Signal recycled laser-interferometer gravitational-wave detectors as optical springs
Alessandra Buonanno, Yanbei Chen
Using the force-susceptibility formalism of linear quantum measurements, we study the dynamics of signal recycled interferometers, such as LIGO-II. We show that, although the antis…

The fate of classical tensor inhomogeneities in pre-big-bang string cosmology
Alessandra Buonanno, Thibault Damour
In pre-big-bang string cosmology one uses a phase of dilaton-driven inflation to stretch an initial (microscopic) spatial patch to the (much larger) size of the big-bang fireball.…

Quantum noise in second generation, signal-recycled laser interferometric gravitational-wave detectors
Alessandra Buonanno, Yanbei Chen
It has long been thought that the sensitivity of laser interferometric gravitational-wave detectors is limited by the free-mass standard quantum limit, unless radical redesigns of…
