Subject
LIGO/Virgo/KAGRA S230524x: Retraction of GW compact binary merger candidate
Date

From
J. L. Wright at Australian National University <jennifer.wright@anu.edu.au>
The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, and the KAGRA Collaboration report:

The trigger S230524x is no longer considered to be a candidate of interest. This candidate included at least one detection prior to the merger time but no significant detections that included the merger, which indicates this candidate is likely a noise transient.
