Description

Magnetic noise can mimic or mask the correlated signatures expected from the stochastic gravitational-wave background (SGWB). This presentation reviews our approach to characterizing magnetic contamination through controlled magnetic injections, determination of coupling functions and the development of a comprehensive magnetic budget. These results highlight the importance of accurately modeling magnetic noise to produce reliable SGWB constraints.
