Drakkith said:It appears you're asking whether or not LIGO can detect the gravitational waves generated by in-spiraling massive objects. Is that correct?
No, I was asking if the geometry was sufficient, and the event was sufficiently violent enough to produce gravitational waves of sufficient amplitude to be detected by the LIGO instrumentation
Drakkith said:So you're asking about gravitational waves? Looking at your earlier post:
No, I was asking about the geometry of gravity waves in space-time caused by any event, not just two black holes spiraling into each other, and if Δx, Δy, Δz, Δt must have sufficient amplitudes caused by such an event or events, to be detected by the LIGO instrumentation.
