A new harmonic-decomposition template search for precessing binary black holes in LIGO O3 data improves sensitivity by up to 28% and reduces computational cost by up to 5x with no new detections.
Once the new orthogonalized harmonics are obtained for templates withb≥1, we perform the matched filtering as previously described
