Fiducial BBH - 128s

This is a test of injecting and recovering a BBH IMRPhenomPv2 signal in simulated aLIGO sensivity noise. The injection values of fiducial BBH events are defined here, for reference the 128s injection has the following parameters

chirp_mass=2.1
mass_ratio=0.9
a_1=0.04
a_2=0.01
tilt_1=1.0264673717225983
tilt_2=2.1701305583885513
phi_12=5.0962562029664955
phi_jl=2.518241237045709
luminosity_distance=100.0
dec=0.2205292600865073
ra=3.952677097361719
theta_jn=0.25
psi=2.6973435044499543
phase=3.686990398567503

Greg: In order to verify that the "peakyness" of the results above are due to noise, I have performed a zero-noise run, 1D posteriors available here, summarypage here. Christopher Berry comments by email:

I think it looks like that this is a feature of the noise realisation. If the P-P plots work out, then we know that we do the correct thing, and we will get a few results in the tails.
