- Lundgren led development of a method used to subtract certain types of instrumental noise, leading to a substantial increase in sensitivity during the second observing run. During the period of both science runs, he was co-chair of the detector characterization group which was responsible for maintaining the sensitivity of all LIGO searches. He was key in solving several of the most problematic types of instrumental artefacts, and did many investigations into data quality issues relevant to events in the catalog. He also served on the six-person rapid response team which vetted many of these events in low latency.
