We performed a search for event bursts in the XMASS-I detector associated with 11 gravitational-wave events detected during LIGO/Virgo’s O1 and O2 periods. Simple and loose cuts were applied to the data collected in the full 832 kg xenon volume around the detection time of each gravitational-wave event. The data were divided into four energy regions ranging from keV to MeV. Without assuming any particular burst models, we looked for event bursts in sliding windows with various time width from 0.02 to 10 s. The search was conducted in a time window between 400 and +10,000 s from each gravitational-wave event. For the binary neutron star merger GW170817, no significant event burst was observed in the XMASS-I detector and we set 90% confidence level upper limits on neutrino fluence for the sum of all the neutrino flavors via coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering. The obtained upper limit was (1.3–2.1)×1011 cm2 under the assumption of a Fermi-Dirac spectrum with average neutrino energy of 20 MeV. The neutrino fluence limits for mono-energetic neutrinos in the energy range between 14 and 100 MeV were also calculated. Among the other 10 gravitational wave events detected as the binary black hole mergers, a burst candidate with a 3.0σ significance was found at 1801.95–1803.95 s in the analysis for GW151012. However, no significant deviation from the background in the reconstructed energy and position distributions was found. Considering the additional look-elsewhere effect of analyzing the 11 GW events, the significance of finding such a burst candidate associated with any of them is 2.1σ.

在XMASS-I中搜索与引力波事件相关的事件突发

我们在XMASS-I检测器中搜索了与LIGO /处女座O1和O2期间检测到的11个重力波事件相关的事件爆发。在每个重力波事件的检测时间前后,对所有832 kg氙气体积中收集的数据进行简单和宽松的切割。数据被分为从keV到MeV的四个能量区域。在不假设任何特定突发模型的情况下,我们在滑动窗口中寻找事件突发,这些窗口的时间宽度从0.02到10 s不等。搜索是在介于-400+10000 每个引力波事件中的s。对于双星中子星合并GW170817,在XMASS-I检测器中未观察到明显的事件爆发,并且我们通过相干弹性中微子核散射为所有中微子风味的总和设定了中微子通量的90%置信水平上限。获得的上限为(1.3–2.1)×1011 厘米-2个在费米-狄拉克光谱的假设下,平均中微子能量为20 MeV。还计算了能量在14到100 MeV之间的单能中微子的中微子注量极限。在检测为二元黑洞合并的其他10个引力波事件中,具有3.0的爆发候选σ在GW151012的分析中发现显着性为1801.95–1803.95 s。然而,在重建的能量和位置分布中未发现与背景的显着偏差。考虑到分析11 GW事件的其他外观影响,发现与任何此类事件相关联的突发候选者的重要性为2.1σ
