Scientific paper

The data analysis for a Weber-type gravitational-wave experiment conducted at Rome University is described. The statistical characteristics of the data, noise, and signal-processing procedure are examined, and the data analysis algorithms are outlined. Experimental data obtained in a period of about 7.5 hr with the antenna operating at 4.2 K are analyzed as an example. It is noted that the data are available in the form of two direct sequences that represent the state of the second-order system describing the behavior of the antenna, its fundamental longitudinal frequency and the various input signals, such as noise and gravitational excitation. The S/N ratio for detection of short bursts of gravitational waves is calculated.
