keywords = "This article discusses the potential advantages of a data
processing technique for continuous gravitational wave signals
searches in the data measured by ground-based gravitational wave
interferometers. Its main advantage over other techniques is that
it does not need to search over the signal’s direction of
propagation. Although it is a “coherent method” (i.e., it
coherently processes year-long data), it is applied to a data set
obtained by multiplying the original time-series with a
(half-year) time-shifted copy of it. As a result, the phase
modulation due to the interferometer motion around the Sun is
automatically canceled in the signal of the synthesized
time-series. Although the resulting signal-to-noise ratio is not
as high as that of a coherent search, it equals that of current
hierarchical methods. In addition, since the signal search is
performed over a parameters space of smaller dimensionality, the
associated false-alarm probability should be smaller than those
characterizing hierarchical methods and result in an improved
likelihood of detection.",
