Sensitivity Achieved by the LIGO and Virgo Gravitational Wave Detectors during LIGO's Sixth and Virgo's Second and Third Science Runs

We summarize the sensitivity achieved by the LIGOand Virgo gravitational wavedetectors for low-masscompact binary coalescence (CBC) searches during LIGO's sixth science run and Virgo's second and third science runs. We present strain noise power spectral densities(PSDs) which are representative of the typical performance achieved by the detectors in these science runs. The data presented here and in the accompanying web-accessible data filesare intended to be released to the public as a summary of detector performance for low-massCBC searches during S6 and VSR2-3.
