masses of the compact binary are reasonably well
recovered (slightly overestimated), the same does not hold true for the
spins. We show the best fit matches both in the time-domain and the
frequency-domain. These encompass some of the spinning characteristics
of the signal, but far less than what would be required to identify the
astrophysical parameters of the system. An improvement of the matching
method is necessary, though may be difficult due to the noisy signal.
