Search for gravitational waves from Scorpius X-1 with a hidden Markov model in O3 LIGO data with a corrected orbital ephemeris

Results are presented for a semi-coherent search for gravitational waves from the low-mass X-ray binary Scorpius X-1 in Observing Run 3 (O3) data from the Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory, using an updated orbital parameter ephemeris and a hidden Markov model (HMM) to allow for spin wandering. The new orbital ephemeris corrects errors in previously published orbital measurements and implies a new search domain. This search domain does not overlap with the one used in the original Scorpius X-1 HMM O3 search. The corrected domain is approximately three times smaller by area in the $T_{\rm asc}$--$P$ plane than the original domain, where $T_{\rm asc}$ and $P$ denote the time of passage through the ascending node and the orbital period respectively, reducing the trials factor and computing time. No evidence is found for gravitational radiation in the search band from 60 Hz to 500 Hz. Upper limits are computed for the characteristic gravitational wave strain. They are consistent with the values from the original Scorpius X-1 HMM O3 search.
