Sensitivity Studies for Third-Generation Gravitational Wave Observatories
S. Hild, M. Abernathy, F. Acernese +136
Advanced gravitational wave detectors, currently under construction, are expected to directly observe gravitational wave signals of astrophysical origin. The Einstein Telescope, a…
Scientific Objectives of Einstein Telescope
B. Sathyaprakash, M. Abernathy, F. Acernese +222
The advanced interferometer network will herald a new era in observational astronomy. There is a very strong science case to go beyond the advanced detector network and build detec…
Photon pressure induced test mass deformation in gravitational-wave detectors
S. Hild, M. Brinkmann, K. Danzmann +14
A widely used assumption within the gravitational-wave community has so far been that a test mass acts like a rigid body for frequencies in the detection band, i.e. for frequencies…
Scientific Potential of Einstein Telescope
B. Sathyaprakash, M. Abernathy, F. Acernese +138
Einstein gravitational-wave Telescope (ET) is a design study funded by the European Commission to explore the technological challenges of and scientific benefits from building a th…
Upper Limit to the Transverse to Longitudinal Motion Coupling of a Waveguide Mirror
S. Leavey, B. W. Barr, A. S. Bell +12
Waveguide mirrors possess nano-structured surfaces which can potentially provide a significant reduction in thermal noise over conventional dielectric mirrors. To avoid introducing…
