- Author contribution statement
- I proposed the idea of testing the polarisation content of the gravitational-wave signal using the redundancy allowed by a three-detector network; this was the first ever test of the polarisation content of gravitational waves. I assisted with the analysis and co-wrote Section VII of the paper in which the test is described.
