Adding code to constrain Lorentz Invariance Violation (LIV)

Anuradha Samajdar requested to merge anuradha.samajdar/lalsuite:o3-liv-final into master

Description

This code constrains Lorentz Invariance Violation using GW signals and is a part of the regular analyses, being one of the tests of GR performed on GW signals. In principle, this can be run on any frequency domain waveform.

Review Status

This code has been re-reviewed by Stas Babak for porting to master as it was earlier based on a lalinference_o2 based branch, the review statement is here: https://wiki.ligo.org/CBC/TestingGR/LIV_Reruns_For_Porting .

The code had been extensively reviewed during O2 (also by Stas), the main project page being here: https://www.lsc-group.phys.uwm.edu/ligovirgo/cbcnote/TestingGR/O1/LorentzInvarianceViolation , the main review wiki is here: https://www.lsc-group.phys.uwm.edu/ligovirgo/cbcnote/TestingGR/O1/LorentzInvarianceViolation/Review .
