The LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, and the KAGRA Collaboration report:
The trigger S240420aw is no longer considered to be a candidate of interest. There was a high rate of noise transients (glitches) in the LIGO Hanford detector, which created spurious false alarms in the minutes surrounding the time of this candidate.
