Abstract

Resonant, gravitational wave detectors are described. Examples are given for signal improvement by combining signals from several independent detectors. Optimal filtering is also demonstrated. The successful test run of Allegro in coincidence with LIGO Livingston during an engineering run (E7) is also described.
