Figure 78: The moment of inertia I vs. the deformation parameter for the Crab pulsar over
the S5 run of the LIGO detector. The areas to the right of the diagonal lines are the experimentally
excluded regions. The horizontal lines represent theoretical upper and lower limits on the moment of
inertia. The lines labelled “uniform prior” and “restricted prior” are the results obtained respectively
without and with prior information on the gravitational wave signal parameters. From [2].
