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. © 2010 IOP Publishing Ltd.
