Early release of the expanded atlas of the sky in continuous gravitational waves

Abstract: We present the early release of the atlas of continuous gravitational waves covering frequencies from 20 Hz to 1500 Hz and spindowns from -5e-10 to 5e-10 Hz/s. Compared to the previous atlas release we have greatly expanded the parameter space, and we now also provide polarization-specific data - both for signal-to-noise ratios and for the upper limits. Continuous wave searches are computationally difficult and take a long time to complete. The atlas enables new searches to be performed using modest computing power. To allow new searches to start sooner, we are releasing this data early, before our followup stages have completed.
