A Gravitational Wave Detector for Post Merger Neutron Stars: Beyond the Quantum Loss Limit of Michelson Fabry Perot Interferometer
Teng Zhang, Huan Yang, Denis Martynov +2
Advanced gravitational-wave detectors that have made groundbreaking discoveries are Michelson interferometers with resonating optical cavities as their arms. As light travels at fi…
Design of a tabletop interferometer with quantum amplification
Jiri Smetana, Artemiy Dmitriev, Chunnong Zhao +2
The sensitivity of laser interferometers is fundamentally limited by the quantum nature of light. Recent theoretical studies have opened a new avenue to enhance their quantum-limit…
Active platform stabilisation with a 6D seismometer
Amit Singh Ubhi, Leonid Prokhorov, Sam Cooper +9
We demonstrate the control scheme of an active platform with a six degree of freedom (6D) seismometer. The inertial sensor simultaneously measures translational and tilt degrees of…
Cryogenic optical shadow sensors for future gravitational wave detectors
Amit Singh Ubhi, John Bryant, David Hoyland +1
Displacement sensors have a variety of applications within gravitational wave detectors. The seismic isolation chain of the LIGO core optics utilises optical shadow sensors for the…
Compact Michelson interferometers with subpicometer sensitivity
Jiri Smetana, Rebecca Walters, Sophie Bauchinger +11
The network of interferometric gravitational-wave observatories has successfully detected tens of astrophysical signals since 2015. In this paper, we experimentally investigate com…
