Point Absorber Limits to Future Gravitational-Wave Detectors
W. Jia, H. Yamamoto, K. Kuns +198
High-quality optical resonant cavities require low optical loss, typically on the scale of parts per million. However, unintended micron-scale contaminants on the resonator mirrors…
LIGOs Quantum Response to Squeezed States
L. McCuller, S. E. Dwyer, A. C. Green +194
Gravitational Wave interferometers achieve their profound sensitivity by combining a Michelson interferometer with optical cavities, suspended masses, and now, squeezed quantum sta…
Point absorbers in Advanced LIGO
Aidan F. Brooks, Gabriele Vajente, Hiro Yamamoto +198
Small, highly absorbing points are randomly present on the surfaces of the main interferometer optics in Advanced LIGO. The resulting nano-meter scale thermo-elastic deformations a…
Improving the Robustness of the Advanced LIGO Detectors to Earthquakes
Eyal Schwartz, A Pele, J Warner +196
Teleseismic, or distant, earthquakes regularly disrupt the operation of ground--based gravitational wave detectors such as Advanced LIGO. Here, we present \emph{EQ mode}, a new glo…
Design and Performance of the Spin Asymmetries of the Nucleon Experiment
J. D. Maxwell, W. R. Armstrong, S. Choi +102
The Spin Asymmetries of the Nucleon Experiment (SANE) performed inclusive, double-polarized electron scattering measurements of the proton at the Continuous Electron Beam Accelerat…
Upgraded photon calorimeter with integrating readout for Hall A Compton Polarimeter at Jefferson Lab
M. Friend, D. Parno, F. Benmokhtar +12
The photon arm of the Compton polarimeter in Hall A of Jefferson Lab has been upgraded to allow for electron beam polarization measurements with better than 1% accuracy. The data a…
