Show affiliationsWe report on an investigation of Virgo Commissioning run 4 data, dedicated to searching signals of the kind supposed to be emitted by inspiral neutron star binary systems. Given the still relatively limited sensitivity, the goal was to test some of the elements of the analysis chain, using simulated events, hardware and software injected in the data; the test allowed us to also characterize the detector stability during the run, for the purposes of the inspiral event search.
