Zusammenfassung:
We present the baseline multimessenger analysis method for the joint observations of gravitational
waves (GW) and high-energy neutrinos (HEN), together with a detailed analysis of the expected
science reach of the joint search. The analysis method combines data from GW and HEN detectors,
and uses the blue-luminosity-weighted distribution of galaxies. We derive expected GW+HEN
source rate upper limits for a wide range of source parameters covering several emission models.
Using published sensitivities of externally triggered searches, we derive joint upper limit estimates
both for the ongoing analysis with the initial LIGO-Virgo GW detectors with the partial IceCube
detector (22 strings) HEN detector and for projected results to advanced LIGO-Virgo detectors with
the completed IceCube (86 strings). We discuss the constraints these upper limits impose on some
existing GW+HEN emission models.
