Characterization of systematic error in Advanced LIGO calibration in the second half of O3

Ling Sun, Evan Goetz, Jeffrey S. Kissel +19

We present the probability distribution of the systematic errors in the most accurate, high-latency version of the reconstructed dimensionless strain , at the Hanford and Living…

Calibration Uncertainty for Advanced LIGO's First and Second Observing Runs

Craig Cahillane, Joe Betzwieser, Duncan A. Brown +13

Calibration of the Advanced LIGO detectors is the quantification of the detectors' response to gravitational waves. Gravitational waves incident on the detectors cause phase shifts…
