TITLE: GCN CIRCULAR NUMBER: 39603 SUBJECT: LIGO/Virgo/KAGRA S250306ej: Retraction of GW compact binary merger candidate DATE: 25/03/06 15:31:48 GMT FROM: Mayank Chaturvedi at RRCAT, INDORE. mayankc1947@gmail.com

The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, and the KAGRA Collaboration report:

The trigger S250306ej is no longer considered to be a candidate of interest. This candidate was initially identified by one or more early-warning analyses by matching partial signal templates to the data. Analysis of additional data up to the putative merger time, with full signal templates, did not make a significant detection, indicating that the initial candidate was likely due to transient noise. Specifically, low-frequency transient noise was present in the LIGO Hanford and Livingston detectors in the minute before the time of the trigger.
