Tilt-to-length coupling in LISA Pathfinder: long-term stability

M Armano, H Audley, J Baird +75

The tilt-to-length coupling during the LISA Pathfinder mission has been numerically and analytically modeled for particular timespans. In this work, we investigate the long-term st…

Tilt-to-length coupling in LISA Pathfinder: a data analysis

M Armano, H Audley, J Baird +76

We present a study of the tilt-to-length coupling noise during the LISA Pathfinder mission and how it depended on the system's alignment. Tilt-to-length coupling noise is the unwan…

Temperature stability in the sub-milliHertz band with LISA Pathfinder

M. Armano, H. Audley, J. Baird +79

LISA Pathfinder (LPF) was a technology pioneering mission designed to test key technologies required for gravitational wave detection in space. In the low frequency regime (milli-H…

Forbush decreases and 2-day GCR flux non-recurrent variations studied with LISA Pathfinder

C. Grimani, M. Armano, H. Audley +82

Non-recurrent short term variations of the galactic cosmic-ray (GCR) flux above 70 MeV n were observed between 2016 February 18 and 2017 July 3 aboard the European Space Age…

LISA Pathfinder

Michele Armano, Heather Audley, Jonathon Baird +75

Since the 2017 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded for the observation of gravitational waves, it is fair to say that the epoch of gravitational wave astronomy (GWs) has begun. Howe…

Precision Charge Control for Isolated Free-Falling Test Masses: LISA Pathfinder Results

M. Armano, H. Audley, J. Baird +82

The LISA Pathfinder charge management device was responsible for neutralising the cosmic ray induced electric charge that inevitably accumulated on the free-falling test masses at…

Calibrating the system dynamics of LISA Pathfinder

M. Armano, H. Audley, J. Baird +75

LISA Pathfinder (LPF) was a European Space Agency mission with the aim to test key technologies for future space-borne gravitational-wave observatories like LISA. The main scientif…

Characteristics and energy dependence of recurrent galactic cosmic-ray flux depressions and of a Forbush decrease with LISA Pathfinder

M. Armano, H. Audley, J. Baird +82

Galactic cosmic-ray (GCR) energy spectra observed in the inner heliosphere are modulated by the solar activity, the solar polarity and structures of solar and interplanetary origin…
